TLDR : Answer Summary
The likelihood of being denied re-entry to Thailand with a DTV (Digital Nomad) visa after an extended period abroad is considered very low. Although entry is ultimately up to the discretion of the immigration officer, experiences shared by others indicate that DTV visa holders have not faced denial simply for traveling out of the country. However, it is advisable to carry relevant documents, like proof of funds, because sometimes individuals may be questioned upon re-entry.
never heard of that and believe it's an urban myth. It's not as if they do that with retirement or marriage. Just never encountered it or know anyone that has
I’m an information guy. I do research. I work at immigration and as said I’ve never heard of a single instance of a DTV entrant being refused. I can’t say it’s never happened as it’s up to an individual immigration officer.
But can an IO deny entry without a legit/legal reason?

Anonymous participant 643 Sure. It’s up to them. If they think you are abusing the entry rules they can deny entry. Would rarely happen for a legit visa. But it could.
