ORIGINAL POSTERTLDR : Answer Summary
Many users suggest that applying for a DTV extension in Thailand can be challenging, with some experiencing difficulties at immigration. It's common for people to recommend cross-border exits instead, as it may be faster and less troublesome, allowing for a new 180-day entry. Users also advise that immigration officials often prefer not to issue extensions for DTVs, especially if the visa was issued in Southeast Asia.
