Hello,

I applied for the DTV under the “soft power” category, and I have an upcoming interview at the Royal Thai Consulate-General in Osaka. If anyone has gone through a similar interview, could you share what kind of questions or topics were asked? I would really appreciate any information.

I am presently in Thailand for 6 weeks. My last visit was in March for a month. At immigration I was asked about my return ticket and asked if I have family in Thailand. I told them that I am just travelling around, which I am. I gave an Airbnb address and not a hotel which may have aroused suspicion. I am returning to the UK on 16th November and returning to Thailand again mid January for just under 60 days. The flights are already booked. I am planning to use the visa exemption once again. Is this wise? Would I be better applying for a 3 month tourist visa or would that be considered a waste of time and money? If I were to plan another trip in May next year would I be better advised to go for the Multi entry visa? Any advice would be appreciated 🙏

Can anyone confirm if I require an exit arranged out of Thailand within the first sixty days of arrival want to get everything in order before applying for a multi entry tourist e visa.

Is there any visa that Ethiopian passport holders can get for a 6 month or 1 year stay?

The language school I spoke with in Hua Hin said immigration excludes Ethiopian nationals from that visa.

Hi all, I would like to be in Thailand for three months, working remotely on a contract. I have a couple questions:

* Can you only apply for DTV within three months in advance before departure?

* Not knowing for sure if they approve my DTV (something could always go wrong I guess), I cannot yet know if I can legally stay for three months. Therefore, I cannot book a flight yet. However, I believe it is a requirement to give the flight number to apply for the visa. How does this work?

* Are investments considered valid capital? For example, if I don’t have the full 500,000 THB in my bank/savings account but can meet the amount when including my stock investments, can I submit proof of those to satisfy the requirement?

Thank you very much!

Greetings from Poland 😀

We are a retired couple in our 60s.

We plan to spend five months in Thailand each year.

We have paid for our hotel and purchased our plane tickets.

The Thai Embassy in Poland advises that all visa applicants must submit their applications online via thaievisa.go.th.

What type of visa do you recommend for regular, five-month visits to Thailand? Arrival in Thailand in October, departure in March.

I would like to complete all the formalities before departing for Thailand.

I would be very grateful for any help and support 😀🙏

I have a question to ask, I am Italian, can I apply for a multi-entry tourist visa online if I am outside Italy?

I am a US citizen who will be traveling in SEA for 7 months and the plan has me entering Thailand at least 3 times, none of which will be over 60 days on each. I am aware of the May 1st requirement for an ETN, but my question is: can I request multiple entries the first time upon arrival or should I apply for a multi-entry evisa before arrival.

Hi

Looking to stay for a year before i commit to living Thailand, what is the best way to do this ? Is it best to apply for 90 day visa and extend or just exit and re enter every 60 days ?

Any good advice appreciated
