Depends on the immigration office. My pal has to do it in Jomtien. In Chiang Mai need to do it too

You also need a letter saying you can work remotely and specifically in Thailand. You could also add that you will not be working with Thai people or Thai companies or organisations.

Anonymous participant I am pretty sure you can. If you can do it for tenants online why not yourself?

The TM30 has to be completed within 24 hours of you arriving at accommodation. The landlord or owner of the property has to do this. Not the tenant of guest. They do this online

@Cherie *******

For many jobs in Thailand only a Bachelors is required. Probably not going to get a high paying international schools position with that though!

I am thinking along same lines as you are. I had to cancel "O" to get "B". There was no "Converting". As for cancelling DTV that is an interesting point. When I wanted to cancel my "O" they would not do it at BKK - they told me to go back to issuing office ie Jomtien. If the same is applied to DTV this might cause some inconvenience if anyone wanted to cancel.

If you leave without a re-entry permit is your ED not automatically cancelled or is that just for "B" and "O"?

Yes, inside or outside Thailand you can apply

" Now I'd like to apply for teacher jobs on nice Thai islands - how is this possible with DTV? What could be done?"

You can apply while on a DTV - if you get the job you need a different visa.

Is there any guidance on converting DTV to another visa? I have not seen it in writing anywhere. My experience with a Retirement Visa was it had to be cancelled before I could get a "B" for a WP. There was no "Converting"
