Hypothetical situation, you applied for an e-visa in your home country. Due to uncontrollable circumstances, there was a very long delay in the approval process. You have taken the decision to travel to Thailand and enter visa exempt, instead of waiting for e-visa approval. I am thinking this may have consequences. Maybe you are denied entry visa exempt, because of pending e-visa approval or upon entry visa exempt, the e-visa application is automatically cancelled, as it should be. If anyone has had this experience, I would be interested in hearing your story.

90 day report done online 14 days prior due-date in Phuket and accepted within 1 hour.

Since I arrived in Phuket nearly 2 years ago, never had to show-up life at immigration for report, despite several travels outside Thaïland. Always submitted 10-14 days prior due-date and TM30 always done at return.

This is my experience in Phuket.

I lived in Thailand from Jun 23 - Sep 24 on a Non-OA retirement visa. I plan to visit in Feb for a few weeks. Would I have any issues on entering with a visa exemption as a US citizen?

DTV.

.

Should i apply on a website or walk in to an embassy?

.

I see this has been done both by different youtuber.

.

I will be going to Cambodia to re-enter Thailand, so it going to be a Thai Embassy in Phnom Penh.

.

Im also collecting my Documents.

.

✅ Proof of cash, I have a bank statement showing 300k AUD under my personal name. [not business name]

.

✅ Proof of employment - Im writing a letter to prove that I work for myself.

.

✅ Proof of Current location- Im actually unsure of this. it could be my hotel in Cambodia once booked.

.

✅ Passport and Photo. those are easy to get on that day.

.

Question

1- does anyone has any experience with the phnom penh embassy?

2- is my letter good enough?

3- should I go to Cambodia and apply thru embassy or do online , or will there any difference?

Australian citizen, just used my DTV for my second entry into Thailand.

Both times I've been interrogated about my accomodation in Thailand, and this time the immigration officer seemed quite hostile and asked me for exit date, if I have a Thai wife, if I live in Cambodia (that's the consulate I asked for my DTV), what was I doing in Cambodia, and if I'm working in Thailand.

Could I be doing something wrong to attract all this attention? I don't mind a few questions, but I thought I'd got a valid visa in accordance with Thai immigration rules.

So far it has caused more scrutiny than just using a visa waiver.

American on Visa Exempt. How do I extend? Is that still in person or online? The site i found closest option was for a tourist visa but it's not technically a tourist visa.

I have the DTV Visa and planning on getting an extension at Bangkok immigration whilst out there but I cant find out what documents I need. In the past with the 60 day tourist visa I got a 30 day extension. I just needed to fill out a form, bring passport, passport photos and pay a fee. Is it the same when getting a 180 day extension with the DTV? Also after getting the extension and almost staying out there for a year can I do a border run instead of taking a flight home?

hello , can you apply to your visa before going to the location of your choice ( with already hotel and flight booked ) and come back to Thailand ?

thanks
