We made a DTV which is approved from 2 July 2026 for 5years does my guy need to arrive within the next 90 days like on other visas validity entry 90 days or is it ok if he just come in October first time to Thailand with that Visa ???
Answer summary
The DTV (digital nomad visa) is valid for 5 years from the date of issuance, and the holder can enter Thailand at any time within that 5-year period. There is no requirement to arrive within 90 days as is common with other visa types—entry can be made at any point during the visa's validity.

On each eVisa you have a end of validity date... that the date you have to enter Thailand at latest.

The DTV is valid for 5 years from the date it's issued, you can enter Thailand whenever you want in that 5 year period.
