ORIGINAL POSTER
Hi everyone, so I have a quick question I’m coming in on my dtv visa for the first time. It got approved while I was on my visa exemption so I’m going back and coming back in on it. I wanted to ask though what do you show when you come in. I’m worried about the bank stuff I had enough when I applied but had to pay my security deposit for my rental and my sons Tution it will be built up again in a couple of months but I’m worried if they ask to see bank statements or not when you come in.

TLDR : Answer Summary
The user is entering Thailand for the first time on a DTV visa and inquires about the necessary documentation, particularly regarding bank statements. Responses indicate that presenting the passport and the printed visa is typically sufficient, with a note on potential additional requirements at certain airports.

You have an active DTV visa, the next time you enter Thailand use it and you will get a 180 day stamp

You should be fine. Just hand over your passport and printed pdf of your visa.

Some reports of Chiang Mai having a special form for first time entrances on DTV, so avoid that airport if you are worried.
