What are the recent updates on the Digital Work Visa (DTV) in Thailand, and what are the application requirements?

@Todd ********

I know they have some people like that but in the nicer more expensive restaurants seems mostly 30 /40 year olds spending freely. With nice motorbikes etc. Many booomers have a fascination with money and not spending it again just an observation.

in Chiang Mai at least most of the nice cafes, restaurant, bars are frequented by digital nomad types spending plenty of cash. Makes sense to let them stay here longer and for easier.

Looks like Thailand will open the doors, they must have realised most of the over 50s on retirement visas are cheap Charlie’s.

If you can’t solve these simple tasks like opening a bank account perhaps expat life is not for you.

What are the options for getting a retirement visa in Thailand if I don't have the full 800,000 Baht in the bank?

You can live in Thailand for 6 months easily without proper visa. If you’re new to Thailand it’s common to do this. You can do land border crossings twice a year (Jan-jan). I’d come and enjoy yourself for a few months then do the long term visa.
