ORIGINAL POSTER

For soft power DTV re-entering, did airport immigration ask you for proof of continuing the classes? Also if you are working remotely as well, did you tell them? (If they ask what you are doing)

TLDR : Answer Summary

In discussions regarding airport immigration for those with a Digital Nomad Visa (DTV) re-entering Thailand, experiences vary. Some travelers report being asked to demonstrate their Thai language skills or physical abilities as part of their visa requirements. Others mention that they were not questioned about their visa purpose at all, and some have noted their visa indicates 'Employment Prohibited,' which may lead officials to have prior knowledge of the visa type. Overall, honesty about intentions seems to be recommended, although specific experiences may differ, especially for remote workers.

I exit (and reenter) every month, some times twice a month since I got my DTV 16 months ago, and I've never been asked anything. Remote worker here. If they ask, I can give them my business card and show them about my job.

I don't get asked anything but my DTV just says Employment Prohibited on it. They don't even know I applied via soft power Muay Thai.

The truth is most of the time the best.

BUT if you have the wrong purpose of vsia, it helps to keep avoiding to tell the truth.
