What should I do after my Thai visa application was rejected due to a passport number error?

Paul ********

Anonymous participant 590 Yeah, I switched to a DTV back in July last year. It was scanning incorrectly back then but luckily I caught it. The fact that they haven't fixed this in a year says a lot. They should either fix it or remove that option. I wonder why they haven't? 😉

Will Bangkok Bank reject my request for a new card with a DTV?

Paul ********

No. My bank card expired and they replaced it no problem even though I'm on a DTV. They looked at my passport as well so they definitely knew.

Anonymous participant "I'm transferring 50k Can to bank today.". How come so much? 500K THB is only around $21K CAD. I just provided by last Canadian bank statement when I successfully applied last summer. No money transfers required.

Is it a good idea to switch from a Retirement Visa to a DTV in Thailand?

Paul ********

I didn't need to transfer any money to Thailand when I got my DTV (Workcation) from Vancouver. I was able to just show I had funds in a Canadian bank account. Also no long visits to immigration just the quick and easy, 90 day reports. This works for us as we are in and out of Thailand enough to not require extensions.

@Peter **********

They have stopped allowing the affidavit of income letter for many countries, that meant you didn't have to move 800K to Thailand to get a non-o retirement visa. That was significant and less than 12 years ago. I believe that change was a few years ago for UK, USA and Oz and this year for Canadians.
