What are the transit visa requirements for traveling from DMK to BKK in Thailand?
Hello some one please guide me my flight is landed on DMK Thailand AIRPORT AFTER 8 HOURS I HAVe to catch next flight for Pakistan from bkk Suvarnabhumi airport, so how I get a transit visa or from where?
Answer summary
If you are arriving at DMK Airport in Thailand and need to transfer to BKK Airport for your flight to Pakistan, you will require a transit visa due to the need to clear immigration between the two airports. As a Pakistani passport holder, you must apply for the transit visa online via the e-visa website before your departure. Additionally, there is a free shuttle bus service available between DMK and BKK that takes about an hour. It's crucial to ensure the visa is processed in advance, as you cannot obtain a visa on arrival or enter Thailand without one.

So you will need to apply for a Thai visa in advance. While the entire process is online, your application will be routed to the Thai embassy in the country where you currently are. The processing time varies by embassy from 3-5ish business days up to 15ish business days.

Free shuttle bus from DMK to BKK at gate 3, floor 1 terminal 1.
Next to the lift to get to amari hotel.
The bus takes around 1 hour to get to bkk.

@Matt *****
he first needs to enter Thailand, and he can't without a visa due to his passportMatt ******
I was guessing he was taking an internal flight within Thailand to DMK and then his international flight from Bkk so just explained an easy option from A to B.

Matt Gray but she isn’t asking about how to get from point A to point B, but instead asking about visa requirements since she has to travel from Point A to Point B. Therefore, it is a better assumption to think she is flying into DMK from one of the near-by countries, on a budget flight, and then switching airports for the longer flight to Pakistan

I think he’s already in Thailand and he’s departing from whatever city probably Phuket going to DMK and then his flight from Bangkok to Pakistan so I think he’s already in Thailand if that’s the way I’m reading it

@Wayne *******
so why is he asking about a visa to get between airports?John *******
@Wayne *******
if he is already in Thailand, I don’t think he would be asking about what visa he needs for an 8 hour gap between his two flights.Wayne ********
@John *********
that’s what I was thinking.John **********
@Wayne *******
if that's correct then he has no problem. Just exit DMK and jump on the shuttle bus

Thats what you get for buying non conected flights.
May be cheaper but you now have a major headache trying to get a transit type visa

As others said you need to get a visa to enter Thailand to transit. You will need to do TDAC as your going from one airport to the other

If you are travelling on a Pakistani passport you will need to apply for a transit visa on the evisa website and receive it before travelling. Without a visa you won't be able to enter Thailand as you are not entitled to a visa exempt entry and can't purchase a visa on arrival (VOA) either.

You need to clear immigration because you're arriving at one airport and departing from the other so you must meet tourist visa, visa exempt, or VOA (VISA ON ARRIVAL) requirements. What passport do you hold?
