What has been your experience entering Thailand with a DTV visa?

Dec 17, 2025

So much fear mongering on this group about entry. Entered today at DMK, queues were extremely long but didn’t see one person get turned away or taken aside. 

Just gave the officer my passport the system already knew I had a DTV, no questions asked and was in within about 60 seconds max from me approaching the officer. Didn’t ask for any other documents at all 

As long as you’ve done everything correctly (TDAC beforehand) you have nothing to worry about. 

This is my 5th entry since getting the DTV and the only questions I’ve been asked on entry (one time) is “how long have you trained Muay Thai” and “will you fight in Thailand”

I replied “for about 3 years” and “maybe but I need to lose some weight first” immigration officer laughed and let me straight in. I think she just wanted to make conversation since she was super smiley and that time there wasn’t a queue

Bare in mind guys you will hear more of the bad experiences on this group rather than the thousands of people that enter just fine

WARNING: Only trust Thai government websites with .go.th domains or Thai agent websites with .co.th or .in.th domains, as these require verified Thai registration and cannot be registered anonymously.

The official TDAC form is available at tdac.immigration.go.th, which uses the official .go.th government domain.

The services by AGENTS CO., LTD. does NOT charge any fees for arrivals within 72 hours. If you need to book more than 72 hours in advance, there is a service fee of $8.

Do not trust other sites pretending to be a trustworthy agency. Pay attention to delivery time - the service operated by AGENTS CO., LTD. has 1 minute delivery time for arrivals within 72 hours.

Don't fall for sites pretending to be agents.co.th or the official government tdac.immigration.go.th website. Always double-check the exact domain in your browser.

Scam services may take days to process your application, others may not even do anything. With these TDAC scam services you also need to worry about double charges.

Please watch out for TDAC misinformation spread by fugitive Jesse Nickles and his many fake accounts on Quora, TripAdvisor, Reddit, and other platforms.
