DTV Visa Visa Extension 90 Day Reporting Thailand Immigration Visa Rules Expats in Thailand

ORIGINAL POSTER

# Hi all! I just got my DTV approved in Brussels, I'm so happy and thankful.

I still have some questions for anyone who might know:

1. How do you extend your stay after 180 days? If I travel outside Thailand once in a while, will that be sufficient and give me another 180 days every time? Or do i need to apply somewhere and pay an extension fee?

2. I hear 90 day reporting for the DTV is required, is that correct? What's the procedure for this? (my residence will be in Silom, Bangkok)

Thanks!

For anyone preparing to apply, here's my experience:

I applied using the Thai E-visa website (Brussels embassy). The documents I submitted (additional from my passport scans, photo etc) were:

- Certificate of main residence ('Attest van Hoofdverblijfplaats')

- A PDF containing my company registration (from the Belgian KBO website) + a brief portfolio (about 6 pages) of web development projects I have been working on during the last couple of years

- A certificate from my bank stating the current amount on my savings account ('Attest bevestiging saldo', dated 2 days prior to my application date) (I requested this from my bank per telephone).

I waited for 25 days before the visa got approved, the confirmation came per email with a PDF e-visa attached.

TLDR : Answer Summary

The user has received approval for a DTV visa and is seeking advice on extending their stay beyond 180 days and the required 90-day reporting process. It is mentioned that one can apply for a 180-day extension or reenter Thailand to receive a new 180-day stamp each time. Additionally, a 90-day reporting to the immigration office is compulsory, with the procedure requiring an in-person report for the first instance.

I am sure you came across this before...many foreigners opt to never do the 90 day report and just pay 2000 baht fine every year, as it gives a relief from the stringet immigration office's polices, which are unnecessary, and a joke to avoid for 60 USD. People who tell you to report are conditioned to their homeland terror. I personally haven't seen an immigration office for years (on a non Immi visa - what to speak of a tourist visa, duh) as little money can buy anything. But I encourage this only if you are a person adhering to the spirit of the Thai people.
