TLDR : Answer Summary
Upon arrival in Bangkok with your DTV visa, you should present the DTV visa proof to the Thai Immigration Officer. Ensure to print out the email confirming your DTV visa as you may need to show it to airline staff before check-in or at border crossings. After handing over your visa, check that your passport is stamped for the correct duration, typically 180 days.

Thank You for your helpful report πŸ‘

Congratulations πŸ‘πŸ‘πŸ‘

PRINT OUT THE EMAIL THAT HAS YOUR DTV VISA.

That's what you should do... print it out.

You may have to show PROOF of your DTV Visa to airline staff on check-in for your flight ✈️ to Thailand...even to the connecting airline staff. Or to the land border crossing entry Thai Immigration Officer.

Upon arrival into Thailand, show the DTV visa to the Thai Immigration Officer and look at the STAMP placed in your passport to be sure you are STAMPED in for 180 days.
