I arrived today having already completed the TDAC, I was emailed the qr code which I assume would be scanned. The I.O. said it was already on record and no need to scan it ?

I arrived in Thailand on the 21st September on a 60 day exempt and have a flight booked for Laos after 58 days where I’m staying for 9 days i then come back to Thailand and have another flight booked for Bali after 58 days, where I’ll be spending 10 days i then arrive back in Thailand beginning of February and have my flight booked home to the Netherlands end of March. My question is will I have any problems at immigration? I don’t expect to as I’m not doing any extensions to my 60 days and I’m going home within 6 months, to me this is just a holiday but would welcome views from people who know more than me concerning the re entering Thailand etc. I don’t really feel like applying for a retirement visa yet as I’m only going to be here for 6 months in a year. Advice, thoughts accepted. Thanks

When using the monthly income for "extension of stay" if submitting a credit advice for proof of income coming from abroad do you still need a 1 year bank statement?? We've lived here 12 years & every year has subtle changes 😉 logic says no but.....

Penalty for over staying DTV - Question

I will be leaving Thailand soon and will have exceeded the number of days allowed (DTV Visa) by 5 days.

I have been informed that the penalty that I will need to pay at the airport is 500 baht per day x 5 days = 2,500 baht.

My question is whether that penalty can be paid by credit card or does the payment need to be in baht?

Thanks is advance

Asking for advice.

I just renewed my passport inside Thailand and I'll have to do my 6 month DTV visa run around January. I read on this group that whenever I enter the country, I'll need to show both new and old passport because my DTV visa is stamped in the old one. But what is the process at the departure immigration like? If anyone has experience, please let me know.

Thank you!
