Just a heads up, IF you try to make a post and it is declined READ the notes in the declination as many times I tell people to check their messages in Messenger and have messaged them either the answer they were seeking OR asked a question so they could re-write their post and it could get on the group..
It's not that I don't want you people to post your questions, I want you people to get good, accurate answers to what you're asking. Sadly sometimes posts are just not clear enough and I don't want the thread to turn into a slow motion train wreck of bad/mis- information :(
It's nothing personal when a thread is declined and if I can help either get it so it can be allowed on the group or give you the answer I usually message people
One thing to remember you can't mention agents/agencies, solicitors/lawyers on the group, not even in passing. The group has a zero tolerance for it and your post isn't gonna get on.
If you are referring to the immigration OFFICER at an office who told you something don't say "the agent told me" as that will get flagged and not get on :)
Best of luck in your entry/visa/extension endeavors here in the glorious "Land 'O Thaiz" (y)
Hi everyone, just wanted to say thanks to all of you in this group for the wealth of information and great sense of community 🙏🏼🙏🏼 It helped me during my process immensely!
Got into Thailand today on a soft power (Muay Thai) DTV that I applied for myself through Ho Chi Minh City.
Would love to pay it forward and help out anyone else in a similar situation who might have questions about the process 😁
Hi, I'm a bit confused about my experience with the DTV visa in Thailand. I've entered Bangkok three times already, and the first time was smooth with no issues. However, the next two times, I encountered some questioning at immigration.
After my first entry in February, I traveled to Singapore in April and stayed for three weeks. When I returned to Bangkok, a female officer asked about my purpose for visiting Thailand. I explained that I'm taking cooking classes and showed her some photos. She also asked about my return flight to my home country.
When I returned from Singapore again in May, I encountered another female officer who asked why I applied for the DTV visa in Hanoi. I explained that it's for cooking classes and mentioned that I have a sister here. She asked for my return flight ticket, which I showed her, and then stamped my passport.
I'm wondering why I'm being questioned despite having a DTV visa. Should I mention my one-year condo lease in Bangkok during future entries? For context, I'm not working, and I visit Singapore regularly because my partner works there. Since we're not married, I opted for the DTV visa as it's more convenient for me to stay in Thailand than fly back to my home country, which is a four-hour flight. TIA.🙏
