TLDR : Answer Summary

The conversation addresses the necessity for holders of the LTR visa to carry the original PDF paperwork from the Thai embassy even after receiving the entry stamp in their passport. It confirms that if the LTR visa was issued online and approved via the eVisa website, the PDF serves as proof of the visa and must be presented at passport control.

Okay now I understand what you're talking about, 🙂

IF you got the LTR visa issued online thru the eVisa website <- meaning you were emailed a PDF file when it was approved that IS your visa.. All you got when you entered the country was a small entry stamp

That means YES, you do have to carry that PDF print out with you and give it to passport control when you stamp in because it IS the proof you have that visa.
