What are the major Pro and Cons of DTV visa? I had understood that it is maximum for 5 yrs. and that you dont actually get 180 each time you exit and return.. can someone lay it out simply... thanks ( I am not looking at the money in the bank - I knw about that and it is not an issue in mny case) just if it can be applied from within thailand and its pro and cons

thankyou

Travel insurance is very important in the DTV file?

Hello just know if someone who has his own physical and online company can apply for the DTV

Two questions

1) does anyone know how long they are going to keep this visa or is there risk of them abruptly removing it down the road ? I was going to apply next year.

2) i heard that you only get one 180 day extension in the 5 year period. Does that sound right ?

Hi do Australians coming for tourism purposes in December require the e-visa? or is the 30 day exemption still in place?

Hello guys, have a question regarding the border run. I was told that it is impossible to do a border run if the 60-day visa exemption is extended for 30 days, so if someone wants to do a border run and get another 60 days, they must not extend their 60-day visa exemption. Is this true??

Hi, hope you’re all well 🤍 I’m Australian and currently in Chiang Mai on the Tourist Visa (60 days). I would like to apply for a 30 day extension. I was hoping someone could assist me please 🙏

Is it possible to do this all online or do I need to visit an Immigration Office? If I need to do in person:

- which Immigration Office would you recommend?

- can I apply 2 weeks in advance?

- can I make photocopies of passport and take passport photos at the Inmigration Offices?

Thank you so much!

I want to cross the border into Myanmar in Ranong in January for the border run. Has anyone been there recently and did everything go smoothly?

Hello guys,

In 2026 I will surely apply for the DTV VISA but for the year 2025 I only plan to stay 6 months in Thailand.

How do you manage to rent for 6 months?

I have the impression that it's an obstacle course. 99% of landlords only want a minimum one-year contract.

For those of you who have been able to rent for 6 months, how did you manage?

My agent have recommended that I rent for 1 year, but he'd find me a renter at the end of the 6 months.

Do you have any advice?

Thanks in advance
