    Thailand just keep making these BS types of visas! They're too complicated for their own good!

    Is it not a bit of a catch 22 if the 500k needs to be lodged into a Thai bank? will they open the bank account for you as part of the process? I thought you needed to already have a visa in order to open a Thai bank account in the first place?

    Ben, I agree with your interpretation of the DTV, ie you get 180 days then you can apply within the next 4.5 years. It would be interesting to see Thai immigrations stance on using both 180 day tranches back to back, then applying for a new DTV visa. I suspect I know the answer. 😆

    ...or,
    500k baht deposit in a Thai bank...
    ...or,
    Proof of 500k baht in your home bank...
    ...or,
    Evidence of 500k baht income per year.
    I've heard ALL these things...

  • @DL-cy3ik
    @DL-cy3ik Месяц назад +1

    The question is can you stay 180 days, extend immediately and then apply for a new visa after the extension expires, this seems to be the main point of discussion (hope) online on Reddit etc

  • @christophmosimann9244
    @christophmosimann9244 Месяц назад

    So basically a 1 year visa. However, why would they make the sticker validity 5 years? That makes no sense... We need to wait and see. It could also be that it is just an unlimited entry 5 year visa with 6 months stay for each entry, which would be the nuts...

    How about instead of proving financial stability they prove mental stability? Even a broke backpacker that isn't causing any issues is better than a rich troublemaker, not to mention how rich people buy up property and inflate prices making it harder for the poorest natives. Governments needs to stop chasing quick money and try to address the thing that matters like low birth rates, low investments, etc., and leave the natural flow of tourists alone.

    this visa is for "remote" workers, that work is either not considered working in Thailand or untraceable income, At least this way they get something out of all those people earning overseas while living in Thailand.

    What i wonder is that i am 43 years old, with a passive income of 3000 USD a month, and i wonder if i can use the Destination Thailand Visa as a makeshift retirement visa, or a visa to bridge the gap until i am 50 years old?

      but of course we don't have all the info yet so don't quote me... but from my experience and understanding of their system, sounds like that probably won't be an issue, if you are to apply for your retirement visa after your other visa (any visa, be it tourist, education, business, etc etc) expires.
