Has anyone gone through the process of renewing their OX visa? And can share their experience? My initial five year term ends next August. I reached to the consulate in NYC where I had initially obtained the visa and they directed me to Thai immigration. Thanks.

If you already have the DTV digital nomad visa, do they check again the 500.000THB in your bank account upon rearrival? 🤔

Hi everyone I’m interested in getting a destination travel visa but I’m curious to know if anyone has experience with the Los Angeles thai consulate in regards to how long the 500,000 THB needs to be in the bank for. Thank you :)

Hey guys,

I’m planning to go to Hanoi, Vietnam or Bali, Indonesia in two weeks to apply for a Muay Thai DTV. Today, I got in touch with a Muay Thai gym in Chiang Mai, and they told me that for the DTV application, not only do you need a bank balance of at least 500,000 THB, but it also has to have been maintained for at least three months.

This caught me off guard because just a month ago, they said holding it for one month was enough. So I’d really appreciate some advice from anyone who has successfully applied for the DTV in Hanoi or Bali.

Should I go ahead and try applying in Hanoi or Bali, or should I wait another two months until my bank balance meets the three-month requirement?

Thanks in advance!

Please correct me if this is completely wrong or just a puerile question, but do I get it right that, no matter via which Embassy you apply, it's likely that DTVisa applications for Digital Nomads where the applicant is forcing to keep doing his/her remote job abroad are supposed to hand work contracts/arrangements, portfolios (or just one of the last three ones) AND documents that show monthly income (based on their profession) while DTV applications of people who are willing to participate in Thai Soft Powers (like cooking class or Muay Thai course) are "only" supposed to include a bank account that is well balanced (B 500,000, for the past three months at least) and the confirmation of that particular Thai soft power/cultural course?

Sometimes it seems unpredictable which argumentation is received well by the Thai embassies.

Is it counterproductive to include proof of a remote job arrangement of your company (thus, a monthly income) when you are determined to "only" participate in a Muay Thai course? Some Embassies can be very erratic when it comes to the constellation of your application's legend 🙄

Thanks so much for your attention!

hello

I understand that I need to keep 500,000 baht in my account for more than 3 months.

But I'm short by about 11 days

Can I still apply for a visa and be accepted?

Or should I wait until the 3 months are up before applying for a visa?

If I were to apply for a visa, 500,000 baht would be left in my account for 79 days.

Please help me guys

Hi everyone, I’m planning to apply for the DTV via the Thai Embassy in Jakarta while I’m currently in Bali. I have a question about the 500,000 THB bank balance requirement.

Is it enough to show a closing balance of at least 500,000 THB in the most recent bank statement, or do they actually require you to maintain that balance over multiple months (like 3 or 6 months)?

And if they do check the last few months, do they only look at the closing balance of each month, or do they care about the average daily balance or full-month consistency?

For context:

I’m a frontend developer working remotely, and I receive my salary in USD. I can provide proof of 1.5 years of consistent monthly payments if that helps support the application.

If anyone has applied through Jakarta and can share their experience, I’d really appreciate it, thank you!

Hi there! I wanted to ask if it’s possible to apply for the DTV Nomad Visa as a consultant. I work for a marketing firm as a consultant and wasn’t sure if that qualifies under the program. What sort of documentation are required from the company Also, is there a minimum monthly salary requirement, or do you just need to show a certain bank balance instead? Would really appreciate any clarity or guidance on this. Thanks in advance!

We are going to do an extension 1 year for non o base on marriage visa for my husband ( Australian)

at Samutprakarn office. We went to extended the 60 days visiting Thai wife due to the visa date is not enough for 2 months seasoned of 400k.

the 60 days visiting Thai wife will be expired on Aug 22. And the money is ready now, so 45 days in advance we can apply to extend 1 year in on Jul 09.

My question is.

1. How long for consideration will it count? 3 weeks after apply which is around Jul 30 or maximum 1 month will be Aug 09. Or it will be Aug 22 the day of current visa expire?

2. After apply visa and they accept all docs, do we need to keep 400k in the bank no move? Or show them bookbank or statement again on the day we go back for result? Can it move during waiting but the day we back only need to show 400k balance? If anyone can share experienced Samutprakarn will be appreciated.

Thank you very much 🙏

Do I need to maintain 500k THB during visa runs for extension ?
