Hi, has anyone on a DTV soft power visa been asked to show proof of ongoing classes when reentering after the 6 month period? And how did you handle the situation if yes. Thanks!

TLDR : Answer Summary
The question revolves around whether proof of ongoing classes is required for reentry into Thailand on a DTV soft power visa after the 6-month period. The discussion reveals mixed experiences, with some individuals reporting they were never asked for proof, while others suggest being prepared with documentation, such as invoices for classes or letters from schools, to avoid any issues at the border.

I got the visa pdf and soft power invoice printed off (a6 size) and laminated. Visa one side and documents on the other. Have done 2 land border crossings but haven't been asked as yet

Just book a couple of dental appointments if you're worried about being asked.

Dental appointments will only work when you got approved for dental treatment.

No it doesn't matter what you got approved with. You can change as you wish.

i got told that dental work is not seen as medical. Needs to be hospital

Never been asked on 3 DTV entries, but I have a full receipt history printed off and ready to show, and pre booked classes on each entry.

Some say I don’t need to but imagine being stopped and asked and you have nothing to show

I have not seen anyone posting they were asked to show this at a port of entry. If they were they would need to show the classes were booked, maybe by a letter from the school and a paid invoice.
