Will I face any issues taking domestic flights in Thailand with a DTV visa?
If I have a DTV with soft power in Bangkok, then travel to Thailand and take several flights within the country, will there be any problems? All I know is that in Samui, for example, I'll get an entry stamp. This will obviously be in my passport.
Answer summary
Traveling within Thailand using domestic flights while holding a DTV visa generally does not pose any issues. Comments clarify that domestic flights do not require additional entry stamps, as the initial entry stamp is only provided when entering the country itself. As long as you arrive in Thailand with your visa, there should be no complications traveling between domestic airports.

Samui or Bangkok or Chiang Mai or Phuket or Udon Thani or pattaya in Thailand is the same (Domestic). You don't worry about entry stamp. It is Domestic flight not international flight. If you go to international flight connect with visa with entry stamp but domestic flight connected about your face in the passport only.

Nope as a tourist they expect that you will be travelling around the country.

What kind of problems do you imagine you will have taking domestic flights? Thailand is a free country. No one examines your visa or asks you why you're travelling inside the country. You don't get entry stamps when you go to different parts of the country. The entry referred to on an entry stamp is entry to the country itself, not different airports inside the country when travelling domestically.

I didn't know it either, or from any other country. However, I did get my own stamp in Samui last year. I entered and exited the country via Bangkok, though.Biff *******
Anonymous participant you officially entered the country in Samui as that’s where you went through immigration.

Anonymous participant You get one stamp from the first immigration officer you see. If your flight is to Bangkok, you get it there. If you transit in Bangkok on one ticket and stay in the transit area in that airport then transfer to Samui you get it there like you did before. After that you’re in the country and travelling domestically is the same as it is everywhere else. You don’t see immigration. No one checks your visa. You’re free to travel around. It’s not North Korea.

You will be receiving your entry stamp from Bangkok. The only way you could receive a Samui stamp is if your flight was arriving directly into Samui from Singapore or one of the few other cities which have international flights to Samui.

nope. I came via Bangkok. Different flight, different airline.Paul *******
Well that's why I'm saying you can't get a Samui stamp.

Samui will not give you an entry stamp unless you are flying in from another country

It’s very very strange they would stamp you out domestically . Doesn’t make any sense .
