ORIGINAL POSTER

Hey guys! My agency wants me to go to Cambodian border get an arrival visa so they can apply for my DTV should I stay in Cambodia ? They told me once I get the visa I can come back to Thailand the same day and just wait for my DTV and go out to activate it. Currently I’m in ED for my second year in a row. What would you recommend? Thanks

If your are on a ED extension I don’t think you can cancel that ,someone just posted that they were denied and had to wait for the extension to end

Apply outside Thailand. Once you got the DTV, you can enter.
