Hey guys,

So I just got asked for my birth cert. I've uploaded passport, bank statements, drivers licenses... All the typical stuff and they're now asking for a birth cert, however, I don't have one and it can take weeks to get on in my country...

Can i go to the thai imigration here and figure out another way for proof of ID? How can I talk to someone that deals with the documents to at least give me an extension on the "Incomplete applications over 14 days will be automatically removed from the system."?

I'm a little lost at the moment, and don't want to stay in laos much longer, haha!

Hi, is it true that dtv visa cannot be cancelled. I asked at the immigration and the immigration officers said it cannot be cancelled. Does anyone know or experienced about the dtv visa cancellation?

Hello everybody.

I’m seeing some people are getting questioned when coming back into Thailand with dtv visas..

If I had about 350k baht in the bank and the rest cash to show for my funds would this be acceptable has anyone had this experience yet?

Dear members.

I have a expert visa on my old passeport, and got my new passeport from french embassy in Thailand (never left the country with it).

Can I leave the country with both passeport and comeback on the same visa (carrying both passeport)?

Many thanks

So I went to a random local bank to ask the question of opening up an account on a DTV status? The teller told me I either have to be employed by a Thai company or be on a retirement visa. Is it safe to say that this is not possible whilst being on a DTV?

Please let me know your personal experiences and suggestions if there is a possibility of being successful. CNX location.

Khop khun Krub in advance 🙏🏼
