Why so many questions about money on your account?
If not have enough money why stay here. Of course they want to know if you can support yourself in the future. Same in my homecountry. They don’t want to pay for hospital bills for emergency cost (just to make you stay alive) and don’t get paid for it.
You need at least 1,5 million Baht saved to have a decent life regardless what hospital insurance you have.
If not, life can be not as good as you think here in Thailand.
Maybe i am wrong, but I see “Farang” come here without savings and life can get really bad if you get sick or meet the wrong lady
We would love to move to Thailand for 8-12 months with our 2 kids ( 7&10) I have a remote job, however we do not have savings for a DVT visa. Is there any other way to stay in Thailand for that long? Is it easy to extend a 60 days visa. We are from the UK and the cost of living is really getting to us as a family. We would love to give our boys some freedom and explore Asia. Thanks for all your help and advice!
I am new to the group and I am amazed at what a shambles the whole situation is !! Rules seem to change on a whim, so many complicated rules and options. I have to question the Thai government and their policies, if they don’t want foreign immigration say so, make the rules clear and transparent. Like many other countries it’s all based on money ! It’s big business! Does Thailand not want skilled experienced people to bring their expertise and knowledge to benefit the country or is it just another money making scam !! Very very sad
Do the "schools" that do soft power DTVs help you with the application or do they only give you a statement and you still have to do the application yourself?
Also, how much does it usually cost for soft power? What's the cheapest you've seen?

Hi, how dangerous (war) and possible (visa) is it right now for an Italian (freelance web developer with no steady income, 46 years old) to move to Samui? What visa would allow me to live in Samui without immigration problems?
