yes a fee for each person - original applicant, dependant wife/husband and child/children

I suggest you email the Taipei embassy to see what is your best option to apply for your wife.

You will not be able to do it locally in Thailand. It will have to be outside of Thailand.

@Greg *******

very informative! Thanks 🙏

@Greg *******

some banks would do it on retirement visa but I’m not of age to get the retirement visa

@James ********

I’ve tried with this visa as well but they all said I need work permit

Base on my experiences of trying to do this for over a year, no matter how many legalized documents you have, they won’t open it for you unless you have a work permit.

There may be the odd one here or there that would do it but it’s very rare.

Another option is to open a Wise account, this way you can do payments in Thailand and also transfer money etc.

@Janelle ****

sorry I’m

Not sure what an ARC is?

There is a line for ID number close to where you write your name.

I put down my country’s ID number but they never cross referenced or checked it.

@Janelle ****

yes you use the application that says Manila on it. Also in the ‘other’ line is where you write down DTV.

@Paul ******

I asked another group member about this as well, but apparently it is the correct form 😆
