Good evening. Is it okay to travel abroad after receiving your DTV approval ? 

I am planning to come back bkk after my DTv approval and after 1 week

 I wanna go to other country. 

Anyone can advise me if it is okay to travel immediately?

Thank you so much.

Answer summary

Yes, you can travel abroad immediately after receiving your DTV approval. Multiple comments confirm that once you have the visa, you are free to enter and exit Thailand as you wish, even if it’s shortly after your arrival.

No! Once you enter Thailand on your DTV you are their prisoner for the first 180 days. If you leave before then, when you return you will be imprisoned for the number of days you were short of that first 180! 😆

Of course I am kidding. You could come in, stay for a day, leave for a day, and come back again. Doesn't matter how many times you enter or leave.

Once you have the visa you can enter and exit whenever you like (within the 180 day limit).
