ORIGINAL POSTERTLDR : Answer Summary
The individual, who was recently approved for a DTV (Digital Nomad Visa), is inquiring whether their 3-year-old child needs a separate visa to stay in Thailand. Most responses in the comments indicate that while technically a visa is required for the child, enforcement is lax until the age of 15, meaning they can stay with their parent without immediate penalties. Some commenters recommend applying for a dependent DTV for the child to avoid potential complications later, especially regarding overstay issues which could arise with frequent travel.
