My ED visa is expiring soon and I plan to apply for DTV as digital nomad. I m Singaporean and have a remote part-time job from Singapore.

I had Ed visa for past 2 years before DTV but have also been working remotely part-time with Singapore company while holding that Ed visa.

When I apply for DTV, do u think it’s better for me to show my contract with Singapore company while holding Ed visa here?

Or should I do a new employment contract showing recent dates?

Anyone’s experience with applying at Thai embassy in Singapore?

Hello

I am on a 1-year Ed-visa currently which will be expired in August. I am preparing to apply for DTV in Cambodia. I am aware that I have to cancel my Ed-visa.

1) Can I do it after my DTV is approved and when I am back in Thailand?

2) If I must do it before I apply for DTV but decide not to and do it only after my DTV is approved, are there any consequences?

Many thanks in advance kha _/\_

Does anyone know why immigration tells people to get the DTV and not the ED for example? Is it because you need to have more money for the DTV?

If parent is on ED visa for language, can minors get dependent visa or how does it work with children and their visa? (Home schooled).

I’m curious about if I’d qualify for a DTV visa, I do not work online but own rental properties. Would this be considered for making income outside of Thailand? Or would it be best to apply for a DTV visa for language? I’m interested in learning Thai!

Thanks 😊

🇹🇭 Has anyone experienced “comments” in the Thai immigration system?

Some travelers have reported receiving shorter stays or facing stricter questioning at the border after entering Thailand multiple times within a short period. In certain cases, visa agencies later confirmed that a “comment” (internal note) had been added to the traveler's immigration profile.

These comments are not visible and not officially communicated, but immigration officers can see them when scanning the passport. They may be triggered by recurring patterns such as:

Frequent entries and exits within a short timeframe

Short stays outside Thailand between entries

Behavior that resembles visa runs or long-term stays without the proper visa

This raises questions about how such comments might affect future entries or visa applications, and whether they can be viewed or removed.

Some common suggestions include:

Applying for an ED visa, which is possible if at least 45 days remain on the current permission to stay

If only 20 days remain, it may be too late to apply from within Thailand — applying from Cambodia might be safer

Using the e-Visa system, if applicable

Waiting a few months before returning, to allow the situation in the system to “cool off”

Any experiences or advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance!

Hi, which DTV activity do you recommend for someone living in Phuket (I can do sports), and which country do you recommend for applying? I currently have 1 year of Ed visa learning Thai. Thank you.

Has anyone applied for ed visa(non immigrant visa) through evisa process?

I just wanna know how long it usually takes to get the visa. Thank you.🙏

Embassy in Hanoi. I very appreciate group for providing information. I had ED visa and have done visa cancellation in Bangkok. I have applied my visa application 04-04-2025 got approved after 4 working days 10-04-2025 no additional documents were required. Here is my list:

- photo

- bank statement and my account balance

- passport scanned all pages and noted which page have entry stamp

- certificate from company(show my salary and which date i started work and work remote) and personal income tax for 6 months

Do I need to cancel a three month education visa (first one - no extensions) before I leave the country? Or does it naturally expire. I plan on having another ED visa in the future so don’t want any issues

I keep finding conflicting information online

Thanks for any help ☺️
