I am Vietnamese and want to apply DTV visa, but I heard that if you are Vietnamese or Asian, you will be difficult to entrance Thailand without the flight back even you got a DTV.

Does some has the same issue? Please share! Thanks

I have not heard any issues with applicants entering Thailand and requiring to show a return flight. Like some others have mentioned, other factors play a part, i.e. the frequency of your travels to Thailand and the duration.

That being said, the immigration may apply more scrutiny to Chinese passport holders recently due to the recent scam cases and grey businesses.

Like another commenter above has mentioned, you can play it safe and have a return ticket prepared if you're concerned.

Not necessary as you can stay up to 180 days, no one can plan when they might want to leave during that period. Put any flight No and date close to 180 days if you so wish, same on TDAC

It's about how you prepare all documents well. Not about you are asian. It's not difficult 👌🏼

Get a return ticket too then, it’s not like they are forcing you to get a ticket from Vancouver to Bangkok and back, it’s 100 dollars at most
