Is it advisable to hire an agent for Thai visa applications instead of applying myself?

@Hasan **********

Uh, yes you can. That’s why you can use soft power or any other method. If you don’t work remote or have 500k thb, then you shouldn’t be applying for the DTV under workation…. Neither will agents allow you to cheat and put themselves at risk by pretending to be your employer or lie for you.

How does using a guarantor work for the 500,000 THB requirement in Thailand?

Brian *********

Anonymous participant you have to apply from the country you’re in. If you go to a different country to apply, then you’ll just produce bank accounts from your home country, but they may ask for some additional evidence they are real if they doubt authenticity.

With an agent you’re actually going to do more work than on your own… it’s not just more expensive, it’s more annoying too
