Anonymous participant I think my landlord or internet provider would let me know if they bank charge for my payment. And for electricity I pay through lazada with my international card and for water normally you can pay in apartment juristic office.
Pay rent and utilities easily can be done with Wise. So besides QR payment there is very little benefit considering how much people pay agents to open account 😂
There is no Thai embassy in Tanzania. You need to apply through e-visa website and your application will be sent to Thai embassy in Kenya. Before e-visa I know in Kenya they won’t accept non EA nationals if they don’t have resident permit. Now you better send them email and ask, before make 350$ payment. Because if application canceled there is no refund. I know all this because I thought to apply from Zanzibar as well some time ago.
so if family of 3 should have 45k $ balance on the account to get DTV. How it can be expensive to fly out and back and spend just couple of hundreds dollars?
I don’t think there should be any problems, but you can send an email to the embassy where you’re applying, and they can confirm for you. The only thing you might need is to show enough money in the account of the main DTV holder for 2 people. You can ask about this in the email too. I know in Manila, if you have dependents, you need around $14-15k for each. But different embassies might have different requirements
If you are in Estonia, you can apply in Helsinki. The only thing they accept only Finnish or Estonian bank statements, so if you have Italian bank statements they will deny your application. You can read more about requirements on their website
