I got a DTV (Destination Thailand Visa) about two weeks ago and had planned to fly to Thailand next week. Unfortunately, it looks like I won’t be able to make the trip.
With a regular tourist visa, you usually have to enter the country within 3 months — but this one says “valid from May 10 until…” and I’m not sure what that means exactly in terms of deadlines.
Does anyone know if my visa will become invalid if I don’t enter Thailand within those 3 months? Would appreciate any insight. 🙏
TLDR : Answer Summary
The user is uncertain about the validity period of their Destination Thailand Visa (DTV), which is valid from May 10, pending travel plans that have changed. Community responses clarify that the visa remains valid for up to five years from the date of issue, but entry must occur before the visa's expiration date. It is noted that the DTV operates similarly to a regular tourist visa, requiring entry between the issued date and the validity end date.
