Can anyone recommend a great agency for help with DTV in Thailand please?🙏 I’m sure it’s been asked a bunch of times in here so I apologize.

Hello, does anyone here have any experience with the consulate in Frankfurt in relation to the point of employment? I work for a telecommunication company, however I don’t have an explicit certificate for remote work. Does anyone have any experience with if the industry you work in is closing remote is sufficient for the visa? or in general has anyone submitted a request without a remote notice?

-------------

Hallo, hat hier jemand Erfahrungen mit dem Konsulat in Frankfurt in Bezug auf den Punkt mit dem Beschäftigungsverhältnis? Ich arbeite in einem Telekommunikationsunternehmen, habe allerdings keine explizite Bescheinigung für Remote-Work. Hat jemand Erfahrung damit, wenn die Branche in der man tätig ist, auf Remote schließen lässt ausreichend ist für das Visa? oder generell schonmal jemand eine Anfrage eingereicht ohne Remote Hinweis?

Hi there, I wanted to ask for clarification on two items for the DTV application as an applicant in the US-LA Consulate. I did some searches and couldn't find answers.

1. The DTV application asks for city of birth but my passport lists the state of birth. Which should I use?

2. I have a hyphenated last name. The application does not allow for hyphens. The MRC data at the bottom of the passport has a "<" between my two last names. Do I use a space or run the two last names together?

Does the applicant need to enter Thailand within a specific time frame after being issued the visa? Or can they enter the county for the first time within the 5 year period

My DTV visa was approved, but I have already left my home country and come to Thailand. In order to activate the visa, I need to leave Thailand, and re-enter. Has anyone done this, or had any issues doing it? Asking because the Dtv visa application asks for last Port of embarkation, flight number, etc.

What should I do, I entered on the 24th of December 2024 and 180 days would be 22nd of June, I ajve booked my flight for this day from bangkok back to my home country.

I have just noticed my passport is stamped to 21st June I'm guessing mistakenly. This is obviously today and I am debating overstaying a day as immigration is shut today and tomorrow and my flight is tomorrow. I have asked the airline about changing this but it is not possible.

What would peoples advice be would 1 day overstay due to a miscalculation of the days on the stamp, to be clear 180 days from entry including day of entry is 22nd of June, be a serious issue if so how?

Also what will happen if I try to board the flight while having the 1 day overstay

I started my DTV application on the thaievisa.go.th website. At one point they ask me when I want to go to Thailand, what flight number, how long I want to stay, and "I shouldn't ask for the DTV visa more than 3 months before actually going to Thailand".

Questions:

1. I want to get my visa first before booking my flight and accomodation, so can I just fill random stuff temporarily?

2. If I get my DTV, is there a 3 months limit like other visas, like if I don't enter Thailand during these 3 months my DTV is lost?

Thailand Non-Immigrant O Visa (Single Entry)

Validity of Visa: When you are issued a Non-O visa (single entry), it's usually valid for 90 days from the date of issue. This means you must enter Thailand within those 90 days.

Duration of Stay: When you enter Thailand using that visa, you will be granted a 90-day stay, regardless of how many days are left before the visa expires.

Example:

Visa issued: 1 July

Visa valid until: 28 September (90 days later)

You enter Thailand: 27 September

Your stamp at immigration: 90 days from 27 September → so, until 25 December

âś… Key point: The validity period is only about how long you have to use the visa to enter. Once you're in, the 90-day stay starts from your date of entry.
