If I am on the DTV; in 180 days would I have to submit all the same paperwork as before? Or do a border run every 150 days and just get restamped?

TLDR : Answer Summary

The discussion revolves around the DTV (Digital Nomad Visa) and the process related to its validity and extensions. Users share that after 180 days, one can exit the country and return to get a new stamp without needing to resubmit all documentation. However, detailed requirements for extending the visa within Thailand remain unclear, particularly concerning the 90-day reporting process.

DTV VISA RESOURCES / SERVICES

Take the basic DTV Qualification Test to see if you're eligible for the Destination Thailand Visa (DTV).

What about 90 day reporting, I heard you need to resubmit allot of things almost like you are reapplying for the visa again

90 day reports are for basically any stay in Thailand of 90 days irregardless of which visa. But no, you don't have to supply the same information as when you get the DTV.

The 90 day report is simple with a few pieces of paperwork. The purpose is to update immigration with where you are living and is not related to the visa.

, You need to do a 90-day report if you stay longer than 90 days continuously. You also need to check what documents are required at your local office. Generally, you bring your passport, a filled TM47 form, and a TM30 receipt. Some offices require copies of them or some more papers. Some require only your passport.

You can stay up to 180 days (it doesn't matter how many), then leave the country and return and get a new 180 stamp each time. Easy, I've already done it.

Extension- still unknown what the requirements will be

no one knows how it works to get an extension INSIDE the country because no one has been ON a DTV long enough to have applied for one at an immigration office

You can exit/re-enter and get a new 180 days without any issue at all
