ORIGINAL POSTERHi, I have questions, what does it look like after 6 months? You pay once again and show your employment documents?
TLDR : Answer Summary
After 6 months on the Digital Nomad Visa (DTV) in Thailand, holders do not have to pay another fee to extend their stay if they exit the country and re-enter; they will receive another 180 days. If extending while in Thailand, a fee of around 1,900 THB is expected, along with possibly needing to provide documentation like proof of funds and ongoing qualifications (e.g., continuing a course if that was the basis for the visa). However, many users suggest leaving the country and returning instead of going through the extension process, as specific requirements for the extension are yet to be confirmed.
DTV VISA RESOURCES / SERVICES

Do you need to book a flight and accommodation to Thailand before applying for the DTV visa?

If I recall that Canadian YouTuber interviewed a immigration official about this, I think he said if you extend, you may have to show documents like portfolio

To extend in Thailand, every other visa I know about requires you to meet most of the same requirements as when you got it initially. If that's the case with the DTV, you'll need to show 500k in a bank, proof that you're still in a Muay Thai course or whatever basis you got in on. But we don't know yet.
As someone else said, you can probably just hop out of the country and come back in instead of extending in country.
Extensions for other visas are usually 1900 baht. We don't know that yet about the DTV either.

Probably just 1900 for 180 day extension. However, all speculation at this point.

no! it is valid for 5 years you do not need to show it probably just need to submit tm30 and 1900 baht

No. The 10k THB fee is for 5 years of the DTV with an entey of 180 days per entry. If you extend in country there will be a fee. If you leave the country and re-enter there will be no fee and you will get another 180 day.

Read past post, already been asked several time.
If you get out and back in nothing happens, it's a multiple entry visa, you don't pay.
If you extend in theory you pay 1.900 Baht and you may need to submit documentation for your extension, but I didn't see anybody report an extension yet, there are just rumours, safest thing is fly out and come back.

Unknown at this time.
Avoid the Thai Immigration office extension by doing a simple LAND BORDER BOUNCE and get a NEW 180 day STAMP in your passport as DTV Visa holder.

Does a Digital Nomad Visa holder in Thailand get a new 180-day period after leaving and re-entering?
