Positive BKK arrival - just so everyone knows, other than a horrendously long queue, i entered on the workation DTV for the 1st time just now. Passport, TDAC, Visa and boarding pass were all that was requested. The immigration officer was more interested in tiktok on his phone, than me. So, very smooth process taking less than 30 seconds.

OP
Haha, well by the way the officer was more interested in his phone, I could have given him a DTAC sim card and he wouldn't have noticed haha (post now edited).
