Hello,

I am currently on an METV visa that ends mid January and I would like to switch to a DTV and I have some questions to which I couldn’t find specific answers (sorry If I overlooked existing answers)

1- I was thinking of trying to get a DTV visa before my METV visa ends - does this impact the acceptance of the visa?

2- can I go to a neighboring country make the application and come back to Bkk with my METV visa before getting the DTV? Or I need to stay there and wait to get it?

3- for the 500k baht, should I get proof of having them in my current account or does it work if it’s in the savings part of the account?

4- do you know by chance, if I am on a DTV visa and at some point I want to do a volunteering work here, do I need to cancel the dtv and get the specific visa for volunteering ? Or can I can accumulate or sort of have a specific authorization to just do a non paid volunteering for a short period without invalidating the dtv?

Thanks in advance 🙏🏼

Hi everyone, I'm making this little message because I currently have a METV visa (valid until March 1st). I had done this visa in advance when I was still in France and the DTV visa didn't exist yet.

I'd like to know if I can apply for a DTV visa even though my METV visa is still valid? I went to immigration today in Hua Hin but they couldn't give me any information... They told me to contact the embassy where I would be applying.

Another question: I'm French and currently in Thailand. If I want to apply for a DTV visa in Vietnam, for example, but online, I have to apply when I'm in Vientam, right? This may be a silly question, but I was wondering, since I'm applying online, if I can't stay here in Thailand?

Thank you in advance :)

Hello! I have two questions regarding the DTV visa. I have an American passport and I am currently on a METV that would end on November 15. But my next visa hop needs to be by October 13th. I want to go and apply for the DTV in a neighboring country when I do my october hop. Do I need to cancel my current METV in order to apply for the DTV? And if so how?

Also, Im on the METV because I was taking a career break for the past 6 months, I do have my own LLC and some money is coming in automatically from that but not alot(maybe around 600-1000 USD per month). I do have over 500k baht in my American bank accounts, but it is 3 accounts combined, is that okay? And would I be rejected if my overall amount in my account has been going down because I've been on a bit of a work break?

Thank you in advance for anyone that can answer my questions :)

Hi,

I have an METV visa and i wanted to go visit a neighboring country for few days every month or every 2 months.

Now I know that in theory the purpose of this visa is being able to come back unlimited times within 6 months but I read someone was questioned about what they were doing here and at my first entrance I also was asked what I will be doing here and the agent acted surprised when I said visiting for 2 months so I am wondering if someone with the same visa had faced issues and whether it’s better not to go and come back very often.

Thanks

I'm from Italy and I have always had the METV visa (multi-entry 6 months visa)

And now I was wondering if it still made sense to do it, since now if you leave Thailand and come back they give to you 60 days. METV for 180 days It costs 180 euros..

In your opinion it is always worth doing this type of visa or advise me to make a new visa, such as the educational visa?

Thank you 🤗

On a METV Visa - I have stayed 105 days over the past 140 days. Planning on doing a week trip outside of TH - is immigration going to give me any problems?

And if I re-entered with the DTV, would it be any different?
