a day ago
I am a freelancer holding worcation DTV, currently staying in Chiang Mai. I am coming up to my first 180-day and have already bought a round-trip ticket (CNX- a city in Vietnam- CNX). I am staying in Vietnam for 3 days.

What issues should I expect at CNX immigration when I return? Thank you in advance.

TLDR : Answer Summary
A freelancer holding a DTV workcation visa should expect that Chiang Mai immigration will likely require the printed DTV visa upon re-entry from Vietnam. It's advisable to also have a copy of DTV application documents on hand in case officials request them. Previous experiences indicate minimal issues upon re-entry, but being prepared for potential questions is wise.

Went in and out for 2 times already and they just wanted to see the printed visa. You should still fit in the requirements though if they ask more questions.

Have with you, a copy of your DTV application documents which were approved as a DTV workcation, if asked.
