What recent changes are happening regarding the ED visa in Thailand?

@Frank *********
 but the DTV was created for that: for medical treatment, for courses, etc. It's not the same as using a student visa to work. Of course, if anyone is using the DTV to work, it should be also revoked, but the examples you mention about dental treatments and cooking courses are indeed within the scope of what the DTV is for.

What are the income requirements for the Digital Nomad Visa (DTV) in Thailand?
Elías ********
Remember the DTV is good for 5 years. If what you intend is to do a short course of muay thai or Thai cuisine for a couple of months, you can get the regular tourist visa, which allows you to stay for up to 90 (60+30) days and has way less stringent requirements.

Sounds good to me. No country wants people without money to come and live here. Your income doesn't need to be from a job, tho. Own business, renting properties you own, etc., everything counts.

Can I enter Thailand on a tourist visa while waiting for my DTV visa approval?
Elías ********
Somebody doesn't know to read the rules. Don't get me wrong, it doesn't make me happy that this happened to you, but the rules are in writing, so you can't claim not knowing them.

What are the workarounds if my Thai bank accounts are closed?
Elías ********
Where are you from? Most Asian banks have agreements to allow their customers to use their apps to pay in Thailand. You can use QR scan if you have a Korean, Japanese, Singaporean, etc. bank account.
