ORIGINAL POSTER

May I have questions about DTV with cooking class? Is there anyone having the experience of extending DTV with cooking class after 180 days? Does it require you to enroll in cooking class again for the next 180 days? Thank you.

TLDR : Answer Summary

The inquiry is about the possibility of extending a DTV visa (Digital Nomad Visa) in Thailand through participation in a cooking class after the initial 180 days. Responses indicate that ongoing enrollment in an activity is necessary for visa extension. Additionally, some individuals have shared experiences of successfully traveling in and out of Thailand under the DTV without issues, merely requiring proof of the visa.

Yes, if you wish to extend it in Thailand, you'll need an ongoing activity.
