Pib Posted November 28, 2022 Share Posted November 28, 2022 (edited) 28 minutes ago, oldcpu said: On this topic, I received an email today from Bangkok Bank, advising me of a regular new issue of Thai Government bonds coming up. Having typed that, I don't know if one applied to buy the necessary amount in Thai government bonds (via Bangkok Bank) if one would actually obtain the amount they requested. Yea, I got the same but it was all in Thai (snapshot below) and there was no weblink to view it on a browser or link to a Bangkok Bank webpage....and from searching around on the Bangkok Bank website I couldn't find any info. However, from googling the bond numbers I did find some weblinks at Krungthai Bank and Bank of Thailand talking the 2 day bond sale in mid December. Select English on the Krungthai Bank website to see the buying requirements....it does say for those holding Thai nationality "or" have a residence in Thailand. Since it says "...or have a residence in Thailand..." I expect that would mean those folks registered with their Thai bank as having some type of "long term visa" like a Non O/OA visa good for a year. If so, for those folks outside of Thailand with no Thai bank acct then trying to buy the bonds to qualify for a LTR would be like peeing into the wind. https://krungthai.com/th/krungthai-update/promotion-detail/1294 https://www.bot.or.th/Thai/DebtSecurities/SalestoIndividuals/Documents/Factsheet-HAPPY_SAVER.pdf Snapshot of Bangkok Bank email.

At the date of application submission, it must have at least 10 months remaining on the policy. Or if buying once approved (selected submit later on the application as in my case) I started mine ASAP when the insurance company would let me. About +2 days from the time it went to the underwriters. I then sent the paperwork across to BOI. At that time it was past the start date of the policy.

With acceptance of your insurance does this mean you have now received approval from BoI for a LTR visa? Or does it mean they accepted your insurance which "should" satisfy all requirements in your view but you are still awaiting notice of BoI final approval?

Hi, I think not just your account - I'm seeing changes as well. My best guess is they are doing system upgrades. Not sure what they're up to, but for one the digital work permit application page is appearing differently. It looks like a work-in-progress.

Do we know how many applications have actually been rejected (versus not yet granted, requesting more detail etc)? Whatever the actual rejection rate, though, I see things a bit differently. I've seen no sign at all of the BoI being picky or rigid. Trying to stick to the legal requirements is more likely, in my opinion. I would applaud them for that. If the legal standards are too rigid, then the lawmakers need to adjust them. But that isn't the BoI's call. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Pib Posted November 30, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted November 30, 2022 Update: Known LTR Approvals as of 30 Nov 2022 based on posts in this thread I saw. Added "smic" who received his LTR Work from Thailand Professional approval on 28 Nov....he initially applied 20 Sep....which equates to around a total time for approval of approximately 2 months and 1 week. Congrats to smic!!! Glad to see another approved application with smic's approval on 28 Nov. The previous approval was JJJJJJJJ's approval on 8 Nov....he applied 1 Sep....which equates to a approval time of around 2 month and 1 week. I may have missed some approvals...please speak-up if you have been approved. Since early Oct the rate of known approvals based on posts in this thread (and other forums like reddit and Facebook I've looked at) has really slowed down....slowed down bigtime for whatever reasons. Maybe fewer applicants, maybe the BoI slowing down in how fast they process applications (personally I think this is a major reason), maybe applicants simply not meeting requirements but submitted an application just to see what happens, maybe people just not posting about their LTR application experience, maybe ________________(you fill-in the blank). And for those who may have been rejected, being asked for more documents which you find very hard to impossible to provide, etc., your crossfeed on why you think your application isn't meeting requirements would be greatly appreciated as that provides excellent insight on the BoI review process, how flexible (or inflexible) they are with requirements/docs, etc. Poster & Date Approval Notice Rec'd 1.

