ORIGINAL POSTER
Just an update on successful entering with DTV for the second time at Chiang Mai international.

I entered first time on DTV through Suvarnabhumi airport in January.

Left from CNX after a 5 month stay for a 2 week trip to China.

Arrived last night at CNX, while queuing an immigration officer raised her hand and said “DTV” toward the supervisor for another person entering on DTV. The supervising officer who was controlling the line just waved like it was ok.

When I went up to the immigration officer (not the same one that asked the supervisor) he only asked what I was doing in Thailand and I said “workcation, I work online and live in Thailand”. He smiled and handed back my passport with 180 day DTV stamp.

Additional info: Australian passport holder applied for DTV at Sydney consulate.
