Do I need to do anything before leaving Thailand with an expired tourist visa while holding a valid DTV visa?

You need to leave before the 60 days are up.

With your DTV valid until 2030 and your current stay on a 60-day tourist visa expiring soon, here's what you should know:

*Validity of DTV: Since your DTV is a multiple-entry visa, you can enter and exit Thailand multiple times within its validity period. Each entry on a DTV allows for a stay up to 180 days.

*Current Tourist Visa: The 60-day tourist visa you entered on will expire soon, but this does not directly impact your DTV as long as you are not overstaying.

*Exit and Re-entry: When you leave Thailand in two weeks, your current tourist visa will be considered used up upon exit. However, because your DTV is valid, you won't face issues related to an expired tourist visa stamp.

Suggestions:

*Before Leaving: You don't need to do anything specific before your exit if you're leaving within the validity of the tourist visa.

*Upon Re-entry: When you return to Thailand, present your DTV documentation. This will allow you to enter Thailand again under the conditions of your DTV, which permits a stay of up to 180 days per entry.

*Potential Issues*:

- Immigration officers might occasionally question the sequence of visas if they see an expired tourist visa stamp when you return. However, having your DTV documentation should clarify your status.

- Ensure you have all your DTV-related documents readily available, including any electronic or printed proof of your visa.

I assume you mean you entered Thailand on a 60 day visa exempt stamp, then got the DTV a little while later. The DTV and the exempt are 2 different things and one does not cover for the over.

You should leave Thailand before the arrival stamp expires, then re-enter Thailand on the DTV (a print out is helpful to show immigration) to get a new stamp which will be 180 days.

When exiting Thailand, your current visa or visa exemption will be canceled. Be sure to do so before the 60 day stamp expires. When entering next time, you will show the DTV and get a 180 day stamp.

The stamp is not the visa. A visa is an allowance to enter the country. The stamp says when you have to leave.
