Hey guys I’ve started the only application on the official Thai E-Visa for the DTV freelance visa. It’s asking for milk “INTENDED DATE OF ARRIVAL” and “MY INTENDED DATE OF DEPARTURE” issue with attended date of arrival is I’m applying from Spain n from the search ppl have had a 1 approval reply after their application and others it’s taken up to 5”6 weeks,

So I don’t know what to say re my date of arrival and Flight number ……

Secondly “INTENDED DATE OF DEPARTURE” the visa is 5 years do I say 5 years for my departure date? 🙏 what did you all do for this part?
Answer summary
When applying for the Thai DTV freelance visa, it's recommended to enter an intended date of arrival within 180 days of your application date, regardless of the lengthy processing times reported by others. For the intended date of departure, you should not select a date five years out, as the visa is not a continuous stay permit. Instead, choose a departure date that reflects a realistic timeframe for your stay, keeping in mind that the visa allows for multiple entries within its validity period.

You cannot stay continually for 5 years. Put a date within 180 days. Nobody will be monitoring your application input dates once visa is issued.
