What should I do if I lost my Thai visa sticker before immigration check?
During my last trip, I crossed the land border into Cambodia and received the standard full-page visa sticker; that sticker peeled off and I lost it, though traces of the text remain on the page, showing it was once there. Should I point this out during an immigration check to avoid issues, or is it not a problem either way? Thanks.
Answer summary
The user lost their Thai visa sticker after crossing into Cambodia and is concerned about potential issues during immigration checks. Comments suggest that showing the remnants of the visa and having supporting documents may help, but experiences shared indicate that it is likely not a problem if the visa is valid. It's advised to carry supporting documents related to the visa when traveling.

Why would your DTV expire before it's five years validity period? Are you trying to raise doubts and cause concern for others?

Just made the entry me and my wife. I just gave my passport and officer just stamped and took biometrics and pictrue and done. No questions asked

Stamp clearly says DTV... I gave visa and passport, officer returned the paper without looking at it. Entry is for 6 months

Anonymous participant did you give them your visa, if not you have been given the wrong stamp. I.e visa on arrival (visa exception)

Thank you so much for all responses. I am at airport. Will reach Thailand in next 10 hrs. I will keep all posted with my experience

Anonymous participant so how did you get on? I wouldn’t have expected any problem, as there is no time limit for first entry (I’ve confirmed this with my local embassy). Unless as someone else mentioned softpower applications which they may question but I still think you’d be ok with good justification. 🙏🏼

ia : Le décompte des 5 ansPuisque vous arrivez après un an, il vous restera 4 ans de validité sur votre visa. Vous pourrez continuer à faire autant d'entrées et de sorties que vous le souhaitez jusqu'à la date d'expiration finale de votre DTV.

For what purpose did you obtain the DTV visa?
Workcation or Soft Power Activity?

It just is valid, you only might be asked why you did not come before.
And in case of softpower it is a bit weird.

You must activate visa within 6 months. Then it’s valid for up to 5 years.

incorrect, I’ve confirmed with my local embassy no entry time limit as long as within the validity dates of the DTV visa.
