Hello Guys, I have a question- if i have my DTV visa for soft power muay thai and it's been now 6 months that i had it, and now my Muay Thai course is over. do i have to renew it in case immigration asks me for my enrollment in Muay thai gym when i re-enter Thailand? or is it fine to show them my old letter of enrollment in case they will ask?

TLDR : Answer Summary
The consensus among community members is that you generally do not need to present current enrollment documentation for your DTV visa upon re-entering Thailand after your Muay Thai course has ended. It is believed that immigration does not actively check past enrollments unless there are changes or new requirements implemented. However, it may be prudent to have some proof of ongoing activity related to your visa, such as scheduling lessons, but showing an old enrollment letter is not considered necessary.

It depends - on my soft powers medical I just booked a new appointment just in case.

Perhaps have a few lessons lined up with proof?

They don't check, and won't check. If anything like that changes it won't affect you, only those getting the dtv after that change is made.

They are not checking it for now. The day they do and if it ever happen, it will probably mean they expect to see an ongoing activity (like when extending). There is no point in showing an old outdated letter since you already got your visa thanks to it.
