I'm pretty sure I know the answer to this, but I've been hearing different things from different people... 

I have the DTV. I am about to exit for the first time, spend two weeks in another country, and then come back in. 

I don't think I need to pay for a multiple-entry permit, correct? Because the DTV already is a multiple-entry visa... Am I mistaken?

The stamp in my passport does not say multiple entry, but just says "DTV" on the stamp. 

When I exit the country, will they give me an exit stamp and give me a new entry one? 

And do I need to bring anything with me besides my passport?

Thanks in advance!

Answer summary

The DTV visa is indeed a multiple-entry visa, so you do not need to apply for a separate multiple-entry permit. When you exit Thailand, you will receive an exit stamp, and when you return, you will get a new entry stamp. Additionally, remember to file a TDAC (Travel Declaration Approval Certificate) each time you enter Thailand, along with your passport.

You need nothing. Just a TDAC every time you enter the kingdom. This is a must for every non-Thai passport holder, irrespective of visa (or lack of) type.
