ok I wasn't sure - i keep a photo copy of my passport and current visa on my phone i keeo my actual passport in my condo hidden i only need it for immigration and bank matters if I pull large amounts of money
you still need your physical passport to travel - if you do not have proof of it on you and you are stopped and asked for it you can be detained until they sort it out
you cant use investor alone as digital nomad - the ones who do have an LLC set up they use to operate their own "buinsess" with where the LLC does the trading and show profits and pay outs
ok you posted all that for what - ive done this process myself many others have done this process - you can apply for then enter on another visa there is nothing stopping you from doing that - not one thing - If you other visa is approved while here GREAT make sure you leave thailalnd and come back intime to use the orher visa that was granted
oh really may want to check cause ed-visa works that way even do in-country conversions its a non-o visa - you can do out of country application and enter the country in process
Yes - you can enter thailand under visa exempt while processing non-o visa but you can simply extend visa exempt with 1900 baht at immigration and get 30 more days - but yes you can do that once your visa is granted leafe and come back under new visa
Michael Spigarolo well thats funny cause I been to 5 different banks and all 5 of them denied me on my ed visa citing the same regulations and requirements...
