I have TM30 scenario and don’t know where else to ask.

I’ve been asked to move into a house that is inside a Thai army base.

My concerns are:

Is that even plausible? I can see a farang going into immigration with a military address on a TM47 and it being a problem.

The TM30 itself can be created by the resident of that home? No lease, family if you will. I’ve had to create my TM30s in my current location, so I suspect that might not be a problem other than being located on military grounds.

Thanks!

Malaysia-KUL.

Applied last Monday 9 December, but still silence. Anyone waiting too?

Hello

I am currently applying for the DTV visa from South Korea and have received an additional document request:

"Proof of Accommodation in Thailand: Lease Agreement or Invitation letter to the Royal Thai Embassy, Seoul. (Typed with sponsor’s signature including reason, period, pp no) to certify your stay (Upload Sponsor's PP and ID copy, etc)"

Since this visa cannot be applied for from within Thailand, how is it possible to submit a Lease Agreement? It is unrealistic to sign a rental contract online without even seeing the place.

Has anyone else encountered this request? If so, I would appreciate it if you could share how you resolved this issue.

Hi thought I’d share our experience after reading a few post about immigration at Don Mueang asking questions on re entry to Thailand after bouncing out , we arrived in Thailand in September on the 60 day waiver and extended it by 30 days , we then flew to da nang for 5 nights this week and arrived back yesterday and at the counter the officer asked why we were here to which we replied holiday , she then called a supervisor who took us to another desk round the side as asked us to take a seat and asked how long we were here for , we told her for 60 days and we would ask for extension again for 30 and we fly back to the uk in march , so we were just open and honest with our plans and showed her our flight booking , she went away done some computer work and went through our passports then called us over and stamped us in which the usual 60 days and no further questions asked , now we came over and did similar last November on a 60 day tourist visa then extended then went to Cambodia for 5 nights came back stamped in for 30 and then 30 extension and flew home in April then as above we came back in September so think they are concerned with the amount of times we come in and out , we also feel the outward flight booking made a big difference as they are not daft and obviously counted the 60 and 30 and saw the flight out matched that, I would also add that they were extremely friendly and professional with no sign of any resentment in fact we even had a laugh when one lady officer came over and flopped into a chair and closed her eyes , you need to sleep I said , yes it’s too busy she laughed 😂

Hi Everyone.

Is there any issues you have to face by immigration if you go through land border with DTV.

I am planning to go from Cambodia(Poi Pet) to Thailand(Khlong Luek) border.

I have heard some people have to wait for a long time at immigration and some people have to pay extra charges.

I suspect embassies from some locations have started “the deal” with the agents in terms of visa applications, and you will not get your DTV visa by yourself. It is kind of mafia thing and some of you guys from First World countries will not understand it. There is a system taking place and I am saying this for you to pay attention on where you are applying. I just got stamped my visa now and it is until 28 May. They started counting from the date the visa is issued.

Anyone else do this? How long did it take you?

just asking, maybe out of context, i am foreigner, and i got Kbank already, i just seen when i scan buy something appear kbank paylater? is it applicable for immigrant foreigner who working in thailand?

I’m on a non O based on retirement exp 7/7/25 I got it in Phetchabun using the 65k p/m route. We are in Kohl’s Pha-ngan on holiday and flying to Vietnam in a couple of weeks so thought I’d go to the immi here to get a single re entry. The officer here refused it saying I need to show financial statements? I tried explaining the previous but he said boss wants to see bank statements. This can’t be right surely ?

Hi everyone! I have a final question. 😬

Thanks to the support from this group, I was able to submit my DTV application myself. Thank You all.

I applied for a DTV visa at the embassy today. The front officer said my application was okay, but my wife didn’t get a DTV visa. Instead, they issued her a Non-O visa.

I raised a complaint and requested that both of us be granted DTV visas. The officer mentioned that the consulate would decide within two working days whether to approve my wife’s DTV visa or confirm the Non-O visa.

If they only issue her a Non-O visa, what should I do next? It’s okay?
