What is the process and requirements for obtaining a DTV (workcation) visa from the US Consulate for Thailand?

Paul *********

What i find crazy is this is a tourist visa basically so I'm told , yet its for working digital nomads and I'm sure they know your going to work remotely while there especially those ones who stay there repeatedly , yet its not a work visa its a very grey area which i think might change as it goes.

What are the bank account balance requirements for Thai visa applications in Vientiane and Hanoi?

Paul *********

When it switches to E-visa does anyone know what the place you apply from rules will be. At this stage clearly you need to be in Hanoi for a visa done in hanoi, but with Evisa does it then mean you can apply online and fly there once you know your appointment time to pick it up is

How easy is it to open a bank account in Thailand with a Destination Thailand Visa?

Paul *********

@Tod ********

I find it strange as it’s advertised for remote working and the 180 days implies they want you to pay tax hence you would require a bank account for payments to go into for any possible income for tax liability or am I reading it wrong

What are some reliable options for obtaining a DTV visa in Thailand without proof of consistent income?

Paul *********

I can see Muay Thai and cooking schools prices increasing now it appears strange that the govt is allowing 5 yr visas for one of treatments or 6 month gym options. Nonthaburi immigration told me last week that the DTV could be changed with the new govt
