One of the questions on the application is whether a person has previously applied for a visa in Thailand.  if the previous application was under a different first name, with a different gender marker on the passport, what should the answer be? 

Hey guys, I'm trying to apply for the workation visa and got stuck on this page.

What did you all enter on the travel information page?

1) From what I've seen people saying, there is no proof for flight tickets necessary. So I just look up flights and provide airline and flight number? What did you insert at "date of departure" if you intend to extend for another 180d within the country.

2) "Have you ever applied for Thai visa"

Does this include previous tourists visas or only long term visas?

3) Hotel accommodation

Do I need to book a hotel and provide the booking confirmation? The field even asks for a phone number so I'm not entirely sure if I should just input the hotels phone number here.

I couldn't find anything specific in the search so I'm asking these questions in case others may also have issues here.

Thanks in advance.

I have been in Thailand for nearly 10 months in 2024. First on a 60 day evisa (before 60 day stamp came out) and maxed my border bounces/ extensions. Currently I am in Vietnam. Will my stay history impact getting DTV for soft power activities?

I want to go back to Thailand in the new year while I wait for my bank balance to qualify over ~3 months (for Phnom Pen )but not sure if this will be a good look given my history.

Appreciate any insights, thank you in advance!! 🙏

Hi everyone

So I'm staying in Thailand since 2019 on ED visas😆, never left the country... Is there any chance to get DTV visa with such history? Anyone been in similar situation?

Hi!

I'm applying for DTV in Hanoi, they requested all Thai visa I have received until present. Before I had two tourist visas - one single entry (I stayed around 3 months), one multiple entry (I stayed around 7/8 months). Has anyone's application been rejected because of staying that long?

I will be going to Thailand within the month. Will stay for better part of what's left of this year. Is there a benefit on going over on the 60 day tourist visa or should I just use the two 60 + 30 available (fly in and border run). If I go next year will the tourist visa look better than 2 on arrivals?

Could anyone advise me? I have 1 land border run I can use this year. I have been here since November. I came on a tourist visa and have extended that to get 90 days. Plus, I used an agency to go to Cambodia and back by land to get 30 days, which I have extended again. My question is: I plan to go to the Philippines once this finishes on March 23rd for 1 month, and I plan to come back again via a land border around April 23rd. I know Don Mueang airport won’t be the best option. What country and border is best to come back through into Thailand. I plan to get a 6-month education visa once I arrive. Any advice will be greatly appreciated.

I've been back in the UK for around 1.5 months and looking to head back out to Thailand ASAP but I'm extremely worried about getting let in this time with my visa history and sent back to the UK.

I came out in Dec 2021 and stayed until Dec 2023 with trips to Vietnam, UK, France, Germany etc in between visas for times never longer than one month. I have stayed with Coronavirus extensions, Ed Visa, Tourist visas and my last 2 were exemptions (they pulled me aside for the last one, didn't say much as I had a ticket to the UK in 2 weeks time but unsure if they typed details into the system against my name).

I am aware I'll take some judgemental comments on this but it is worth it for a grain of advice or peoples experiences. My girlfriend is there and it's quite hard having to let go if there's no path to get back (without getting married).

I have been looking into visa agents to guide me through the airport but haven't found anything totally reliable yet.

Thanks

A history question if I may. How long has the 800,000 requirement for retirement visas been in effect. Has it always been that figure ? Or lower beforehand ?

What a substantial benefit for Thai banks to have that in their coffers and use in the international markets to shore up the Bhat. And how many retirees pass on, or leave LOS, and those funds are never withdrawn ?

Hi everyone,

I spent 8 months in Thailand this year on visa exemptions + extensions. I plan on going back in March 2024 on another visa exemption, which will be around 4ish months since I last left Thailand.

Based on everyone's experience, will l encounter any hassles upon entry to BKK Airport? Should I just apply for a Tourist Visa (even though that is not a fool proof plan either)? I have an Australian passport for context.

Thank you!
