Is it possible to apply for a Thai DTV with a 'No Live Trace' on ACRO, and has anyone experienced issues with that?
Has anyone had “NO LIVE TRACE” on ACRO And applied for the DTV yet ? And had any pushback or request for further info
Answer summary
The discussion centers around applying for a Thai DTV (Digital Nomad Visa) while holding a 'No Live Trace' ACRO certificate, which indicates an existing criminal record but concealed details. Participants share their experiences, noting that while some embassies may request underlying information related to a 'No Live Trace' status, one individual reported no issues with their application. It is suggested to contact ACRO for details if needed, and the visa application experience may vary based on the Thai consulate.

NO LIVE TRACE = there is a criminal record (conviction, caution, etc.) on police systems, but it has been “stepped down” under ACRO’s rules. The details are therefore not shown on the certificate.
Many embassies (Spain, US, etc.) treat “No Live Trace” as a flag and sometimes ask for the underlying stepped-down details (ACRO can provide a second page with the offences for personal use). Whether Thai DTV processing does the same is anyone’s guess
If you have a “No Live Trace” certificate, you can contact ACRO for the stepped-down details in case a mission requests them. Requirements can vary by Thai mission and are subject to change.
Well pay the $350 and see how it goes
Should have been a better person in your past
Good luck

OPDTV_Begpacker “Should have been a better person in your past” – what an incredibly judgemental thing to say to someone you know absolutely nothing about.
People make mistakes, learn from them and move on with their lives. Something that happened many years ago doesn't define the person someone is today.
And for the record, I'd be willing to bet I'm still a better person than you, because I certainly wouldn't sit behind a keyboard judging a complete stranger over their past.
Having a clean record doesn't automatically make someone a decent human being. Your attitude speaks volumes about the kind of person you are. 😘

Thai_wonder_55 typical criminal answer
Deflect the blame to show how good of a person they have became after being a menace to society
Always everyone’s fault but theirs
The past shouldn’t judge me, just the present should judge me so don’t judge me on it
Blah blah blah
You were a bad person in your past, you were caught, you have an audit trail on a govt blotter system
Deal with it…you can’t go back in time to fix it so now you must live with the consequences of your youth
Not my problem I have a clean record with no Audit trail so I don’t have to ever deal with this on my record
That’s facts
Good luck maybe you’ll invent a Time Machine

OPDTV_Begpacker Congratulations on your clean police record. Would you like a round of applause? 👏😂
The difference between you and me is that I don’t feel the need to judge complete strangers to make myself feel superior.
Yes, I have a past, and I’ve never denied it. But I’ve also spent years building a successful business, working hard and getting on with my life.
You seem to think having a clean record makes you some sort of superior human being. Unfortunately, your attitude suggests otherwise.
And just to clarify, I don’t have to prove a single thing to you. You’re a random person on Facebook, not the Thai Embassy.
Perhaps spend less time worrying about my past and a little more time working on your own personality. 😘
Beg - packer 😅
