Hi! Last December I arrived to Thailand and left for a 3 week long trip to Cambodia before exceeding the 60 days, around the early days of February. I came back to Bangkok at the end of February. Stayed until the end of April, then returned to Hungary, my home country.
I travelled back to Thailand at the end of September (so I spent 5 months outside of the country) and will fly to Vietnam this weekend. I have never exceeded the 60 days before leaving and never had a visa extension. I plan returning to Thailand in the middle of December. Should I worry about getting rejected and start thinking about applying for a visa instead of getting the usual stamp at arrival?
Entered at CNX today with no questions (pre-filled TDAC, laminated DTV). Funny story though: I put the date of a flight out that I picked randomly in March (using an onward air service) because I always worry about being rejected for not having an onward ticket. They stamped my passport for DTV, but put the exit date as the date in March. I was planning to take a trip out sooner than 6 months anyway but be warned!
How to contact Phnom Penh? I submitted and paid on 30oct2025, additional documents on 7nov. Since then, Pending Approval. I emailed them 5 days ago, no reply. I called several times, ringing, then hangs up. I can stay in Cambodia until 27nov and now getting concerned if I get the visa in time.
With current tightening of visa rules, I might get problems to enter Thailand on another visa exempt. What do IOs think about people who enter Thailand while their visa is processing? Fortunately I'm flexible in space and time, can extend my stay in Cambodia or go to Lao and wait until I get the visa. But I don't like the idea of traveling around without an idea if and when I get my DTV.
Hi everyone! I first entered Thailand on August 31st on my DTV visa, and I’ll be leaving on December 1st after using the full 90 days. I plan to come back again in January on the same DTV visa (for my Soft Power Muay Thai training).
With all the recent rule changes at Thai immigration, I wanted to clarify something:
👉 If I re-enter after 1 month, will I have to show accommodation proof, training proof, or any new documents again?
👉 Or will immigration stop or question me because I’m entering again on the same visa type within a short gap?
👉 Has anyone recently re-entered on the DTV after a short exit?
Any updated experiences or advice would be really appreciated — thank you! 🙏🇹🇭
I paid for 90 days non visa o , and got stamp at airport for 89 days , which has messed up my flight back home ,according to them I overstay one-day, does this not look good for thai immigration and future visas. I told embassy date I go home when I get the non O and also put it on TDAC , don't they read things before they do stamp in passport ?
I have another 4.5 months on my existing Non O extension, however I will be applying for a DTV in the UK next month as it’s the only time I will be in the UK before my extension lapses.
Does my DTV automatically activate upon my next entry into Thailand or could I just hold off switching to DTV until April 26 after successfully receiving approval for a DTV in Dec 25
Has anyone visited Thailand twice this year using visa exemption and the again since 17 Nov? Each visit being less than 30 days with no extension and returning back to home country.
How many days of 2025 will you have spent in Thailand by the end of the year?
Even though the visa grants a 180-day stay with each entry, is there a kind of unofficial upper limit on the number of days spent in the country that makes de facto resident status interpretable?
My visa was approved as a remote worker. I work for my long-standing EU employer in my rented flat in Thailand with two screens, a LAN connection and a fixed desk. Leaving the country regularly is not realistic.
By the end of the year, I will have spent about 315 days in this country. Next year, I plan to return to my home country for 1-3 months, in addition to a shorter stay in a neighbouring country.
