It's official. The DTV worked.

The immigration officer was smiling and giggling when he saw my DTV.

He said they are rare to see.

He said enjoy the 180 days 😁

Thanks for everyone's help in this group. I'm a happy DTV'er!

6 months plus 6 month extension. Can you do this for 5 years straight or how does it work?

Good Morning All,

Please can i get some advice on the following-

I am UK citizen currently in Thailand on a tourist visa and plan to spend some further time here later in the year also, in addition I spent some time here either side of Christmas and New Year 23/24.

I am mindful of keeping my time below 6 months (180 days) in any one year, however I cannot seem to find a clear definition of how that year is measured? I.e. is it rolling aggregate across the last 12 months, or calendar year, or calculated from your most recent visit etc.?

Hope this makes sense and thanks in advance for your answers.
