TLDR : Answer Summary
As a DTV holder in Thailand, you are required to report to immigration every 90 days. This can be done either online or in person, although the first report is typically done in person. The 90-day countdown begins the day you enter Thailand. The DTV visa is a multi-entry visa, which means you receive another 180 days of stay upon re-entering Thailand. Additionally, if you wish to extend your stay beyond the initial period, you can apply for a 180-day extension at your immigration office. However, requirements for extensions may vary by office, so it's advisable to check with your specific immigration office for their requirements.

As a DTV holder, you are required to do the 90-days report. You can do it online or in person at your Immigration office.

The DTV is a multi-entry visa type, which means that every time you exit Thailand, you will get another 180 days of stay permit upon re-entering Thailand

You can get a 180-days extension on Immigration, however what Immigration will require, can depend on which Immigration office out of the 85 offices in Thailand you are using.

Some, like Immigration Hua Hin, require that you must hold 500.000 THB on a Thai bank account in your sole name, on the day you apply for the extension.

So if you plan to apply for an extension instead of simply doing a border run, that will get you stamped in for another 180 days and no questions asked, you should ask your Immigration what they require

You have to report every 90 days which is the same for all aliens. You can try and do it online but usually the first one is done in person. You just need your passport. The 90 day countdown starts the day you enter

not all I don’t need to do 90 day reporting

@Jo *********
yes you do!

@Ian *********
no I have the LTR only one year reporting. And since I fly out every two months I will never report. Get the facts

@Jo *********
The one year reporting is different to the alien 90 day reporting. There was much confusion with this but all visa holders must submit a 90 day report according to the 1979 immigration act. Those are the facts
