To those of you who have successfully applied for the soft power option of the DTV what did you provide as proof of "Document indicating current location"? In the past for Tourist eVisa applications I have provided an electricity or water bill.

I have the DTV visa

I'm buying a new scooter from Honda garage, and they need a copy of my residence permit.

I don't yet have this.

I am currently in a sublet. The original Thai landlord can peovide me TM30, copy of their title deeds and ID, but the rental agreement is between them and the person I am subletting from.

Is it possible in this circumstance for me to get the residency certificate?

DTV Visa - Financial Evidence

Financial evidence: amount of no less than 500,000 THB, e.g. bank statements, sponsorship letter

The financial requirement for DTV Visa is an amount of no less than 500,000 THB, demonstrable through bank statements or sponsorship letter.

If I attach a letter from the bank certifying the total balance, can it be sufficient?

In case the embassy asks for the bank statement, can I send it later?

Could the embassy reject the application if I do not attach the bank statement directly?

Thank you for your opinion!

Is it true that even tho we have a dtv visa we still have to go every 3 months to the immigration office? In order not to pay a fine? Cause I have to exit every 180 days anyway. I don't know why people told me to go to the immigration office after 3 months .

Hello everyone,

Can someone please direct me to the website for 90 day report? Can the first one be done online or need to be in person? I can’t seem to find it online unfortunately.

On another note, does the TM30 need to be done every single time by my landlord when I leave Thailand and come back from any overseas trip?

Thank you!
