Hello! I got the Visa just this noon. I plan to apply it for my spouse, dependent DTV in Vientiane. Could his job type (unemployed or others) affect the application and approval process?

Hi everyone, now that I have my DTV visa my husband will apply for it as a spouce through my visa.

Do you know what he should put under occupation? He has a fulltime job in Denmark and his boss has allowed him to take a 6 month vacation.

Do we write employed full time for his occupation or should we write other and explain that he will not be working in the period we are there?

Thank you for your help!

— vietnam / Thai soft power DTV? —

Has anyone done this in Hanoi / Ho Chi Minh and was successful in the application?

Accommodation:

Did you put where you stayed in Vietnam for the first address and your home country address after? (Was told you can’t use a Thai address?)

- can you stay in a HOSTEL? Or does it need to be an air b&b or hotel room via booking or Agoda?

- for Vietnam address: - what info do you need to provide besides:

- the booking confirmation for the 2 weeks you stay in Vietnam, receipt of payment (can that be what you paid online shown on your confirmation page?), pic of entry stamp, pic of you in front of your accommodation?

Employment details:

- everyone seems to say issues if you don’t say unemployed.

- if some money has come into your bank statement only for one month (Nov-Dec statement) via PayPal; can I still say unemployed /no salary since the rest of the 6m including the most recent statement shows basically nothing?

(And yes, I have enough in my account for the 500,000 and ok on that front.)

Thanks for all your help!

Hello! Please help.

For the people who applied successfully via soft power - what did you select in the employment detail section? If we select that we are employed, do you think they will reject the application and ask us to apply with the "remote worker" option instead?

Hey guys, I’m a remote worker in Hong Kong and want to apply for DTV (workcation). My contract states that my work location is “any designated location” and I’m employed by a Hong Kong entity. However, my company also has a thailand business registration (they can relocate me but my salary needs to be reduced which I don’t want to).

Am I still eligible to apply for DTV?

I have a question regarding my work permit and its connection to my visa and stay status. I arrived in Thailand on Mar-2023, holding a Non-Immigrant B-A visa, also known as a "Working Holiday Visa," which allows me to stay for approximately two years. In due course I obtained a local part-time job to keep myself busy and was granted a work permit.

The spirit of the working holiday visa is to provide stay with flexibility.

My concern is, if I decide to terminate my part-time employment, would it affect the validity of my visa/stay? I've heard that with sponsored business visas, the visa/stay status is directly linked to the work permit, so if the employment is terminated, the visa is also cancelled. Does the same rule apply to my situation?

Thank you in advance

Can anyone help why is it asking for this on my application

I have a question about extension based on marriage, using salary as proof.

I am married and recently used my work here and salary as proof of finances. I am going to leave this job, and ideally would like to have a couple months off before working again.

My question is, does this void my visa or create complications next extension? Ideally, I’d rather stay on the visa I have but if I have to renew with different proof of funds, I’ll do it.

I expect I have to change, but I’m thinking, they only needed 3 months proof for the last extension, so if I start a job in a few months, will it even matter?

Extension done at Samut Prakan if that makes any difference.

Hi, esteemed and knowledgeable peers. Question about a non-b. I'm working at school on a non-b and work permit. But soon I'm heading to China to travel... On the chinese visa form it asks if I'm employed / unemployed. If I say employed, it wants to, and presumably will, contact the school. I don't want any problems from the school, as I'm leaving due to their nonpayment of some teachers when they give a months notice. So, I'm not telling them I'm leaving. If I put unemployed, (I then won't have to include the school contact details) the chinese consulate will see I'm on a non-b and employed? So does a non-b mean I'm employed or is it OK to put unemployed with a non-b visa on my passport? Or should I simply do a border run first to revert the visa back to a 30 day visa on entry thing and say im unemployed, thus bypassing all the issues? Hope that makes sense!!! Cheers..
