Hi guys, I'm currently in Thailand and would like to go overseas to apply for the DTV visa via the soft power route (Muay Thai boxing). I’d like to know which Thai embassy is easiest to grant this visa to Chinese nationals. If you have some good info or relevant experiences, please comment. Thanks a lot for your help in advance!

hello everyone may i ask here how many days a chinese people can stay in thailand having a DTV

report from suvannakhet thai embassy.

This story happened this morning to my Chinese friend.

She applied for thai tourist visa in September2022 in suvannakhet and stayed till few days ago in Thailand then went to suvannakhet again. She tried to apply for another tourist visa there but the staff in embassy told her that she can only apply for one tourist visa per year so she failed.

This is my first time to hear about this rule so would like to share here in case anyone may find it helpful.😊🙏

Hi, I have a question concerning the possibility of overstay during the process of visa conversion in Thailand.

I am a Chinese citizen with a UK residency. I am currently in Thailand on a tourist visa and would like to start a language course of Thai and transfer my visa to the ED visa.

The language school I want to attend told me that now for Chinese nationals, before beginning the already complicated visa conversion procedures, I need another two weeks to obtain criminal records from the Thai police. Even if I am to have a 30-day extension of the tourist visa, the additional two weeks makes it questionable whether I can go through all the process and get the ED visa stamp before my current visa (plus the 30-day extension) expires.

The visa agent of the language school said that there is a 70% possiblity that they can help me get the ED stamp in due course. Well that sounds inspiring but I really want to know what happens when the other 30% occurs. Will I waste all my money and have my ED visa rejected and required to leave before the current visa expires? Or will they give the ED stamp anyway but regard the gap between the expiration day of my current visa and the ED visa issuing day as my overstay and have me penalized? How harsh is the punishment for this kind of overstay? I am fine with 500 baht payment per day but I am worried about the negative records. e.g. Will this be shown on the passport? Will it affect my future visa applications?

I have also read that Covid extension will be continued to July. Will this help me with my situation in any way?

Any advice will be appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Hi, asking for a friend... Can a Chinese person currently on a visa on arrival cross the border in Mae Sai to get a new visa on arrival?

Does anyone know if the 15 day visa on arrival for Chinese nationals is extendable in Thailand?

Hello, is there a member of this group who is of Chinese nationality and who has had recent dealings with the Thai consulate in Vientiane in order to obtain a single entry tourist visa? Could you tell me what was your experience? Thank you
