Got the VISA from Bangladesh as a Freelancer

* Application Date: 11th February

* Visa Received on: 7th April

Documents Submitted:

* Freelancer.com Profile Screenshot

* Transaction History from Freelancer.com

* Proof of Income and Agreement with my full-time client from Canada

* Proof of Income from my client in Australia

* Payoneer Statement (Payment gateway)

* Remittance Certificate from my bank (showing remittance received over the last year)

During the interview, they asked a lot of questions about my clients, but they were very helpful.

Mistakes Made:

* I mistakenly used a ChatGPT-generated template for my agreement with my Australian client, leaving a placeholder [Enter your client's company address here:] which I forgot to change. They pointed it out during the interview and allowed me to correct it with a laugh.

* I mistakenly submitted 5 months and 27 days of statements instead of the required 6 months. They mentioned they would reopen the statement field for me to re-upload the correct document.

Hello, I am currently in BKK on a visa exempt 60 day stamp.

My partner is going to Turkey at the end of the month and applying for DTV.

Before he leaves we were thinking of eloping here in Thailand (we’ve been together for quite some time, but for visa reason eloping would be necessary since I don’t meet the monetary savings minimum on my own). I was considering staying back in Thailand for the week or so he’s in Turkey, he’s planing on applying for DTV while he’s there. He’s a fully remote work from anywhere employee, I don’t see him having issue getting DTV.

Ideally I’d then get DTV by being his spouse.

Would this work since we’d only be married in Thailand for about a month?

Would I then need to leave Thailand myself to apply for spousal DTV?

Hello everyone - maybe a bit of a weird one 🐶

But, I am hoping of making a long term move to Thailand going down the DTV route but initially coming in as a tourist. I’ve been preparing my dog for a move (she came with me from Mexico > Europe) but just noticed that the import certificate is only valid for 60 days.

Does anyone know if these dog import certificates can be extended or have experience with owning a “foreign” dog in Thailand for a period longer than 60 days? Or can dogs do “visa runs” too, seems unlikely as paperwork is so difficult to import/export in the first place.

Any advice super appreciated! Already reached out to Relo4Pets just waiting for them to get back to me and was curious to see if anyone else has been through this 🐶✨

Couple visa requirements

We make approx 2700 usd combined after medicare deductions (3100 before) and would be able to do the 25000 deposit.

Does this sound like sufficient funds to qualify for a long term visa?

There's possibility of approx another 600/month on top of this

Appreciate your help

Hi I just wanted to share my experience obtaining the DTV. I applied from Hanoi, Vietnam on 03/21 and used the soft power option, using a cooking school. I submitted the following documents:

- My Vietnam airbnb receipt

- Confirmation letter from the thai cooking school

- Proof of accommodation and flight to Thailand

- A PDF containing 6 months worth of bank statements combined with my offer letter from my US employer. Youre not required to submit an offer letter and i think they only wanted 3 months of bank statements but i wanted to demonstrate that i had sufficient income and that i do not have a thai employer. My boss is also fully aware that im in thailand and supports it

I was asked on 03/24 to submit my Vietnam entry stamp and business registration letter from the cooking school. My status immediately changed to pending approval

Officially approved on sunday 03/31.

When I arrived at BKK airport, all I did was show my DTV visa on my phone and I got my stamp. No questions asked.

The whole process was smooth and straightforward.

What is my best visa option folks?

47 year old semi retired self employed landlord from UK. 9 property rentals income more than enough to live from. I manage the properties remotely. Return home on Wednesday and want to know what visa is best to apply for until I turn 50 for retirement visa? Looking to return July was n longest visa possible. I will pay for bronze elite visa if I need to save any hassle but rather not If a better option.

Hi new here wondering what I need to do to legally retire here?

Hi everyone,

I applied for my DTV visa on April 1st via the official website in Hanoi, Vietnam, and my visa is still pending approval. My flight back is scheduled for Wednesday at the end of the day, and I’m getting worried about the timing because Monday its holidays in both countries 😢

Has anyone experienced a similar situation? Should I contact the embassy immediately to get an update, or is it normal to wait a little longer? I’d really appreciate any advice or recommendations you might have.

Thank you very much!

Hi, can someone please advise if a Thai Bank account can be used for a DTV application. Thank you.
