The wife can get a dependent visa on the back of the husbands retirement visa. No need for tourist visa and border runs

Two options. 1) Husband gets retirement visa and you come as dependent. Costs 1900 THB each per year if you do it yourself 2) DTV - One of yiu takes a course in say cookery or Muay Thai. The other comes as dependent. Cost is 10k THB each for 5 years plus Soft Power course. Rental- buy outside Thailand where you can own 100%, you know the market and will get capital appreciation. Do not buy anything here unless you know the market well and are experienced local investors.

Search through posts. There have been success stories applying from Pakistan. Pretty sure Pakistan applications are decided upon in Bangkok not locally though so may take a little longer. Good luck.

Are they going to pay for the EOR costs and increase salary to cover tax?

It does not matter how long ago it was registered as long as it is the latest one. For example.ple if you moved into your place 90 days ago and TM30 registered and not moved then that one is fine.

Anonymous participant 332 The thing is we do not know if any of these are on DTV. It has not been publicised. They often mention overstay but it cannot be that with the DTV.

I cannot see it "Cooling Down" unless the Bank of Thailand or banks HQ issue new guidance and they usually follow the BoT. Scammers have ruined it and the pressure is from on high to stop it.

Agree. It was 12k in first 3 months

Anonymous participant 304 Exactly. Not one case ever posted here or anywhere else

There has been not one actual posting where the 500k asked for at any border. Air or land. As above where are these rumours coming from? Not one post in this group about it
