Anonymous participant haha! Well I’m in Chiang Mai so i’m a part of Chiang Mai Nomad Girls and then a Chiang Mai moms group!

I’ve seen some for Bangkok too!

Agreed. I’m not sure what it is about the expat groups that have to do with Thailand specifically but whether it’s this page or the expat specific pages, the amount of snarky people highly outweighs the helpful ones. And it’s not like that on other countries visa pages lol

I do my best to stick to the nomad girls groups when I need information (if possible) because they’re a lot more supportive and helpful than other groups.

We brought our two dogs over from the US. We had a bit of a nightmare experience with Qatar Airways and wound up having to hire someone to bring them over. We used Pawsitive Pet Transport Flight Nanny Services and she was AMAZING.

Here is a screenshot of what I posted on my post on this page when I got the same request. Once I provided a letter similar to this, I was approved.

I also had this issue when I applied so I went down to my bank and got a Letter of Good Standing and took screenshots of the transaction history for whatever was missing from the most recent statement, and sent it over. Did the trick.

When I applied via DC, it required a plane ticket. I just found a flight, placed a hold on it, got sent the booking reference number, and then put that in the application. A lot of people did it that way.

Banks statement, DC only required one month statement. Not sure if LA is different.

And I can’t confidently say about the 3 month period but I think there is a 90-day rule where you have to enter within 90 days of getting your visa.

I’ve heard mixed answers on this TM30 stuff. Do you HAVE to have one no matter what? I thought you only needed to get one if you need to get something. Like a drivers license or buy a car. Not every time you come back into the country?

We use Google Fi as well. My brother and sister in law who live in Europe also use Google-Fi.

Ours is $35/month + $10 per Gb of data. But we picked the cheapest option as Thai data is extremely cheap so we don’t use Google Fi unless we travel out of Thailand.

Hey! You have to get approved first before any dependents can be approved. Their application requires you to submit your own valid visa in order for them to be approved :)

I think it dependents where you’re applying from. We applied at Washington DC, USA and they told me each dependent doesn’t need their own 500,000bt
