Can I edit the place of issue on my visa application at the embassy?

What are the differences between the "Workcation" and "Soft Power" versions of the Digital Nomad Visa (DTV) in Thailand?

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

You're so wrong. Not everyone is "getting Soft Power version" (I got Workcation, and so did many people here). Workcation was actually super easy for me because you know what: I ACTUALLY WORK REMOTELY and can prove it and will be able to prove it for the next 5 years! Good luck with that if you went with a "Soft Power version".

How can I open a bank account on a DTV in Thailand, and where can I find an agent to help?

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

Hey can you give more specific location for that Bangkok Bank branch? Like street or BTS or MRT station. I don't know where or what "indigo" is.

What are the requirements for extending a visa in Thailand according to Immigration Division 1?

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

what do you mean "Border run costs are starting to be apparent too"? That still looks like the easier no-brainer solution to me. To each their own though. If you like paperwork and bureaucracy more power to you. I don't.

Can I enter Thailand on a tourist visa if my DTV application is still pending in Vietnam?

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

You can leave Vietnam if you've already submitted your application. Plenty of people have already done what you're asking. It's UNREASONABLE for you to be expected to remain in Vietnam when you don't know how long your application will take to process. Just leave, and then reenter Thailand when the DTV is approved.

Will changing my flight affect my Thai visa status after approval?

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

No worries, I entered Thailand 3 weeks after the date I had stated in the application. Makes zero difference once the visa is issued.
