Can I apply for a DTV visa if I don't have €15k in my account for the last 3 months?

Winston ************

It's not "immigration" you have to worry about. It's the embassy. I suggest you wait until you meet their stated requirements.

Can I sponsor my unmarried partner with a DTV visa in Thailand?

Winston ************

Sponsorship applies only to legal dependants like children or spouse (married couple). A boyfriend/girlfriend relationship will not be recognized as it has NO legal basis.

Can I enter Thailand with a valid tourist visa while waiting for my DTV application to process?

Winston ************

Some applicants with a valid METV have been told to wait until it expires before processing of the DTV can begin. It makes sense. Why don't you use up that METV first? DTV isn't going away.

Should I renew my passport before applying for a Thai DTV visa?

Winston ************

Question to the people saying "renew now": does your country allow you to renew when there's more than 1 year of validity left? Mine doesn't, unless all pages are already full.

Do I need a physical bank statement or is a digital statement acceptable for my Thailand visa application from Pakistan?

Winston ************

The digital statement should be OK, since you have to upload it online. However, if you can get a physical statement, do so, since many Pakistanis have been called in for interviews. In summary, get both.
