Is 2-3 days sufficient for a DTV border run in Thailand, especially considering my pets?
When it’s time to do my first DTV border run, do you think 2-3 days is enough? I’m on workation and never had issues 🙏 I’ve just heard some people say they want you out for some time and I’ve got pets, it’s not in my interest. Thank you in advance.

What makes you believe that DTV holders are experiencing changing degrees of difficulty when entering at Bangkok airports? Why should a second entry be more problematic than others? Why do you believe it is difficult for DTV holders to enter unless they spend extra money on the fast track service? Are you trolling by any chance?

Unless it says Muay Thai on it they won't even know that's how you applied for it. Relax.

Why fast track, as other DTV holders explain:
This 5 year Tourist visa based on 6 months Muay Thai allows you to work during your stay in Thailand, Nothing to worry about, If Immigration ask, just show their comments.

I say NO, only option for on-line work without Thai clients ispurpose workcation (Digital Nomad/Remote Worker/Foreign Talent/Free lancers, BUT that is the official wording of the Thai Minsitry of Foreign Affairs who as you know have no clue about Thai visa regulations.
OR as DTV specialists say, foreigners must provide print out of the Thai law in English, certified by lawyers, DTV holders, foreign ministries and who know others to be believed as true.

If you have proof of you attending classes then you're OK. It's been known for immigration to pull out the gloves and pads for a sparring session, seriously. No proof? Just get the fast track.
