Hello,

I'd like to ask for advice. I previously applied for a DTV visa, but the title wasn't eligible. The embassy approved a TR visa for me on June 16. Now, I've enrolled in a cooking class and want to reapply for a DTV visa. Can I still apply, or are there any restrictions?

I'd appreciate any guidance from those who have experienced a similar situation.

Thanks in advance.

You'll most likely need to wait until it expires.

Is your current visa a single entry or multi entry tourist visa? You can’t apply until that visa expires. If single entry, it is expired/finished when you exit Thailand to go somewhere and apply for the DTV. However, if multiple entry, you will need to wait until the expiration date on the visa. You would still need to exit the county to apply..

Anonymous participant if you exit Thailand, you have used up it’s one time use, so no longer a valid visa. Therefore, I think you can apply then, once you leave.

correct, if it's a single entry tourist visa. It's used on First Entry. Can leave any time - as the single entry tourist visa is USED... and Apply for the DTV visa.
