Where did you stay in Hanoi while waiting for your visa ?

There are hundreds of places on the booking platforms but I am looking for a personal recommendation.

Obviously I want to be in or close to the Old Quarter and AC is a must.

I'm budgeting for around 20usd a night but I am getting too many hostels and dorms coming up.

Any hidden gems out there someone can suggest ?

Hi, I am new here. So please pardon me if my questions are not so smart.

Can you please give me your top 4 of things I have to arrange or know before moving to Thailand. I won’t need work. I just want to live there. Together with my dog.

Hello everyone , I plan to stay in Thailand under DTV visa for a few months ( probably 4/5 months per year) and I wonder if i can rent apartment there with this visa ? Any recommendations for cheap accommodation in Bangkok?

Thank you so much!

Trying for a none 0 90 day from the uk but they are asking for flight number and accomadation i have not booked to go yet what can i do

Dear All

I am going to apply from Laos for DTV visa Muay Thai soft power.

The embassy requires to pay in cash “Thai bhat” , I would like to know if it is easy to exchange money to Thai bhat around there “ like is it from any exchange shop we can get Thai bhat “ ?

Also if you have any recommendation of the area name that you suggest to book Airbnb or hotel which will be convenient to go to the embassy.

If you also have any tips to keep in mind while applying the application please drop it in the comments I will really appreciate it.

Thanks and Prayers for all 🙏

(UK) Travel information question on the DTV application for soft power

For intended date of arrival, I have a flight booked from the UK on 7th April, stopping in China for 1hr 40 mins, and I land In Bangkok on the 8th April

So I will write intended date of arrival as 8th of April on my application.

For intended date of departure- I don’t have a outbound flight booked yet. I was going to

Book that once I had confirmation of the DTV or not (I’ll still take the flight regardless of the outcome)

So I was going to write intended date of departure 24th September 2026 (170 days) ?

For the last port of embarkation - I should choose China, correct? As I stop there to change flight for Thailand.

I need to pull up my flight info for my flight number.

Lastly - accommodation in Thailand

How much detail did you all give for this? I haven’t booked anywhere to stay yet. Could

I write the address of a place I MIGHT stay at, for the applications sake? And maybe just write duration of stay ~ 7 days or 10 days or something?

My girlfriend is Thai and she has a condo in Bangkok so should I also include this on the accommodation and duration of stay ? As I would also stay with her - or is there no need, and I don’t need to give this much information, unless they request it

Hello,

I am applying for a workation dtv in Hanoï.

In the adress in Thailand section, what do you put? I have booked hotel for 12 nights waiting to find something more permanent. What do you I answer in other adress in Thailand?

Is it ok to have only the first 12 nights planned?

Also for the way I arrived, I don't have tickets yet as I don't know when my visa will be approved. Do I just put a flight number without booking?

Thank you
