My passport is running out of empty pages and I've ordered a new one. What's the process for updating to the new passport on the dtv? I saw a post you can transfer the visa over but it's a digital not physical visa sticker.

Hi!

So I’m British and I came to Thailand on a 60 day visa free entry about 20 days ago.

I heard it’s okay but I want to double check if I can change it to a Non immigrant ED visa.

I also want to double check if I’m allowed to change my visa type whilst I’m in the country?

(From what I’ve seen, yes)

I start my internship on Monday and the only reason why I didn’t apply earlier is because one particular document was taking FOREVER to arrive.

I really wanted to come to Thailand a bit earlier than my internship to make sure that I can get things in order as it’s my first time coming here and I have little idea of how things work around here 💔

Looks like they're tweaking the LTR requirements a bit.

Remote worker: company needs to show 50 million in income over 3 years instead of 150 million.

Wealthy global citizen: no more monthly income requirement

Remove the cap on dependant LTR visas from 4 to unlimited.

They are also gutting the Smart visa program and completely getting rid of it except for the Startup category.

HCMC Vietnam question.

( apologies in advance if the answers to my questions are obvious. I don't see a consolidated answer on here , so was hoping for a response from someone with firsit hand experience )

I live in Thailand but work all over Asia so quite hard to tie down exact dates, but of course will make it work.

I read that people are are applying online for the HCMC and waiting 2 weeks for an appointment.

1. Is the 2 weeks a minimum ? Set in stone ?

2. Can you select a range of dates for your appointment?

3. Can I only apply once inside Vietnamto lock in the appointment. I'm aware that proof of arrival are required. I'm just not sure that is needed at the start.

I will be providing the following. My Thai address will be our family villa in wife's name.

1. Passport copies

2. Passport photos x 2

3. Latest wage slip. More available upon request.

4. 6 months bank statement. Latest balance of bank balance. More available upon request.

5. Letter from company, confirming my salary, length of employment and remote work ability.

6. Singapore Tax return. Showing taxes paid in full.

7. Proof of address in Thailand on bank statement.

If I arrive in Thailand on DTV & stay 60 days then come back a week later and stay another 60 days do I have to do a 90 day report ? Or is it for 90 days continuously ?

How is the DTV process going to change once it switches to e-visa? It sounds like it would be easier but with a closer look it seems like you have to apply from your home country. Anyone have any information about the e-visa? For example, I called Jakarta embassy and they said they will not accept in person appointments starting in October.

As a remote employee of a Canadian sales company, I am interested in relocating to Thailand while maintaining my current job. Would this qualify me for the DTV visa?
