What is the process for extending a Destination Thailand Visa (DTV) after 180 days?

I’m sure you just pay 1900tb at immigration for the first extension. I could be wrong it’s Thailand things can change quickly

The Destination Thailand Visa (DTV) is a multi-entry visa introduced to support long-term stays for digital nomads, remote workers, freelancers, and participants in cultural or educational activities in Thailand. Here’s an overview of the requirements and application process:

Key Features

1. Duration: Up to 180 days per entry, with a total validity of five years. Extensions of 180 days are possible for each entry.

2. Eligibility:

• Remote workers or freelancers employed by foreign companies.

• Participants in cultural, educational, or medical activities under Thailand’s “Soft Power” initiative.

• Dependents (spouses and children under 20) of primary DTV holders.

Requirements

1. General:

• Age: At least 20 years old.

• Financial proof: Bank statements or evidence of assets worth at least 500,000 THB (~$14,000).

• Passport with at least six months of validity.

• Recent passport-sized photo.

• Proof of residence (e.g., utility bill, lease agreement).

2. Purpose-Specific Documents:

• Remote workers: Employment contracts, proof of freelancing activities, or tax records.

• Cultural/educational participants: Proof of enrollment in a Thai program (e.g., cooking classes or Muay Thai training).

• Medical purposes: Treatment confirmation documents from a Thai hospital.

• Dependents: Marriage or birth certificates.

Application Process

1. Method: Apply online through the Thai e-Visa platform or at a Thai Embassy/Consulate in your home country.

2. Steps:

• Prepare required documents.

• Submit application and pay the fee (ranging from $250 to $500, depending on the embassy and currency).

• Await approval (usually 2–3 weeks).

• Upon approval, print the visa to present at immigration.

3. Fee: Varies by country but starts at 9,415 THB (approximately $250).

Notes

• The visa does not allow work for Thai companies without a separate work permit.

• Staying over 180 days per calendar year may subject holders to Thai tax laws on global income.

• Applications must be submitted outside Thailand.

To avoid hassle, get out and back in. Take the train from Bangkok to Vientienne and back.

I will ask jomtien immigration on friday when i go for the 90d report

Everyday mate.

Nope. No information available as yet.

The real question is has any immigration office published its requirements and pricing for an in country extension of a DTV entry.

Obviously not as the DTV Visa is not 180 days old yet.
