Looking for some advice. I plan to apply for a DTV from the UK, as I plan to go to Thailand in late September 2025.

Timing wise, from when should I be applying for a DTV?

Assuming the DTV is approved, is it correct that I need to go to Thailand within 90 days of the approval?

Thanks in advance.

TLDR : Answer Summary
A user is seeking advice on the application timing for a DTV visa from the UK for travel to Thailand in late September 2025. They wonder when to apply and if there are any requirements about entering Thailand within 90 days of visa approval. Comments suggest applying about two months before travel and clarify that there is no strict 90-day requirement but recommend not applying more than 90 days before the intended travel date.

Apply 2 months before, there is no 90-day rule but usually they will not grant it to you if you apply more than 90 days before you intend to travel
