Dumb question here.

Have anyone experienced or heard of the immigration not letting you into Thailand even after getting the DTV visa?

We are interested in coming to Thailand long term from Canada, and curious what visa is best to arrive on. We are mid 30s, have a few rentals as our main source of income.

We will be enrolling our daughter in an international school in Phuket and

We also want to start up our dog business there.

What would be correct visa for us to apply for ?

I was thinking the guardians visa from the school as I’ve heard they assist with getting it but unsure if I can open/run a business on this visa?

Any recommendations for good visa agencies in either Bangkok or Phuket that could help us?

Thanks 😊

Hi all!

I am planning to cancel my Non B Visa from Thai Embassy here in Philippines because my contract from my employer has some issues and I would like to travel as Tourist or apply a Tourist Visa again in a Thai Embassy here in Philippines.

Question is, does the Immigration still be confuse and ask me why I have cancelled Non B visa and why did I travel as Tourist? 🙏

Hi all. The school that I was working for is planning to cancel my work permit. Is it correct that my visa will automatically be canceled, too? Is there anything that I must do before going for a boarder run? The school isn't helping me to explain this thoroughly.

I applied for a non-b visa in Ho Chi Minh City on April 9 but have not received any response. Can you tell me if there is any possibility that the consulate will return the results by the weekend, especially in Ho Chi Minh City?

I have a job that is close to the onboarding date and I still have not received the visa results yet

I would like to thanks all advises got in this group. I sent my application on 15 May, and today was approved! I guess in less than 48 hours, because 15 and 16 was public holiday! Thank you!

P.S. I sent almost a book of information 36 pages, and I've had for 2 times non bvisa and 4 consecutive visa run... Thank you again! Now I am looking for an account to avoid the double taxation because now they now everything about me, so better to don't be naive...

EDITED: P.S. my husband, who as stated below,, already has his Non-b and a registered business in Thailand, and will be my sponsor. My remote work is commission based.

To obtain a DTV visa, there is the 500,000 thb required, some people stipulate that 30 days are accepted while others stipulate 3 months are needed.

The 500,000 thb is not a problem, however, there is also the "letter of sponsorship" option. Has anyone applied with the letter of sponsorship?

My husband has a Non-B with work permit and registered business, and I work remotely for a company in South Africa.

Initially we were going to go the Non-O dependent visa route, but due to the remote work I'd actually prefer the DTV (can't work on Non-O obviously).

I'm currently in Thailand on a 60-day visa exempt and realize I would need to apply from outside of Thailand.

My ultimate would be to find employment over here and also just go the Non-B route, but it's a bit tougher than expected because I unfortunately don't hold a degree.

Thank you, and looking forward to receiving positive and helpful comments.

My family’s passports were damaged so we had to replace them all. I’m taking the new passports to immigration to get our visa stamps. I have a police report stating the cause of damage, and letters from our embassies requesting new visa/entrance stamps. Do I need to take anything else?

Hi everyone. I need to change reason of my visa extension from education (Master) to working. I want to know if there is someone did this before and whether I should apply for a work permit before or after obtain the new extension? Thx in advance.

I see quite a few people on here have cancelled their DTV visas and transferred onto a work permit and Non B

Does anyone know after you do this- could you reapply for a new DTV visa let’s say after a few years (after you’ve worked for a few years in Thailand)
