@Greg *******
do they need a long term rental agreement to open the account with that agent?

ChatGPT will sort the contract out for you. There is no minimum income requirement for the DTV, business owners in receipt of dividends have been approved for the DTV.

There is no limit to the hours you work online, no minimum income.

If you can find work online then you can get a DTV which gives you a 5 year multi entry visa, Must work online only for a non- Thai company. Other option find a Thai company to give you a job and sponsor your non B visa.

Very true, surprising they issuing the METV for workcationers. They do note alternative visas can be issued.

Tokyo Embassy wants applicants to demonstrate not just that they are working online but that the work justifies a 5 year visa.

@Greg *******
Tokyo embassy seems to be stricter than Fukouka Embassy with the DTV.
Andi ***********
You can enter Thailand at any time once the DTV is approved. 3 months in advance is the recommended limit before applying,

As others noted DTV or retirement are your options for a year. METV a multi tourist entry visa gives you around 9mths.

Depends on your age and purpose, the visa costs vary.
