Hi, I need some advice. I’m planning to go back to Thailand on a single entry tourist visa in a few months and do plan to stay the 60days. I will have a flight back to the UK and accomodation proof as well. It will have been 8 months since my last visit which was a visa exemption changed to a 6 months education visa which i left to come back to England one month earlier than the expiry date. When I go back, in the last two years I’ve had one single entry tourist visa which I extended for 30 days, two visa exemptions (one was 16 days holiday) and the other was the one I mentioned above converting to education visa. I’m just worried about Thai immigration as I’ve heard they can be very strict sometimes and worried about education visa stamp on my passport. I did attend classes and can understand and speak Thai a little bit but still slightly nervous. I know I don’t have as many entries as other people but just not sure as Immigration at Phuket airport can be unpredictable. Any advice welcome!

90 day report/tm 47 update

So after going on the immigration website and seeing nowhere that the first application had to be done in person, I took the chance and applied online.

Applied at 11.40 this morning. Received the receipt at 16.09. 🙌🏼🙏🏻

Will do my husband’s on Monday.

Has anyone done a border run from Phuket to Padang Besar via Hat Yai? I know there is bus Phuket-HatYai and mini van HatYai-Padang?

And about the actual border crossing, is it possible to exit with the passport I came in with, and re-enter with another passport (dual citizenship)?

My plan was to go to Thailand at the end of February and then to Vietnam and Bali from mid of March to mid of April. Before going back to Sweden spend a few days in Bangkok. All in less than 60 days.

But now, after reading about ETA, I have been really confused. There are so many contradictions when trying to find out what’s right.

Can I do this without problems? Boarder crossings will be by air. Fights to and from Stockholm probably with Thai airways.

I’ve already asked the Thai embassy in Stockholm but they passed me on to Immigration. I guess you are giving me a quicker answer.

Is there somebody know how many days before the end of my 60 days waiver I can do extension in Kanchanaburi?

How is the immigration process for a DTV holder in Thailand? How frequently should I go to immigration office for the paperwork?

Report/ experience share: European male DTV holder (Cultural Option) here. I recently re-entered TH for the first time in '25 via Suvarnabhumi. (1st time was via Train Lao - TH in late '24). Following questions asked: A) "Do you work remotely?" I said truthfully 'yes, remotely'. B) "How long do you stay in TH this time?" I said truthfully: 3 to 4 months. C) 'You changed Visa last year from another Visa to DTV? [Looking at lots of old stamps...]. I said: Yes.

-Then she stamped me. No 'welcome to Thailand' was heard this time.. Okay - I love 🫶 🇹🇭 you anyways, dear Thailand! (Guess I'm *still* in honeymoon phase ;)

Hi guys. I am in Pattaya. I want to apply dtv visa, by taking cooking classes. Anyone knows an approved governmental agency, not too expensive, in order to be sure to be accepted? I intend to leave Thailand and go to Cambodia do the visa. Thanks.

Can I apply for DTV in Vietnam while being a Pakistani resident? Or do I need to go back to Pakistan?

Sorry guys, I'm a bit confused about the "two addresses" situation.

When I say that my permanent address is not the same as my current one, it offers me add another one.

However they are both called "Home address", and I'm confused about which one should be the one back in my home country, and which one is my place of stay in Cambodia?

Thanks in advance for the help 🙏
