ORIGINAL POSTERHi everyone!
I might have a rather stupid question but this visa is still new and confusing so please forgive my ignorance.
DTV visa is a multiple entry visa and is given for 5 years. Every time you enter you get 180 days.
Does it mean 2x180 entries a year x 5 years or like I am allowed to travel and have, say, 3-4 entries a year without it affecting the overall 5 years timeline?

TLDR : Answer Summary
The DTV visa is a multiple-entry visa valid for 5 years, allowing you to enter Thailand an unlimited number of times. Each entry grants you a 180-day stay. Therefore, you can potentially manage multiple entries each year without affecting the overall validity of the visa over its 5-year period.

In theory you could get six years out of this visa with an entry just before it expires and then an extension in country.

I’ve had my DTV since November and I’ve entered 6 times each time with a 180 day stamp each time
