Answer summary
After obtaining your DTV visa, you have a maximum of 5 years to enter Thailand before the visa expires. Nonetheless, it's advisable to plan your arrival sooner rather than later, with suggestions indicating entering Thailand within 4 years and 11 months, or even on the last day before the expiration.
