Hi everyone!

My flight arrives at 11:30 PM. Does anyone know if there will be long lines at immigration? I've seen pictures of huge queues and I'm not sure if it's worth buying the fast track pass.

Thanks!

Just done on line 90 day report, and received confirmation of acceptance before I'd signed out. Took less than a minute! Someone obviously ate 3 shredded wheat for breakfast. 😁

Hi, so I have been on an education visa for the last 10 months in Thailand. I went to Melasia for a week or so and now I want to come back to Thailand as a tourist. I have a tourist E-Visa already approved however I heard they can still turn you down at the airport especially recently with the crackdowns. Because I have been living in Thailand the last 10 months and only been out for a week and a half will they turn down my tourist visa? I basically want to know if it's worth paying extra money for an agency to take me through immigration (I know they work as my friend has used them alot to bypass things, but they are expensive). Do I pay the extra money to increase my chances or is my online e-visa enough?

Because I left Thailand without a re-entry permit, my education visa is automatically void even though it was meant to last until 20th December.

Hi, I am planning to change schools. I currently hold a Non-B visa, and I understand that I will need to do a border run to obtain a new one. The agency informed me that I cannot apply for a new visa within Thailand even I do border run and must do it in Laos, where the process would take 3–4 weeks.

Has anyone experienced this before? Is this information accurate?

Certificate of Residence

I’m on business owner / freelancer DTV

I want to get the certificate in order to register bike on my name.

Today I went to an immigration office in Koh Phangan with:

- TM30

- Passport copy

- DTV copy

- 4x6 photos

But I’ve got an answer that I need to provide my bank statements and proof of funds again. Even though DTV started couple of weeks ago.

Perhaps I should try Koh samui? I’ve seen posts in this group saying they got it with what I’ve already brought.

These guys at KP has always been angry about everything. Extremely unpleasant to go there.

Photo requirements

Hi, I just downloaded a professional headshot jpeg after being scanned, and the website gave me a warning saying it might not be accepted as the eye level (?) is not right— or something like this, it was a 5 seconds warning which disappeared later so I couldn’t even read again. Photo is actually exactly fitting the shoulder level and head size etc, did anyone come across with this warning before?

Hello,

I hold a METV and i Applied for DTV in Jakarta and the embassy asked me to contact the issuing embassy to cancel the METV. I already contacted the issuing embassy and they say they can’t cancel the visa. I’ve seen some people managed to cancel their METV. Could you please share how you managed that? Could you please share what proof of voided visa looks like so i can share with the issuing embassy?

How many pages for a Freelancer portfolio would be fine for applying Dtv?

any one known about this?

Can i go another way used Airport

anybody know?

i have thai e visa.

CERTIFICATE OF RESIDENCE

It appears that Chaengwattana did indeed change their process for getting a certificate of residence.

Before you showed up (with a valid TM30) applied for it, paid 200baht, got a receipt with an EMS tracking number on it and they mailed the certificate to you in about 5 days

NOW

You go out, (still need a current TM30) you apply, get a receipt with a date a week out to come back and pick up the certificate in person :O <- meaning you go out there twice (once to apply and once to pick it up) :(

Thank you for the people who questioned me when I was saying they still mailed them out (y) You guys (and gals) were right :) they changed the process and I was not dialed in.

My apologies to Bangkokianz for getting it wrong :/
