Help please. I've applied for a Non-O visa while in Australia with the plan to convert to a retirement visa with the banked money method. Does my wife apply for the same type visa then apply as a dependent to me in the Thai retirement visa application process? Many thanks in advance for clarification.

Hi, is it possible to apply for the DTV while staying in Bali now that everything has gone online? Does anyone have any experience with this? Thanks :)

Hello everyone,

I am planning to apply for a DTV visa for Thailand in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam. Here is the list of documents I have prepared in advance:

✅ A recent passport photo (without a smile).

✅ A clear passport scan.

✅ Bank statment in English for the last six months.

✅ Approval for managing an account in Englis.

✅ A business license or notarized translation of the license, along with your business and personal details.

✅ A signature confirmation for managing the business (notarized).

✅ A copy of the main page of my site, with my website address included.

✅ Four financial invoices translated into English.

✅ A confirmed flight ticket.

**✅ hotel booking in vietnam

My Questions:

1. Should I submit everything online while I am in Vietnam, or do I need to visit the Thai Embassy in person?

2. Should I stay in Ho Chi Minh City and wait for the visa, or am I allowed to travel to other cities while it is being processed?

3. Will I receive the visa by email, or do I need to collect it physically?

4. Am I missing any documents, or is my preparation complete?

Thank you in advance for your help!
