Hi all.

I need some assistance in applying for a DTV visa.

Me and my husband is from S.A and he work in Thailand as a teacher.

I have a Ed visa study Thai but it ends now and I have to get another visa.

He's school don't assist with a letter to follow him on Non O Visa and I know to run borders with a tourist visa will also just be temp and short term so I was looking into a DTV visa.

I applied for Preply but not active yet but like to start to working online with DTV visa

My question is.. If I don't have a proof of income now will Thai Immigrations approve my registration?

I also notice they request a registred buss documents.Will Preply approved assist on application?

I notice the amout of 600 000 THB saving in 6 months bank statements and its not the problem.Only my recent income and registration.

Any advise will be so much appreciated.

Thank you🧘‍♀️

Hi all,

I have 2 questions:

1: Im currently on an ED Visa, which runs out end of Juli. Does that influence. my application procedure?

2: My bank account does not have the required 500K baht for 3 months (only 2) does this matter?

3: I read this on a thai embassy website: **All supporting materials that are issued outside of Thailand and the US must be accompanied by certified English translations and notarized by an Embassy/Consulate or Ministry of Foreign Affairs only*

^ does anybody know the specifics on this?

I'm looking to see if anyone has a similar history to me and has any advice about getting a DTV.

I have been in Thailand since mid 2022 - I started on a 6 month METV, then went to an ED Visa for a year, followed by another ED Visa, the second of which was less educational than the first.

Has anyone with a similar history had issue getting a DTV and would you recommend using an agent? I've seen first hand the pull agents have with officials in country, but I am not sure about at embassies abroad. I'd be looking at the Soft Power route as unfortunately I'm not over 50 and my income comes from a vet pension.

Hello I am from Australia and am 41 and im looking to spend a year living in Thailand to test the waters before I fully commit to selling up and coming over full time. I'm not looking to take on and work and have enough funds to support myself during my stay. What visa will I need to do so? Sorry in advance for being uninformed on the subject!

I recently relocated from Krabi -> CM. I went to CM immigration today to extend my tourist visa. But they would not extend it because my 'expired' ED visa issued in Krabi was not 'canceled'. This is the first time I've experienced this. In the past, I can't recall having to cancel long term visas. I thought they just expired and I leave the country. Lesson learned I guess.

I would like to know what is most advisable:

a) attempt to leave the country tonight / tomorrow morning and return.

b) fly to Krabi on Monday morning and overstay 3 days

Thank you.

It helps to answer interview in Thai 💕 officer will be nicer 💕 first applied last year in my home country, confident with bank account n yearly income but was met with (we don't have bilateral agreements with Thai govt so we don't know what to charge)

So to rush to get in I did ED visa which helped me to learn Thai เรียนภาษาไทย but 😩 unable to travel out. So I took the plunge & one way ticket out. Lesson learnt to check on bank holidays it was a grueling 18 days wait with just an appointment date. But I think 2 points to learn from this

1) Glad I got an agent, pay 100USD to save on headache, help me check on docs & even advise me retaking photo showing my ears and no teeth to prevent rejection. They help to push along documents.

2) Sometimes you just have to push through, follow instructions, be there early not on time, before office opens (everyone had appointment at 9.30am) what a cute arrangement 😂 just persevere. Be prepared for the weather (correction : thks for helping below, so I be sure not to miss deadline reporting save fine money 😊)

I apply dtv depend for my wife and ed visa for my son at 2nd June (monday) in vientiane laos and pay the visa fees at embassy that day too.

Is there anyother ppl apply same day with me.

May i know the process of yours. My app show pending documemt check still today.

Hi guys I’m a university student and on an Ed visa, also due for a visa extension at the end of next month. My university has told me that now people from countries who require police clearances for extensions have to do police clearance every 3 months and they are not valid for 1yr anymore. Anyone else heard of this? TIA

Hi! Curious to know if there is some regulation behind which school I could apply to and how that would affect my visa approval for the soft power courses?

What do the schools give us as proof for visa application?
