Just seeing how possible to get a DTV visa here in UK. I read it can only be obtained from outside of Thailand . I have the requirements for this visa apart from Hospital Appointment and Dental appointment , both of which I do need, and /or a cooking Course which I would like very much ? It seems no one is willing to give appointments unless I'm actually in Thailand?

I have in the past, had retirement visas, as I'm well over 50, but as I now have to be back in Uk for a few months each year, the DTV is ideal.

Visa Exempt or Tourist visa with extension give 3 months, just need 5 or 6 months! I wouldn't want to do boarder bounce. And yes of course there's the retirement visa if DTV not possible . Many thanks

Probably an obvious question to you guys but I couldn't find the answer in the search so here goes....helpful answers only please, if you can't be civil please don't post x

I want to get a dtv with cooking as my soft power however I can't find any longish courses. If the course is short can I still get a dtv?

Does anyone know a reputable cooking school that might be able to help?

How much did you guys pay for your cooking course to apply for the DTV ?

I came across an ad earlier that charges ard 9000 THB over a 5-year course with only 1 lesson Per mth - over a zoom seminar

.... I wonder if this type will get approved 🤔 ?

This 5-yr deal seems pretty good as the applicant do not have to re-sign up for another course everytime we need to renew for another 180 days

Anyone tried to apply with something like this and got your approval for the DTV ?

Pls share any better/cheaper deals if you have any 🙂🙏

Hi group :) Regarding DTV Soft-Activities Embassy Vienna: I hope there are people here who have applied for the DTV via eVisa from Austria through the Vienna Embassy and can help me. This embassy seems to be very strict. Muay Thai courses are only accepted from 4 months (less than 4 months are rejected), no seminars are accepted that serve to get to know Thai culture (but other embassies have approved them). Can anyone recommend a reliable and inexpensive Muay Thai boxing school or a cooking course in Chon Buri that has been approved? In other districts too, if they are cheaper. I just thought that it wouldn't hurt to actually go to Thai boxing (😄) every now and then :) Thank you very much for your help :)

Hello, I am from Samui,

I want to issue DTV on courses basis.

Did someone do it and has reference to places that provide approval for cooking or Muay Thai lessons?

Thanks in advance

Hello, can you recommend a reliable company to apply for DTV visa in Phuket and share with me who has Muah Thai course or cooking course?

Hey! Have a question regarding DTV visa.

How long do you have to be enrolled in a course in Muay Thai or a cooking course

Hej! Har en fråga gällande DTV visa.

Hur länge måste man vara anmäld på kurs i Muay Thai eller en matlagningskurs

For those who have received a DVT going the cooking route, has anyone had success with a school in Bangkok apart from the Bangkok Thai Cooking Academy?

I thought I had initially seen courses in the $500 range that qualified for DVT, but now they’re over $1,000.

Yes, $1,000 is still a bargain for a 5 year visa. But there’s also the possibility that we’ll have to reup every 6 months, and leave the country as well. Those costs would certainly add up over 5 years.

What soft power course cheapest. I want to book one.

Thanks

Any recommendations for DTV approved places in Chiang Mai? Open to muay thai, cooking courses, and even language courses if eligible.

Ideally for a 3-6 month program.

Will be applying in Laos and I do meet the financial requirements
