I've heard it's getting pretty tough to get a DTV visa these days. The embassies seem a lot stricter than they used to be, and several people I know have gotten rejected. Have you heard the same thing?🤔
Answer summary
There are mixed opinions about the current difficulty of obtaining a DTV (Digital Nomad Visa) for Thailand. Some users suggest that embassies are becoming stricter with approvals, while others argue that the process remains relatively straightforward. The requirement to show proof of funds (500k baht) may be less important upon entry, but it's advised to have cash available. Many participants encourage printing the DTV visa approval email to present at immigration, as digital copies are not always accepted. Overall, experiences with entry requirements seem to vary among expats.
