Dear all, I’m starting to work in Thailand on the 8 of December. However as I understood, i cannot make my visa B now because I’m needed the WP32 documents that the employer is obtaining by the ministry of labor.
However, the company can request the WP32, only on the 8 of November, in order to have 30 days delay before the 8 of December.
Is that correct ?? I cannot start my visa B now ? Right ?
Hi, will I be accepted on my partners DTV if we are engaged and have children together? I’m getting mixed messages about this. We have been together for 10 years and have children, bought a house together etc.
Or is it strictly only accepted as a dependent on his visa if we are officially married? Thank you
Hi. I have Bangkok bank with over 800 000,- and I am going to search for non OA visa. I am 53 and my question is which health insurance should I get? I have checked one AIA and will cost me 35000 baht.
i just got the re-entry permit to keep my non-o 90 days " alive ".
want to ask :
1) when i leave thailand do i need to tell the immigration officer who stamp the depature stamp that i have an re-entry permit or they will know from their computer system ?
2) if i enter back to thailand do i need to tell the immigration officer that i have an re-entry permit so that they will stamp the " 1st duration depature date that i enter on my non-o " or they can see from their computer system and stamp back the same depature that i use to enter on my on non-o first day ?
I included bank statements from 4 banks: Bangkok Bank, Wells Fargo, Kbank (joint account) Kbank (personal account). Totals for all the bank was over 1 million for 3 months.
The additional documents requested were pay stubs, business license of the company I will work for and the passport/ID of the owner.
I included the pay stubs from my old job in Thailand which were reflected on my Thai bank accounts. I also included the invoices of some of my contract work which were reflected on my Wells Fargo account. My new boss's passport was expired, so I included that as well as their drivers license.
For the business registration I included a copy of their LLC, EIN registration, tax registration and Treasury department registration. Maybe a bit of overkill, but I had access to all those, so I sent everything.
No issues mentioned about my Thai accounts. I didn't send them my old work permit, no pages from my passport, nor my tax information from years of working in Thailand. I did have those ready if needed. All in all it was a smooth and quick experience, other than the angst!
I’m curious if any families that have successfully received their DTV, if you were able to show 500,000 for the whole family vs per person and if so where? My friend got her families approved in Cambodia in July but I’m just curious if there was anywhere else.
No embassy has answered my inquiry emails back yet 😅
