What is the process for obtaining a DTV card in Thailand?
How do I get the physical DTV card?
I already have my printed DTV and arrived in Thailand 4 days ago.
How to get the card and immigration to do so would be of great help 👍🏽

Answer summary
The inquiry refers to a misunderstanding about the DTV (Digital Thai Visa). There is no physical "DTV card"; the DTV is solely represented by a PDF visa received via email from the embassy. This PDF must be printed and kept on hand for the duration of your visa validity, typically five years, to present during entries into Thailand. Some users suggest laminating the printed document for durability, as there is no official card similar to membership programs.

Ok, thank you. 👍🏽Jeremy ********
If you can get a housemaster to add you to the tambien bahn (ทะเบียนบ้าน) you can use your DTV to get a yellow house book and the pink Thai ID card via the amphur office ….good luck

The digital Thai visa is not a visa credit card.

I know it’s not a visa credit card. What would a visa have to do with credit? 🤣

There are a few people that reduced the PDF down in size then laminated it, and it was accepted, but I know of only two people that did this.

No such thing as a DTV card. Who or what gave you the impression it came with a card?

What makes you think there is a DTV card?? You just print the pdf visa, that the embassy sent you in an email, and present that with your passport when entering Thailand.

The pdf is the visa.. there is no card for dtv.

You might me confused with the Thailand privilege card 😊

There's no such thing as a "DTV card". It's not a membership program. It's a visa. And the pdf you received from the embassy is your visa. You need to print it and keep it with you for 5 years, and show it each time you enter Thailand.
