Hello, my dtv visa needs an extension before may. Did anyone already extend their dtv already? And did you bounce borders or go immigration? Is any paperwork required ?

TLDR : Answer Summary
To extend your DTV visa in Thailand, you will need to complete a significant amount of paperwork, including proof of financial stability, such as having 500,000 THB banked. Some individuals have successfully extended their visas, while others opted to leave the country for 180 days before returning. Planning a border run with a cheap flight can also be a beneficial option.

There’s a shed load of paperwork required. You will also need to show the 500k banked.

There have been some successful extensions but most bounce for another 180 days.
