Hi, my application got cancelled today with the reason “wrong date of issue” I’m assuming they meant the date of issue on my passport, which I checked 10 times over. I can’t even look at my original application as it is “finished” now. Is there anything I can do, or do I just have to reapply ? Same embassy or different one ? TIA

Hi and something slightly different. Does anyone know an agent in Nakon Ratchasima who can process an application for a foreigner to get a Yellow house book in Chackorat. Thanks.

Can I apply for a Thai drivers licence while on the DTV? I see you need to obtain a certificate of residence, can you get this while on the DTV, and any chance they would issue this with a month long airbnb booking? Thinking of applying in Chiang Mai. TIA

Hi friends,

My DTV visa got approved yesterday.

So now, when I enter to Thailand, I prepared my:

1- Visa pdf

2- TM30

3- In case my visa application pdfs

Do I need anything else?

Also I read some posts in groups that I don't need return ticket to show, then what should I fill out in TDAC form?

Thanks for the replies,

Best.

I entered BKK for the first time last Friday on my DTV. Following advice from someone online (can't remember who) I made a copy of my visa and had it reduced to A5 and had it laminated, so it fits inside my passport. The lady at Immigration was very impressed and had to show it to her colleague, giggling the whole time! It was a nice first experience!

My 90 day report date is during my time out of the country - do I need to let immigration know that I am absent? Take flight details to them, etc? Thanks 🙏

Did not apply for a retirement visa through an agent soon enough, so I have to leave. I’ll visit India for 2 months then return here. Can I start the application process from there? I’d so, what steps can I take?

I’ve received my Thia E-VISA yesterday 13/08/25 i assumed it would start from the day I landed in Bangkok 18/09/25 not from yesterdays date . Have i assumed wrongly.

re-entry permit question:

I leave Thailand tomorrow and don’t plan on leaving the country again during the rest of my visa extension but there might be an emergency situation - who knows.

If I get a single re-entry does that mean I have no more chances to leave on my current visa?

Who is the multiple re-entry for? Frequent flyers?

Thanks 🙏
