They want a sponsor letter for my spouse. Is this acceptable? Ai says it should but I’d rather hear from someone who submitted and received dependent visa!

Dear Sir/Madam,

3. Transportation costs, for both local travel within Thailand and any required long-distance travel.

4. Healthcare expenses, covering any medical costs that may arise during their stay.

We are financially stable, with one account containing [XXXX USD/THB], which more than meet the financial requirements. I confirm that my spouse will not be a financial burden on the government of Thailand.

I have also included a copy of my DTV visa and my passport biodata page. My spouse understands and agrees to comply with all Thai immigration laws. We intend to utilize the visa for frequent trips in and out of the country and longer stays. We will ensure that we do not overstay and will meet all required reporting guidelines.

Recently changed to a Non-O. I asked about being able to leave the country and I was told if I left before the first 90 days I might not be allowed back in. Was told exits could be discussed after the first 90 days. Nowhere in the process was mentioned a single or multiple entry visa. The reality is I only want to be here for maybe 5 months out of the year, leaving when it gets too toasty for me. It seems Thailand leaves entry up to the discretion of Immigration. Can someone add a bit of clarity to this for me? Thanks.

I have a question for the group what kind of visa do I need to apply for if I’m on social security disability to live in Thailand and does anyone know the cost . Also how do I get started and where do I go to do it .

Just entered with my DTV which was approved back in December last year, the only question asked is if I was only one person, very easy, smile, wai and respect the officer, you'll have no issues whatsoever.

I want to stay at my gf house for 7 weeks,she rents,what happens if the landlord wont fill in a tm30,

is it correct that the thai retirement visa request the bank deposit of 800k - 3 - month be4 application and 3 month after and if use after maximum 400 k can be reducted and again filled up 6 month later?

Hello, I have received my 90 day non O visa today via email but the start day is from today for 90 days. I wasn’t planning on going to mid April and put my intended travel dates as this on the application. Do they stamp this visa when I arrive and therefore get 90 days from them ?

Any advice would be greatly appreciated. 🙏

Has anyone ever made 90-days report? Agents/Brokers are saying that DTV visa holders do not need to do 90 days report. Such exemption is not mentioned in the official website; the immigration officer did not attach a white paper for 90 days notification to my passport though.

Is it a problem if one was late for 90day reporting and now a have note on passport about the fine paid?

can i apply for dtv if i own a company that does electrical work in uk .

i have my subcontractors. so i could manage a company from abroad for a few months. Has anyone here had a similar case?
