quality of scanned data is not just something about their system, but also a lot depending on the quality of the picture you upload. When they give you a possibility to correct a submitted application without paying again, one of them they would have to do for free then. You are warned you should check, so it is your responsibility. What I think they should enhance is preventing the scan overwrites data you entered yourself and it should ask for confirmation immediately after scanning.

tax laws are changing often, so difficult to decide about that. First they want to tax money you bring in, latest proposals are money brought in same or next year will be tax free, we will see...

Adnan Khairi The application sure could be betteer designed, but in the end the applicant is responsible.

Possible enhancements would be:

- make own input before scan passport impossible.

- prompt applicant to correct scanned data and confirm after scanning.

- ask applicant to confirm scanning second time

With these simple measures it still is possible to have data entered wrong, but then at least it is clearly an own fault.

It is certainly not a hunt for DTV holders, but DTV holders are one of victims of the policy, and as such it is also DTV related.

What I still don't understand why people want a Thai account so badly.

Where I cannot pay with cards, I can use Wise or Revolut or just pay with cash.

Another thing is a lot of people here are complaining when they have to keep money in a Thai account for a non-o visa, and when having DTV they complain not having the possibility to open a bank account at the same banks they don't want to put money into.

@Paula *******

When they have to work for free for spplicants not checking their own details, fees would go up for all applicants. When you submit an application it is not possible to change it anymore. Why should that be unfair?

of course, the 500K is requirement for all DTV types.

The trading might only count as remote job if conditions are met.

When you do this as a remote job for a company or clients it should be possible.

Anonieme deelnemer 581 it might be what you meant to say, bu your reaction on my post that there is no relation with the lost bankbook and the trip to AIS, gave me the impression that you saw there was a relation.

@Christopher **********

you loose the visa fee because of not fully checking your application. Most embassies warn for this. The system does not have a known error, it just could be designed better.

Yes you have to do it.

First time of each stay in the country needs to be in person.

When you fly out before 90 days after first report, no second reporting needed.

When you did first report before day 90, then you need second reporting.

You need passport, copy of personal details passport, copy of visa stamp, copy of visa and TM30.

Some offices might not need everything.
