Watched the video, but wished the Soft power option was elaborated further, like, what will be deemed acceptable and what will not . How many months minimum of enrollment into one of those soft power options to get the approval

I understand from a Singapore citizen who checked with the Royal Thai embassy in Singapore and was told it wasn't available then . That was like 2 months ago.

One participant got his DTV approved , using a Dental treatment from a Thai dental clinic. This participant said that , the appointments were for one dental work listed , and also added two other treatments further down the timeline for good measure. Uncertain which city he applied in , but not all Thai embassy would approve it . So like all those earlier comments, go check with the embassy which you will be applying from

Don't come

@Clay ********

watched that too but Little clarification on the soft power application route . No mention of how many months minimum of a particular course , be it Muay Thai,or cooking , or music events, to be eligible for the DTV

@William *****

you are so spot on .. they might fine tune it and make it difficult, and the domino effect of higher rents , etc

William Boyc I had similar questions which you posted, costs of a one year Muay Thai vs the border bounce, or a vacation to other SEA cities, and what will be acceptable for the cooking classes, as I would not want to risk my baht application fee . Yes , if someone could show denials of the DTV , it would be helpful

@William *****

I would guess so

I would also want to know about applying the DTV using the soft options instead of the remote work..

My only option is the 'soft' route too , so I would like to know more ... TIA
