Yes. Tons. I also got one. Just search the group for hcmc

I don't think they accept investments. You need the liquid cash in your bank account - if it's in there, then that's all they need but if it's also in investment accounts combined with your bank account to equal 500k baht, then that is probably the problem.

I call out humor and bs when I see it. And you have just added more of it to my day. I’ve been in the group longer than you have helping people and sharing my experiences. You seem to have this holier than thou attitude and you eeed to get rid of it. It’s not pretty.

@Benjamin ********

oh ok then. Thanks for the sarcastic education. I’ll try to stop but no guarantees. Maybe you can follow your own advice ? 🤣

@Benjamin ********

you’re too sensitive to be here. No one is online bullying 🤣 we’re calling out the humour in someone’s dad asking questions on behalf of his adult son. Lighten up.

@Benjamin ********

which is exactly what you’re doing in your comment.

"Hi Dad, I dont know how to apply for the DTV cause I don't know how to be self-directed and do my own research. Can you find out for me and take care of it? Thanks"

@Werner ***********

its one of the categories. My comment was about intent and purpose not about who is likely on what visa for what reason. Many are on the DTV for soft power activities so if that's your intent for being here, then its the right visa. Visas are issued based on intent and purpose. Of course, people can be dishonest but rather than looking at which one is easiest, the best route is to be here on a visa that reflects why you are here.

It depends on your purpose and intent for being in Thailand. You should be on a visa that reflects your intent and reason for being here not which one is “easier”. If you’re retiring here the. The retirement visa is for you. If you are working remotely than the dtv is for you.

Thanks, and you went to Chaeng Watthana in Lak Si, right? I'm dreading this....hopefully the online will work after my 1st one.
