Hello😊My husband and I are in the Cha-Am/Hua Hin area. We did our 60 day tourist visa. My husband has a doctor at Bumrungard hospital. He gave him a medical visa certificate to give him 90 days extension. The immigration office in Cha-Am, where we were told to go because of our address, they said we needed a medical visa from a government hospital. We are going to go to Hua Hin hospital, that is where we were told to go. To try and get that form. After that we would like to apply for the Medical DTV visa. Has anyone had trouble getting a medical extension visa? Also, any advice on getting the medical DTV? We were going to Vietnam. Is that the best location? Thanks in advance 😊

UK Doctor will not do medical certificate as they no longer offer this service. Any suggestion how I get this form completed for my visa application please Tia 🙏

Please help

How do I get certificate of criminal record clearance

Medical certificate

I am UK citizen and applying for the retirement visa

Any help appreciated 🙏

Many thanks to all the responses and great information! I now see that the Non O marriage visa is the best way to go. This is exactly why I joined this group. Thanks again and I can’t wait to get there and start meeting people and begin my retirement! 🙏🙏🙏😎😎😎🇹🇭🇹🇭🇹🇭

I am getting ready to retire to the Korat area of Thailand with my Thai wife, probably in the next 2-3 months. I am trying to understand the OA long stay visa, and I am using the Thai E-visa official website, but I’m having some trouble understanding just what I need to do to get my application approved. I am from the US so hoping that there are people on this page from the US with experience having recently gone through this. I meet the financial qualifications so that’s not a problem. But can anyone explain the medical certificate and the certificate of criminal record clearance? Where do I get those? I have posted the page and it’s basically numbers 5-8 that are making it difficult. Any help/advice would be much appreciated! Thank in advance.

Sharing as some people said you can’t get it unless you’ve done your first 90 day report.

This is my second visit in Thailand with my DTV, this time I’ve been here for 1 month, obtained my temp resident certificate 3 weeks ago which was needed to apply for this.

Managed to get my Thai Car and Bike licence today converted over from my UK. Note I don’t have a full bike licence for my UK licence but I do have a current CBT certificate which allows me to ride a 125cc where as my UK licence only allows a 50cc, not sure if that made a difference.

Apart from all the required paper work, I had to watch a 1 hour video and answer 4 questions at the end which were also asked during the video randomly.

The physical test if you can call it that was interesting to say the least lol and involved pressing the red/yellow/green button several times when the corresponding traffic light changed, and some make sift accelerate and stop peddles when the light changed on the second test.

I went to an appt with an Endocrinologist in BKK to refill my meds, the Dr recommended testing every 3 months. I asked the hospital if they can write a letter for visa support and this was their reply:

"Greetings from Samitivej Sukhumvit Hospital.

Regrettably, we do not have service to provide letter for visa application.

We could only provide you medical certificate and you may contact Embassy for more information and further assistance."

Is this normal? Is the medical certificate enough? Should I try another hospital?

Hi All

Aussie here , going to apply for a Long Stay OA visa , all requirements including medical no issue , except I’m time poor (long story) and to get a chest X-ray will be a bit of a hassle (anyone in Australia knows this 😉) , my question is , has anyone received an OA visa recently without a X-ray? Is it worth the risk to submit without the X-ray ? Or do I just did to make the time and get it done ?

Thanks for the advice

Has anyone here with a DTV been able to get a Thai driver’s license? If so what did you do , documents needed ?

I’m applying for a multi non imm O in UK. I don’t recall the medical certificate necessary before. I have had this visa before. Is it necessary and how did you fulfill the requirements in UK?

Newly settled in Bangkok, I’m told that I can show my Califonia Drivers License at the DLT and they accept it for granting a Thai Drivers License/ID Card. What other docs, paperwork or other requirements besides Passport must be in-hand before showing up to apply for a Thai Dr. License?
