Hi everyone, I'm about to travel to Taiwan to apply for the DTV visa.

I would appreciate it if you could share your experiences regarding the following:

1. Assuming my original documents are not in English, do they require an official translation with a notary's signature and stamp?

2. Is the visa fee only payable if I am approved? In other words, if my application is rejected, do I not have to pay?

Thank you very much!

Hello, everyone!

Did any of you already re-entered with DTV visa? I spent 170 days in Thailand already and I am thinking about visiting Vietnam for a week and coming back. Will there be issue? Do the immigration officers asking for any additional document on re-entering?

Thank you so much!

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

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??
