I'll be applying from Hanoi for the DTV1 (workcation) soon! Has anyone had issues with applying with 500k in the bank for less than a month?

Documents:

Freelance contract

Portfolio of freelance work (10 pages of work samples)

Status of remote work (signed by boss, dated July)

Proof of monthly income / payslip for (Wise bank)

Proof of 500k in banks (amount would have been in bank for a week or so)

Appreciate any advice. Thank you

Hello everyone,

I have heard so much conflicting advice that I’ve decided to ask here.

I wanted to apply, here in my home country, for a retirement visa but I’ve been told that it’s not possible anymore.

1. I have a healthy Monthly income from military and civilian source. But im being told that proof of monthly income is no longer accepted for a retirement visa?

2. I want to figure out if it’s possible to get a visa that doesn’t require border runs.

3. Do I apply for one type of visa and then change to something else once in Thailand?

I know that these questions might seem foolish to some, but after so many conflicting answers, my brain is going to explode. 🤯

I am applying for a NON-IMMIGRATION TYPE O RETIREMENT VISA from the UK and it asks to show income of 65000 a month for 3 months OR a current balance of 800000. If I apply using the current balance route how long would the 800000 have to have been in your account for ?

I'm applying for a Non-0 visa; which Thai banks would provide a letter and a one year statement showing my monthly deposits of 65,000 baht?

Hello group ✨

I have a question about the legality of online employment when applying for the Soft power Muay Thai DTV visa. Is it legal to work online for an overseas company in this visa category? From what I’ve read in the group and online, many who applied for soft power are showing income from overseas (and they ask for proof) so it seems ok, but it’s not the workcation option and legally it seems a bit grey.

Is it better to say unemployed or student?

I’m applying from Hanoi this week and a little worried now with posts about rejections…

Thank you 🙏🏼

Has anyone applied for DTV as a Freelancer? I know about the portfolio and invoices that need to be shown. I have also seen some forums talking about tax returns as well and want to know if proof of taxes is required.

Morning all i have a few question guys/girls how long before application (DTV) do they require the 500,000 bhat in your personal bank account can I just send it over from my business account? i use dividends as and when I need to I only pay myself the 12k via PAYE rest is around 60k divs over the year....how do I prove all this and as business owner what do I show them for proof its mine? companies house documents proving my company ? Anyone in a similar situation that could advise be greatly appreciated.

Question⁉️

I am applying for the Thai DTV visa from the Washington Embassy. I’ve seen many posts mentioning that applicants have included a letter of intent and bank statements showing their monthly income. However, the official website only lists the required documents as proof of current location, financial proof of 500,000 THB, and an employment certificate. Would adding these extra documents be beneficial? And if so, where would I submit them since there doesn’t seem to be a designated place?

Thank you in advance for any insights!

Hello, my wife is going to extend her non-o(spouse of thai husband). Few questions

1. We live in Bangkok, Should we go to Chaeng Whattana goverment building or IT Laski for this extension

2. The TM-30 was filed before the visa stamp was issued, we didn't move but do we need to file again?

3. Do I (thai husband) need to provide proof of income?

4. Any current document list available?

5. Visa expires Sept 26, is there a cutoff date for extending visa?

I recently extended by ‘retirement’ visa @ Jomtien immigration and picked up this for those whom it may help…
