Hello, does anyone has applied for DTV VISA (Soft power) from Spain?

Hello, does anyone has applied for DTV VISA (Soft power) from Spain? Can someone tell me the expected waiting time until approved? Any rejection?

Has anyone recently left Thailand after completing their 180-day stay on a DTV visa and tried to return a few days later? What are your experiences?

Modification to a previous question due to personal circumstances:

Although I have a 90 Non-O visa, Based on visiting Thai family, our plans changed a couple of weeks ago and now have to return to UK after only 58 days in Thailand. Can I still use the visa even though I cannot now extend it by 12 months as was our original plan? I was wondering how to I complete the TDAC form is it now classed as a 'Holiday' or can I sill put visiting family in Thailand as 'Other'?

We last left Thailand after a 58 day visit early April this year, so would I be classed as suspiscious under the new immigration clampdown? Does the 90 day visa have to be 90 days in Thailand or or it is not that restrictive?

Are there official announcements that they won’t grant DTVs in the near future?

I have a question about the health check for retirement visa . Going to apply in Australia. Been looking at doing this for a while and now have the 800,000 in a Thai bank.

Question is what checks do they need and can it be done in Thailand in my next trip before applying for a visa.

Cheers.

Advice please !! I have entered thailand twice already this year on visa exemption I am coming again in dec for 6 weeks. I am reading that now I will have to get a tourist visa if I come again. Is this true?? Also I am a lodger here in the uk so don't have utility bills in my name so how do I get a tourist visa if needed ? Thanks for any advice 🙏 also I do have my driving license which has my marital address on it still so a copy of that would be ok I guess.

Hi folks my wife and Daughter are from Loas Pakse and we like to go Thailand shopping, restaurants, macDs, night markets, my wife and Daughter travel freely though I have to watch how many times I cross the boarder I normally spend 100,000 bhat per visit, then return visa to Loas, I ask Thai immigration 30 days is ok for me but they laughed, is this a deliberate action as they introduced the 60 Visa ? Now I bought return tickets , and tickets to Ubon , booked hotel, makes me feel conned by Thailand. My thoughts now I booked another way to Loas , there loss of a good Traveller with a few quid.

Applied on Wednesday at Thai embassy London and got this yesterday asking for more documents. Some of the documents they asked for I uploaded with original application . Is this generic ? Also for the company letter I am a freelance in my occupation and work for different company's outside of Thailand so I provided a letter from myself and contracts from my previous 2 employers. Should this be ok ? Has anybody had similar from London ?

Got my DTV in Sydney Australia yesterday. Lodged on 6 November explained that my existing visa expires 19 November.

Stayed at pending document check until 20 November. Got a email 21 November Approved.

No problems with the application. No additional documents. Got the DTV on the Softpower platform Thai Cooking classes with House of taste 6 months.

Thanks for the advise read on this forum.

Entered at CNX today with no questions (pre-filled TDAC, laminated DTV). Funny story though: I put the date of a flight out that I picked randomly in March (using an onward air service) because I always worry about being rejected for not having an onward ticket. They stamped my passport for DTV, but put the exit date as the date in March. I was planning to take a trip out sooner than 6 months anyway but be warned!
