Is it worth paying for a VIP arrival to avoid hassle with the DTV in Thailand?
Seeing a lot of fear mongering about DTV lately. I spoke to Visa agency. They said nothing has changed specifically with DTV but to guarantee avoid hassle you can do a VIP arrival for 5000 Baht. Do you think it’s worth the stress free arrival and peace of mind?
Answer summary
There are recent concerns regarding the DTV visa, leading to discussions about the reliability of arriving in Thailand using a VIP service for a fee of 5000 Baht. A conversation highlights the importance of filing a 90-day report if staying in Thailand for that duration, with mentions of fines for non-compliance. Some users, particularly those on a NON-O visa, discuss their experiences with visa renewal and immigration services, emphasizing that problems seem to arise primarily when interacting with Thai immigration offices.
