Hello guys,

I applied for DTV visa but i still have a valid multiple entry tourist visa for Thailand. Does anyone know if I can go to thailand with the valid tourist visa while DTV is still pending?

Can I leave Thailand to reenter with the newly approved DTV visa after my tourist visa expires?

Me (primary applicant) and my family are on DTV workcation visa. It mentions clearly that we can't work in Thailand. However, my daughter will be school going soon. Can she study in Thailand as a normal visa holder or any limitations in DTV? Will she be admitted in public schools (I am ok with her learning Thai language) or shall I only opt for international ones?

What happens with soft power after you finish the course?

Can you go out and back again the following year without a booked class?

Do they question you?

Hi all,

Does the 90 day reporting clock restart everytime you leave & return? (Or is it every 90 days from visa issuance no matter what)?

Thank you

My 2nd 90-day report is due on 13 November, but I will leave the country on 17 November. Since itโ€™s still within the 7-day grace period after the 13th, should I still do my 2nd 90-day report, or can I just leave the country on the 17th? Will there be any problems?

I did my first report prior 4 days before the due date,

My visa will be expired nov 18th, but my 90 days report due nov 13th. So there is no overstay

Hi everyone! ๐Ÿ‘‹

Iโ€™m currently living on the DTV in Chiang Mai, Thailand, and Iโ€™m wondering how scooter/motorbike accident insurance works here. I already have health insurance, but Iโ€™m not sure how things are handled in case of an accident โ€” for example, if Iโ€™m involved in a crash or cause damage.

Of course, I hope it never happens ๐Ÿ˜…, but Iโ€™d like to understand how itโ€™s usually arranged here. Do you get it through a local provider, rental company, or separately?

Thanks a lot in advance for any insights or experiences you can share! ๐Ÿ™

hi I want to know if my local immi has made a mistake. I arrived in the beginning of June last year on a non-o based on marriage. August 1 I applied for an extension of stay . I was told to come back and got the under consideration stamp and I should come again October 1 (yeah 2 months later!) That extension expired September 1. This is a 1 year extension valid for 11 months. Is this because the under consideration was so long - 2 months - or is it a mistake?
