ORIGINAL POSTERTLDR : Answer Summary
The user inquired about traveling outside Thailand with a DTV visa and what needs to be done after the initial 180 days. Comments indicated that reentry is usually straightforward, with a fresh 180-day stamp upon returning. It's recommended to have course enrollment evidence when reentering. The visa is valid for 5 years with multiple entries, so as long as the user does not exceed the 180-day stay, there are no additional requirements. Another user asked if the soft power course needs to be continued beyond 6 months, and the consensus was that it is only required for the first 6 months.
