Got my DTV last year, did my first run in Nov without any issues.  Have to do my second in May.  Thinking to go to KL for a few days, and then fly back to either Hat Yai or Krabi. Which do you suppose is easier to pass through from a DTV standpoint?

Answer summary

The user wants advice on whether it's easier to enter Thailand again through Hat Yai or Krabi after a short trip to Kuala Lumpur, considering they hold a DTV visa and have done a previous border run successfully.

IF you applied for the correct purpose and used genuine documents, WHY YOU WORRY?

It is amazing, they all can work with every purpose but nobody can apply for extensions and all are afraid to do a border run.
