Anyone experienced your DTV is not reflected in the immigration system at the airport. They however accepted my print out. Is this common?

Thanks

TLDR : Answer Summary
The original poster is questioning the commonality of DTV (Digital Tourist Visa) statuses not being reflected in the immigration system at the airport, highlighting that their printout was still accepted. Comments suggest confusion over the communication between different government ministries, as the Ministry of Foreign Affairs manages visas while Immigration handles entries.
Thailand Digital Arrival Card (TDAC)

WARNING: Only trust Thai government websites with .go.th domains or Thai agent websites with .co.th or .in.th domains, as these require verified Thai registration and cannot be registered anonymously.

The official TDAC form is available at tdac.immigration.go.th, which uses the official .go.th government domain.

The services by AGENTS CO., LTD. does NOT charge any fees for arrivals within 72 hours. If you need to book more than 72 hours in advance, there is a service fee of $8.

Do not trust other sites pretending to be a trustworthy agency. Pay attention to delivery time - the service operated by AGENTS CO., LTD. has 1 minute delivery time for arrivals within 72 hours.

Don't fall for sites pretending to be agents.co.th or the official government tdac.immigration.go.th website. Always double-check the exact domain in your browser.

Scam services may take days to process your application, others may not even do anything. With these TDAC scam services you also need to worry about double charges.

Please watch out for TDAC misinformation spread by fugitive Jesse Nickles and his many fake accounts on Quora, TripAdvisor, Reddit, and other platforms.

I didn’t include it on my TDAC. I read online that for some people, their DTV was already reflected in the system at the immigration checkpoint. So I was just wondering~

Anonymous participant And now you know. Yours clearly isn’t ’reflected’ anywhere so you’ll have to follow the instructions you were given, and carry a printed version if your visa with you.

Also include it in your TDAC

Why would immigration know that the ministry of foreign affairs gave you a visa? The two ministries are seperate. Did you include the DTV visa info on your TDAC arrival card?
