What is the DTV application process from the UK and when does the visa start?

Brandon ************

no, but the DTV is just a multiple entry visa. Every multiple entry visa works the same way.

Is the Nomad Visa valid for 3 years or until my intended exit date?

Brandon ************

@Luit ****************

that's between you and the embassy. But visas are effective from the day they are issued regardless of what's on the application.

@Phill *********

each embassy gets to decide what they will and won't accept.

It's just an email pdf that you need to print and keep with you to give to passport control.

What proof do I need for visa renewal when living with my partner in Thailand?

Brandon ************

Each immigration office sets their own requirements. You need to go to your immigration office and ask them for their list of requirements.

Also you don't say what type of visa you are on now and what type of extension you'll be applying for so it's not even possible to give you a basic answer.

Brandon ************

the visa has a a start and end date on it when it's issued by the embassy. The start date is the day it is issued and the end date is 5 years after that. That is when the visa ends.

When you enter Thailand you get 180 day entry stamp. That's just your permission to stay and has nothing to do with how long your visa is valid.

Brandon ************

Assume you are talking about the DTV as there is no digital nomad visa.

The DTV is valid for 5 years from the date it is issued. It doesn't matter what dates you put on the application, it's a 5 year visa.

For proof of location you can use drivers license if it has your address on it, or a utility bill with your name and UK address.

Everything is online.

The visa starts the day it is issued.

Is it easier to apply for a Non O visa in the USA or do it in Thailand?

Brandon ************

@Sinsupa *******

yellow book has nothing to do with applying for a visa. Each immigration office sets their own requirements for visas and extensions. You would need to go to your immigration office and ask for their list of requirements if you want to apply for a visa.

Brandon ************

you can get both an O or an OA visa from your home country. The O visa is not only available inside Thailand. That would make absolutely no sense. There's no such thing as a visa you can only get inside Thailand.

yes a residence certificate is a common requirement. But even then most banks won't do it if you're on a tourist entry. They want you to be on a long-term visa already
