What is the process for applying for a DTV Visa in Vietnam and what additional documentation might be required?

Pe ****

I want to apply for the DTV. How does one go about documentation for the “soft power” part of the application?

For example, through studying the Thai language or cooking school.

DTV. Trying to understand the 180 day rule.

Does it mean:

1. After 180 days you have to leave, cross into Laos and come back the same day? Or:

2. After 180 days you must leave and stay out of Thailand for 185 days before you can return (180 days’ stay in a calendar year)? Or:

3. Something else?

Agree. It seems like the Thai government is trying to dissuade people from moving there.

Secure and reliable banking is a must for me.

Thanks. I was wondering how a toboggan would hassle you for money. 🛷 Plus there’s not that much snow that falls across most of Australia.

Further research reveals Aussie synonyms for bogan: ocker, yobbo, and feral.

@Dave *********

Yeah, I don’t think agents are paying for hospitals, traffic lights, fire fighting or social services.
