So much fear mongering on this group about entry. Entered today at DMK, queues were extremely long but didn’t see one person get turned away or taken aside.

Just gave the officer my passport the system already knew I had a DTV, no questions asked and was in within about 60 seconds max from me approaching the officer. Didn’t ask for any other documents at all

As long as you’ve done everything correctly (TDAC beforehand) you have nothing to worry about.

This is my 5th entry since getting the DTV and the only questions I’ve been asked on entry (one time) is “how long have you trained Muay Thai” and “will you fight in Thailand”

I replied “for about 3 years” and “maybe but I need to lose some weight first” immigration officer laughed and let me straight in. I think she just wanted to make conversation since she was super smiley and that time there wasn’t a queue

Bare in mind guys you will hear more of the bad experiences on this group rather than the thousands of people that enter just fine

Hi, I’m a bit confused and have read some conflicting information. I had my passport stolen and I am on dtv based in Thailand. Will it be ok to order a new passport and just leave and enter again to get dtv stamp again or transfer it at immigration? Has anyone been through similar or know anything about the process? Thanks

When the DTV is approved, do they use the date of application or the actual approval date?

Applying for DTV from neighbouring Thai countries,

What is the

fastest/least problematic country in sea I should apply from?

Has anyone recently gone through the DTV visa process in Vientiane and can share how long it took to get called for the interview and receive the visa?

Any recent experiences, timelines, or tips would be super helpful!

If anyone has direct contacts at the embassy, I’d be incredibly grateful.

Thanks in advance! 🙏

At DPS airport bali now . Questioned at boarding counter, took photo of my dtv on phone.

Is there an online site and list to download the documents needed to renew my Retirement Non O Visa? Also what document shows the expiration date and how many days before it expires to renew the visa?

Hi, need to get a Certificate of Residency, just wondering what documents are currently required for this.

Will be using the Jomtien office

Hi guys,

I requested documents from Canberra, and since I have two jobs, I was provided with both contracts and a letter stating that I’m allowed to work remotely from anywhere.

However, the Thai Embassy asked for the following, and I’m a bit confused:

1) I already provided the company number in the letter, but they seem to be asking for something more official, such as a Companies House Certificate of Incorporation or a Companies House Company Profile.

Has anyone experienced this, or can you clarify what exactly they are expecting?

2) They also seem to want another letter confirming that I’m allowed to work remotely while staying in Thailand.

My previous letter included my salary and highlight work from anywhere remotely — for this new letter, is it necessary to include salary again, or is it enough to simply confirm that remote work from Thailand is permitted?

Any advice from those who have applied would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you!
