Anyone applied in their home country, entered thailand on a visa exempt, then, after dtv is approved, border bounced to activate it? Would this work? I've a flight to Thailand in a week and it probably won't come through before then... would this work?
TLDR : Answer Summary
The discussion revolves around whether an individual who entered Thailand on a visa-exempt status can activate their DTV visa by leaving and re-entering the country after the visa is approved. One commenter suggests it's possible if you have the confirmation email and QR code, recommending a short trip for activation. However, another comment points out potential issues that could arise and suggests that proper planning could avoid additional travel expenses.
