Hey Guys,

I am looking into doing a 2 week to 6 week Thai Cooking course to attain a DTV visa. I emailed the school and they said their students who have already taken the course have been given a 5 year visa (must leave every 180 days).

I can't help but think and feel it can't be true, doing a 2 week up to 6 week course and getting a 5 year visa is ringing some alarm bells in me.

Has anyone here done this and been successful?

I would really appreciate some insights and proof if it has worked for you.

Thank you very much

Question do i need a plane ticket to go outside thailand?

Im already dtv holder and we have roundtrip taiwan to thailand, do i need to purchase other ticket?

For the non o visa (over 50) are there any restrictions on how many years can stay using this visa? I read 10 years is that correct ?

I noticed the long stay OA visa says "proof of permanent residence in the country where the application is submitted". So just wondering if it really not possible to submit from anywhere else?

Got my retirement visa in January this year with multi entry re entry permit. Left Thailand end of March and am returning this Wednesday. What do I do at immigration when I return please?

Hi. As scrolling through the internet is giving me puzzled answers, can anyone please share the recent list of documents, needed for the retirement visa? Was the process long if you apply by yourself? Will appreciate heads up.

Applying for a O, OA or OX visa.

How do you prove your monthly income? Does it have to be deposited into a Thai bank account? Or just have proof from your home bank?

If you obtain a long-stay visa are you expected to remain a resident of Thailand? Can you get one but not use it immediately?
