Hello, I am a self-employed trader on the financial markets. Is there a way for a DTV visa application to be accepted ? I have comfortable funds but no business

New to the group. I am currently a US based Flight Attendant. Are there any flight attendants who have been successful in securing the visa? Also, would you guys recommend using an agency or just doing it myself? Thank you for any help in advance. Really looking to make this move this year 2nd quarter.

If you do the softpower way lets say with muay thai, will they ask you for new course purchase once you fly back to thailand to get new stamp once your first 6 months are expired? How about the extension way at immigration?

I am planning to stay 6 months per year in thailand and fly back 6 months later

Ok so I am looking to get a residency certificate to buy a bike and the immigration center I went to asked me for the usual stuff (tm30, passport, photo) but also for all my dtv docs, meaning bank statements and Muay Thai course. Problem is I am in an island in the south and my Muay Thai course is in the North. What to do?

Do has any one figured out the actual difference between the Workcation and Softpower versions AFTER getting the visa? Usually people here are showing a Muay Thai course for 6 months but what about after a year? Are they going to want you to continue Muay Thai or something for 5 years? Will they want business owners to prove they still run that business or are still employed?

Hello everyone, I am looking for educational institutions that issue a DTV visa. Priority for Koh Phangan or Koh Samui

Thanks 😊

Hi everyone! what is the document required for DTV visa if I want to apply for Muay Thai course? Confirmation letter and receive are enough or not?

Just got my Visa approved in HCM Vietnam.

Prior before travelling there I sent an e-mail to the Thai Embassy in HCM to ask specifically which documents I have to prepare as I saw in this group that every Embassy has a bit different requirments.

They sent me the official Thai e-visa page with the requirments and a Message that it will take 5 days.

I prepared everything correct as stated on the Website. After travelling to HCM I applied for the Visa. 3 days later I got the request for further documents.

-Transactions and Financial Proof of the last 6 months with not less than 500k baht

-More information about the Muay Thai Course

I uploaded the documents and got the approval friday at midnight.

I would recommend to do it through an agency.

For soft activities do you just need the 500,000 in bank? How long must you enroll in a class for? And when renewing do you not need to be in a class?

Hi everyone.

I just had my DTV approved in 24 hours from application in the Hong Kong Thai Embassy. I went the soft power route (Muay Thai Class)

I provided:

- Passport

- Recent Picture

- Proof of being in Hong Kong (Landing Visitor Visa Picture)

- Proof of funds (Over 500,000 THB in a single account, 3 months of statements)

- Invitation letter from the Muay Thai School - Muay Thai Fever, 6 months course for 20,000 Baht with proof of payment. Special thanks to Derry at Muay Thai Fever for being extremely responsive via emails.

I applied Tuesday at 3:00PM through the Thai E-Visa portal.

I received my DTV today at 3:30PM by mail with no further questions.

I would like to thank this group for all the help. I'm happy to answer any questions.
