Smooth DTV Re-entry

I just came back to Chiang Mai today from Malaysia, for my new 180 days DTV stamp. 

I applied for DTV with Freelance Workcation Option. Went through immigration today with printed copies of DTV Visa, TDAC and Proof of Address. 

The officer didn't ask any further questions after I showed my documents. 

Just wanted to share my experience for re-entry. 

Good luck and good day, everyone!

I'm not sure if it's even required. Mine were just normal A4 paper copies.
