Do I need to file a 90-day report with a DTV, and can I enter and exit Thailand freely during my 5-year stay?

ORIGINAL POSTER
Hi, I have a DTV. Am I right in thinking that I still have to do a 90 day report? Would I do this at immigration or online?

Also can I enter and leave the country whenever I like with no reporting process within the 5 years as long as I’m not in for more than 180 days consecutively.

Thanks in advance.

TLDR : Answer Summary
Yes, as a holder of a DTV visa, you are required to do a 90-day report if you stay in Thailand for 90 consecutive days. The first report after entering the country must be done in person at your local immigration office. After that, you can report online for subsequent 90-day reports. You can leave and re-enter Thailand whenever you like as long as you do not remain in the country for more than 180 days consecutively.

The first 90 day report needs to be in person

What is 1st time

1st time

1st time is anytime you return from an international trip you must show up in person

If you don’t want to go a 90 day report just fly Out/In every <89 days for 5 years

Good luck

Yes and yes, but if you stay more than 90 days at a time you need to report.

You have to do the 90 day report if you styed 90 consecutive days. The first time must be in person at immigration. You can leave and enter as you please within the 180 days limit.

So you know that you have to report after being 90 days in the country.

You ask if it is okay to not report when staying 180 days?

Yep, 180 days is much less than 90 days, so just leave or learn how to count to 180.

If you spend 90 consecutive days inside Thailand you are legally obliged to make a 90 day report. The first report after each entry must be done in person at your local immigration office
