Seems like jakrata is backlogged. I have seen post here that people are approved in one week and changed my plans to apply from Vietnam to Indonesia (jakrata). Now I am seeing post that people are approved in a week in Vietnam. In bali almost 2 weeks now, the application is not even opened yet, still at initial stage of document check (1)

Hey everyone. I'm in Thailand on a DTV and I was wondering what the process is of buying a motorcycle. I've been renting for a few months, but planning on buying one for myself. Do I need a resident certificate? Insurance? Registration? I've seen a lot of mentions of "green book" too. Anything I should be vary or mindful of?

Thank you krub 🙏

This is my first entry into Thailand using a DTV visa. I plan to stay in Thailand for 60 days and then travel to another country for a week. Since I won't be staying in Thailand for more than 90 days, I don't need to submit a TM47 (90-day report). Even in this case, do I still need to obtain a TM30 from my accommodation? Or, since I don't need a TM47, I don't need a TM30 either?

I have a Thai daughter and I plan on applying for the 1 year Non O visa next year. Does the 400,000 baht need to be in a Thai bank account or can it be a US bank account or Wise?? Also how am I supposed to get a Thai bank account if I don’t have the visa yet? Has anyone tried opening the bank account with just a birth certificate of their child? I’m getting mixed info on the internet so I just need more clarification. Thank you!

This isn't clear to me so please can someone clarify: when we put 800000 in a bank account in order to get a retirement visa, does it have to stay deposited and never go under 8000000, or can it be withdrawn as we wish, at any time ( but having a smaller balance)?

A question. Came to Thailand on 14 Oct. 2025. Leaving Thailand on 12 Jan 2026 and then applying for DTV or METV and go to Thailand, then I can only enter Thailand 1 more time in 2026. ?

Hello to everyone here 😊🙏

I got my OA visa very easily and smoothly without any hustle and drama.

Next week I am coming to Thailand. Could someone explain to me step by step what will be the next steps ?

I am providing you with some information:

-I will stay in my girlfriend's house but we will travel a lot and stay in different places in Thailand for short or sometimes long time ( between 3 days and 2 months).

- I want to open a Bank account or two.

- i want to do a motorcycle license

and

I want to get a driving license for car ( European driving license and international driving license for car are there)

Thank you in advance for any good advice and healthy suggestions

🙏😊🙏

Don’t know if anyone can help but if you can thank you. Is there a way you can come to Thailand for 6 months a year. My wife and I would like to do this from the UK.

We are both retired 😊👍

Looking for advise

Hopefully moving permanently to Thailand asap, I have no Thai address, no Thai bank account, I qualify for retirement visa and the funds are no problem. Which is the best way to achieve this.

This is genuine cry for help so please genuine replies.

Thanks in advance

I live in Bangkok and need a residency certificate.

Currently on Non-O 90day and have a TM30.

Seeing a lot of contradicting information online about the requirements and how to get one. If someone could set the record straight for me that would be much appreciated!
