TLDR : Answer Summary

The immigration situation for entering Thailand from Cambodia with a DTV visa can be challenging. A commenter shared their experience of being questioned upon arrival due to frequent travels from Cambodia, which raised red flags. They were almost denied entry but eventually allowed in after their Thai partner intervened. It is suggested to have cash available (20,000 THB or equivalent) and to check the TDAC website for additional guidelines.

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.

As John said, without a Thai girlfriend who does the speaking for you, no chance to enter Thailand.

LOL, some people need lots of attention but that might be because in real life the Girlfriends does all the talking.

Make sure you got the TDAC tdac.immigration.go.th and 20.000 Thb or equivalent in cash.

Never said that this is a must for all people, just said it was central in my case. Furthermore, did I ever say I have a Thai girlfriend?

I flew in on Friday from Phnom Penh with my DTV and had a difficult time, They were focused on the fact that I was coming from Cambodia and that I had spent a lot of time there. I was about to be sent to interrogation when they realized the next person in line was my partner (Thai) and then was allowed to step up and speak. IO told my partner there would have been a good chance I would have been denied entry as he saw the number of days and trips to Cambodia as a red flag

For me, I have only twice so far. I entered Cambodia on a TR visa and did extension one month. In that case, it likely be okay to enter?

Anonymous participant Honestly, I have no idea. I have entered Thailand on DTV multiple times, like many others and up until now, never had an issue. This issue had nothing to do win the visa and everything to do with them not liking farang having spent time in Cambodia, like somehow we are supporting their enemy. I was basically told not to go back to Cambodia and that I wouldn’t have a problem entering if I was coming from somewhere else next time (have work trips to Philippines and Indonesia in Feb).

Anonymous participant 270 - IO got agitated as soon as he saw my ticket showed I came from Phnom Penh, before he opened up my passport. Not sure he could see a true travel pattern in that short of time, as I have stamps for Korea, Japan, Vietnam, Singapore, Indonesia, Tajikistan, Kazakhstan, Kryg Republic, Sri Lanka, Nepal, Maldives and Italy all in the last 2.5 years. Only thing you could really see is business visa stickers for Cambodia

Then the comment from

@John ******

is more important to note, but I guess you already saw this by now.

Thai are very nationalistic, when I hear my girlfriend about Cambodia that is shocking to me, and she is from southern Thailand, far away from Cambodia.