aublumberg Posted November 30, 2022 Share Posted November 30, 2022 Tend to agree with @Misty, I think the staff at BOI are actually applying the requirements checks based on what is documented, I don't think they are necessarily 'picky' but simply following the evidence presented by applicants. Of course there is a learning curve given the program is quite new but it should hopefully now enter a steady state. Since there is no application fee charged, I do think the threshold to apply is very low and a certain segment of applicants "just give it a go and see". This is also evident from a number of online forums. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pib Posted November 30, 2022 Share Posted November 30, 2022 Third day in a row now that the LTR online acct website has been VERY slow during BoI business hours. At 10:50am Thailand time it takes approx 1 to 2 minutes before a logon will complete to the point of seeing the status of your application. And when clicking "View" to see your application you can not....it just times out....basically makes it unusable to view or upload docs. This has been my logon experience since 28 Nov/Monday when checking the status of my application during BoI business hours. But before 28 Nov and/or outside of BoI business hours the online acct website is fast. I have an AIS Fibre internet plan to gives me speeds of 700Mb speed to Thailand websites....surfing to other Thailand and foreign websites is fast....just the BoI online acct is slower than a sleeping turtle. Using my DTAC mobile connection to logon results in the same VERY slow experience. Just FYI in case others are experiencing this "during BoI business hours" issue. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Update: I called BoI about the LTR online acct website be VERY slow. They are aware of the problem and hope to have the problem fixed this afternoon. I then asked about the status of my application which was submitted 25 Oct...around 23 business days ago. Took the rep approx 2 minutes to look up the status because the rep said their system is very slow right now. I've been told that in by earlier calls over the last few weeks. The rep said it's "processing." I told him my online status shows "Pending" and not Processing. I then asked what was meant by "processing" and the rep said it means my application has been initially looked at but not at detail level. I asked how much longer does he estimate before I get some kind of feedback via my online acct such as in a notification/email asking for more docs, approval, rejection, status change, etc. He said approx 10 to 15 "working" days. He said they have a lot of applications to review. So, at this point in time it appears a typical application may take approx 40 "BoI working days" vs 20 working days to reach a point where a person will know whether their application is acceptable, needs more docs, etc. 1 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is also evident from a number of online forums. This “gambling” approach to the LTR application is primarily among the digital nomad group which apply as Working-from-Thailand professionals. This is also why the rejection rate for Working-from-Thailand professionals is 86% versus the overall rejection rate of “only” approximately 75%. However according to the statistics published at the end of October Working-from-Thailand professionals only account for about a third of all applications, so the other two thirds – with Wealthy Pensioners being the biggest sub-group thereof and largest of all application categories - still need to have an average rejection rate of approximately 70% so that the overall rejection average comes out at 75%. Now we of course do not know the details, but the fact that thus about 70% of Wealthy Pensioner applications appear to get rejected seems extremely high as I would not expect to be so many “gamblers” in this group. Also, while the application does not cost any money, most people – and especially among this group – will be reluctant to disclose their financial details in the application process unless they really believe they will get approved. So the very high rejection rate even in this group would rather appear to be an indicator of the possibility of excessive pickiness on the side of the BOI, but we of course do not know the details.

I concur with your observations. I think the critical hurdle rate for WP type is non-work income (pension, investment income, rental income etc.) and the related documentary evidence. Not made easier by exchange rate swings recently. The insurance coverage and acceptable documentation and remaining (10+ months) run rate appears to be another hurdle. Will be interesting to observe how this pans out over the coming 3 - 6 months ... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even if you qualify for the conditions, they still take a very conservative position. 1) As tends to be the case with anecdotal evidence, one can always find positive and negative stories. But as JJJJJJJJ correctly points out, the huge rejection rate which consolidates all these different data points seems to indicate the possibility of quite fundamental flaws in this visa approval process. I would have expected a rejection rate of maybe 10-20% for a program like this. A rejection rate in the 70-85% range depending on the LTR category is just so many times higher than this figure that this is really rather worrying. Once the huge rejection rate becomes widely known this will probably also lead to a further decline in applications for the LTR program because some people who would in principle have been interested and who would probably meet the criteria will decide just not to bother applying because the huge rejection rate does not justify for them disclosing their confidential financial data, spending money on translation and notarization of documents and wasting their time applying for most likely being rejected. So this is actually a rather important issue. 2) For those already approved there would appear to be little reason to be concerned about this process being moved from the BOI to immigration and to fear "harassment" from the latter. A program like this just needs to be centrally managed and the Smart visa program, which is also far from a stellar success, continues to be managed by the BOI as well. 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

None of those needed for the pensioner visa as far as I am concerned. And it would be difficult to spend more than a couple of hours to apply and 90 minutes to get the visa. Also I wonder where you guys get all these figures from? And all the theories you develop are likely to be flawed simply because most of the unapproved applications will end up being approved in due course.
