Hello everyone, I am looking to apply for the DTV visa through taking cooking class route. I am a trader so I do not have any payslip for the past couple years. All my income is passive. I do have the 500K in the bank. Would they still require the me to show the payslips history even tho I go with the taking classes route. I have the options to either apply in Viet Nam or US. What are the chances I will get approved with this route and not being able to show payslips? Thank you all in advance

Hi, we are a group of friends are looking to apply for softpower DTV and move to Bangkok in october. There is 7 of us 3 male and 4 female. The guys want to do muay thai while the girls want cooking. We have the money requirement and are looking for help with the rest required. We would be applying from Serbia.

Thanks!

I'm doing my DTV with a Lanna Cooking Classes, and after get back to Thailand I'll have 6 months of class with the place. So my question is: I need to keep doing this cooking classes for all long of the 5 years? (or some activity during the whole period of 5 years?)

What have people been paying for 6 month cooking class for DTV? Class frequency?

So with all the 6 month cooking and muay thai classes, what happens after month 7, let’s say if you return to Thailand and immigration starts asking questions. Does one just continually renew those courses or take a risk? Because there isn’t anything on the visa itself that says how you qualified unless when they scan the QR code more info shows up. Thoughts ?

For anyone considering using House of Taste cooking classes for their soft power DTV application, be advised they’re charging THB15,000 now instead of THB10,000 for the 6 month course. Apparently they raised prices after Songkran…

Hello, can’t see how this would hinder my application at all but thinking to go down the soft power route as I am interested in both cooking classes and cosmetic treatment in Thailand which I know falls under the medical category. In my cover letter would it be okay to evidence both of these or would it be better to just stick to one and provide documentation for it. I am applying through the London embassy.

do u need payslip/ showmoney for applying dtv with softpower> muaythai cooking or medic appointment? from 3rd countries(thailand neightbour countries)?

Thinking about doing a class for a visa. Any suggestions on schools/classes?

has anyone been approved for a cooking class or other non-muy thai activity in Phuket?
