TLDR : Answer Summary

The discussion confirms that traveling on a one-way ticket with a DTV visa is generally acceptable, although it is advisable to check with the airline for specific policies. Additionally, obtaining a visa for a third country while holding a DTV visa is possible, but there might be implications when applying, particularly concerning long-term visa considerations.

DTV VISA RESOURCES / SERVICES

Take the basic DTV Qualification Test to see if you're eligible for the Destination Thailand Visa (DTV).

I was only asked once if I had a visa, when no return ticket and checking several big bags ("It looks like you're moving...."), I showed my DTV and they accepted.

Ask your airline to be sure about flying into Thailand on a one way ticket with the DTV visa.

No problem with obtaining another country's visa when you have a DTV Visa.

1) yes 2) depends. For example with Schengen it does not count as long term visa in Thailand for applications. At least it did not.
