Hi, I got a question for the accommodation info in Thailand.

We plan to get DTV first, then stay at a hotel for 1 month, during that time and we'll find and sign a 1 year condo contract.

So I guess we'll have to put the 1 month hotel info. Duration of stay (Days) we put 30 days.

But our actual duration of stay (Days) is 743 day(s). Could anyone help with what to put in the form? Or what should we do to streamline the process based on our plan?

Appreciated!

Hello! I wanted to have your opinion on my situation, it would be helpful if some of you could share your experiences

I came to thailand on May 2nd and benefited from a 2 month visa exemption

On May 17th I had to come back to my home country (France) and came back on May 21st.

When I came back, a new stamp has been done on my passport so I have been given a second visa exemption until August 21st

In September, I will go to Vietnam to apply for my DTV Visa

But in the meantime, next week, I will go to Singapour (come back on August 18th so before my visa exemption expires)

I’m thinking maybe that could seem suspicious to immigration agents

1) Do you know if I can be granted a visa exemption a third time?

2) Should I go to the immigration next week to get a visa exemption extension (+1 month)? In your experience, is this easy to get and how long does it usually take to wait at the immigration (will I be done at 12 if I get there when it opens)?

If i where to go the workation route.

What papers are exactly needed?

Applying in Oslo.

- 500k in account

- Employment contract.

- Portfolio or is resume fine?

- Paper from company that i will work remote in thailand and not with any thai customers?

The work am doing is provision based salary.

And i just started 01.08.2025.

Will this be a problem if i can prove other source of income like pension?

Pension is about 70000 bath pr month.

I will write a cover letter explaining my work, and my pension.

Is there anything else i need to think about?

Hey guys, heading back soon and just want to check which printed documents (people who have been pulled up on) have you needed?

I’ve got bank statements

Printed DTV

And then will fill out my digital card within 3 days before arriving.

Anything else?

Thank you!

hey guys! I'm 5 months into my DTV and staying in Hua Hin with my wife and 2 kids (also on DTV via me)

I need to do a border run in a month and right now we aren't feeling like taking a holiday in a nearby country like I originally planned. does anyone know the best / quickest way to just re-enter? I hear the renewal process is very tedious and not worth it?

I think the ranong crossing into Myanmar is the closest? also is there any kind of fee to pay to cross or come back? I know there is all these border run services that are asking for 5k+ per person, wondering if that's because they are doing something extra for the 30/60 day that we don't need? thank you, Thailand is amazing!!! love from an Aussie family in Thailand.

Hi, I’m based in Bangkok and I need to do a border run either this upcoming Sunday or Monday. I was speaking with a company, but they’re not responsive and I can’t wait for them. Does anyone have any recommendations? Thanks.
