Thailand visa answer bank — LTR, DTV and staying on in Thailand
Answers to the Thailand visa questions applicants actually ask: the BOI-administered LTR visa, the DTV for remote workers and Thai Soft Power activities, filing through Thai e-Visa, and extending stay on form TM.7 — plus which supporting documents must be translated and certified. Based on MFA, Immigration Bureau and BOI announcements. (27+ search topics covered)
To what level must foreign supporting documents be authenticated for a Thai visa?
Documents issued abroad — employment letters, financial confirmations, police certificates, marriage records — are normally authenticated under the issuing country's system and by the Royal Thai Embassy there, or by apostille once the Convention enters into force for Thailand on 28 February 2027 where the receiving office accepts it. When filed inside Thailand, a certified Thai or English translation is usually attached. Requirements differ between individual Thai embassies and consulates, so check the specific mission's published list before preparing the file.
How far in advance should documents be dated?
Several Thai and foreign authorities treat civil registration extracts, police clearance and bank evidence as valid only for a limited recent period, and the period is set by the receiving authority rather than by any agency. Ordering fresh extracts too early is a common cause of rework, because the document can expire while the certification chain is still running. Sequence the chain backwards from the appointment date.
Does the Immigration Bureau accept documents in English without translation?
Practice varies by office and by application type. Some documents are accepted in English, while family status and civil registration documents are typically required in Thai for onward use at district offices and for consular certification. Because the requirement is set locally, confirm with the specific office handling your case and prepare the Thai version when the answer is unclear.
Which foreign documents usually need Thai translation for a Thai visa or extension?
Marriage and birth certificates, divorce decrees, police clearance, medical certificates, pension or income statements and academic records are the usual candidates, depending on the visa category. Thai authorities generally expect the foreign document to be legalised in the country of origin, translated into Thai and, where the receiving office requires it, the translation certified by the Department of Consular Affairs. Ask the receiving office for its current list before ordering translations.
What is the difference between TM30 and 90-day reporting?
TM30 is the accommodation owner's or manager's duty to notify the authorities of a foreigner staying at the address within the statutory deadline. The 90-day report is the foreigner's own duty after 90 continuous days in the country. Both are separate and both must be done.
How does a visa differ from permission to stay?
A visa authorises you to travel and seek entry; the length of stay is the permission stamped by the immigration officer at the border. A one-year visa may still grant only 90 days per entry, requiring extension or a new entry. Confusing the two is a common cause of accidental overstay.
Do you guarantee the visa?
No. The decision belongs to the embassy, consulate, BOI or immigration officer under the law. We are responsible for complete, accurate documents and translations prepared to the criteria published at the time of filing.
What are the fees?
Government fees follow published schedules and change periodically. Our service charge depends on document volume, languages and urgency, so it is quoted per case. Contact our staff by phone, LINE or email for a quotation matching your situation.

Practical Q&A
Practical questions · Near me / DIY / Required documents
Where do I lodge a visa application — must I go to the embassy?
Many countries outsource intake to visa application centres (VFS Global, TLScontact, BLS) with offices in Bangkok and some provinces; others accept lodgement at the embassy or fully online. Channels change by embassy announcement, so confirm the current route before booking. We can pre-check your document set and arrange appointments from any of our three offices.
Can I apply myself, or do I need an agency?
You can always apply yourself; no country requires an agent, and no agent can guarantee approval because the decision is at the consular officer's discretion. The value of assistance is assembling the file exactly to the official checklist, correct translation and certification format, and a focused cover letter.
What are the baseline documents?
Typically a passport with the validity and blank pages the destination requires, the completed application form, photos to the destination's specification, financial evidence for the stated period, proof of employment or study, travel and accommodation plans, and health insurance where required. Always follow that embassy's official checklist, as requirements differ by country.
Practical advice & cautions
Visa and immigration matters: advice and cautions
Before you start
Check passport validity and blank pages
Many countries set a minimum remaining validity and number of blank pages. Verify before your appointment.
Plan around expiry dates
Extensions, reporting and re-entry permits should be handled well ahead of the deadline; queues and public holidays can make last-minute filing impossible.
Read the official conditions first
Visa conditions change. Check the deciding authority's latest announcement, then use our service to prepare documents and translations that match those conditions.
Order documents to the authority's checklist
Assembling the bundle in the required order with an index speeds up assessment and reduces requests for more documents.
Common reasons documents get rejected
Expired supporting documents
Civil registry extracts, medical certificates and police clearances have limited validity; old copies make the bundle incomplete.
Form data contradicting the attachments
Dates, addresses or travel history that conflict with supporting documents are a frequent refusal ground and may be read as misrepresentation.
Refiling immediately without fixing the cause
Analyse the refusal grounds and address them; resubmitting the same file usually produces the same result.
Ignoring post-approval obligations
Periodic reporting, address notification and work conditions are ongoing duties that affect the next extension.
Requirements differ by authority and destination country and can change. Confirm current conditions with the receiving authority, or ask our team by phone, LINE or email.
