90 day reports with a DTV. I want to share my experience so that others may learn from it.

1. You must do your 90 day report in the province that your TM-30 address is located.

2. You have to do your report in person if you hold a DTV. There are no options for online filing, unless you have done the 6 month extension in country without leaving to reset the visa. I will explain this more below.

I recently needed to do my 2nd 90 day report while holding a DTV in Thailand. I read that after the first report in person you may submit the following reports online. This is true, however the count of reports submitted resets after every new arrival in the country. As a DTV holder, I leave every 6 months for a period of time so I will never have a 2nd 90 day report on one visit into Thailand. The 7 day grace period covers any "tight" timelines on having to do a 2nd 90 day report in 6 months.

I was traveling visiting some friends during my last reporting window and submitted online, only to be rejected. I visited the local immigration facility and it was explained to me that I needed to do the report where I live only. They were very nice and calmed my fears of problems with immigration by helping me understand the 7 day grace period after the 90 days in country that you have to file. I was home before that time was expired so everything worked out fine.

I just wanted to help anyone else that might not have gone through the 90 report process yet. Because of the slight pain of the process in my busy area now that it is high season, I might consider one of those do it for you visa services to file my next 90 day report, if they don't charge too much.

Hi tomorrow I will fly to Suvarnabhumi after I was 3 weeks away. Would I get issues with DTV? Last time they brought a supervisor and after questioning a bit she said it's good you have DTV but why the first officer is not looking at that then? I thought DTV entry was low risk.

Should I show the officer the stamped visa inside the passport? Mine is not e-visa.

I am at about 150 days in Thailand this calander year. I was going to stay though the new year but going to Vietnam now so I don’t exceed 180 days and become “tax resident”. I don’t want to deal with the confusion and additional paperwork when I could just go to another country in the region. I wonder if Thai authorities realize how many people are going to other countries to avoid getting this status? That’s a lot of money being spent outside Thailand due to this confusion over the tax law for foreigners. They should clarify

Has anyone ever applied as a contractor for their own company vs applying as a company. If so have you just signed as yourself to say you can work remotely and also that you work for “the company”? Thanks

Dear friends,

Whether it’s for a visa, airport arrival, or an interview — you don’t *need* to print every document. But since printing everything costs less than $1, why not just do it?

Go ahead and print!

I’ve seen so many people asking the same question — for example, about the TDAC form. It’s not required, but still… why not?

It’s always better to have a printed copy just in case.
