Hi everyone, I need some advice about the Thai visa.

I applied for a visa back in August ( in Paris ) but my trip is only from December 13 (I already included my flight ticket and hotel bookings for those dates in my application).

Since the application was made more than 3 months before my trip, I’m worried that if the visa is approved, it will start from the date of approval and may not cover my travel period in December.

Has anyone experienced this situation? Do they issue the visa starting from the approval date, or do they take into account the travel dates shown in the application?

Thanks a lot for your help!

Hi All , so I’m going to Thailand in late October, I recently applied here from the uk to the E Thai visa website for a 90 visa which I have received but my concerns are its valid from August and runs out 2nd of November?

Is that going to be ok for me

Are theses visas the type that as long as you go within in the validity of the visa I will get 90 days from day I land in Thailand

Or is that the Thai e visa embassy have put the wrong dates on , I recall when applying I put I was traveling in October

Any help please will be much appreciated

Thanks

Does a type O retirement visa start from date granted )if not in Thailand as it has to be applied for from home.)

Or start from when you land please? TIA 🙏

Hey everyone 👋

I’m filling out my DTV visa application and it asks for an arrival date. I haven’t booked my flights yet, so I’m wondering:

• If I put a certain arrival date on my application, can I still enter Thailand earlier or later than that?

• How much flexibility do I actually have as long as I arrive within the visa’s validity period?

I’ve received my Thia E-VISA yesterday 13/08/25 i assumed it would start from the day I landed in Bangkok 18/09/25 not from yesterdays date . Have i assumed wrongly.

Hi , I have a Thai evisa that states valid for the 9 June till the 6 September 2025.

I arrived in Thailand on the 3 July. Does my 90 day non O marriage visa start on the 9 June or when I arrived in Thailand on the 3 July.

Thankyou.

Hii everyone,

For the Soft Power DTV visa, you need to leave the country every 6 months, and then you can return and stay for another 6 months. But if I no longer have a membership to train MMA after the first 6 months, my DTV visa will no longer be valid, right? Even though the visa itself is valid for 5 years.

Does anyone know how this works?

Coordinating Document Validity with travel dates.

Apologies if this is answered somewhere here. I did search but did not find. As a US citizen, the OA application wants:

A health certification stating no prohibiting disease on an official form not greater than 90 days.

A clean criminal history record not greater than 90 days.

Are these associated with your date of travel, or your issue date?

Say I have both documents generated today, and I apply for the OA visa a month from now. and am approved in 15 days. Do i need to travel before those documents expire, or do I have a set expiration based on issue date? "Must travel within XX days"?

Asking because I had my last Dr appointment with My PMD today, and he was nice enough to complete the health form, but now I am not sure if it will work for a travel date in early December.

Hi all — I want to apply for the DTV now, but I won’t be able to enter Thailand for 6–8 months. Has anyone either:

1. applied with a flight dated soon, but entered much later?

2. applied with a flight dated 6–8 months ahead?

Any issues with approval or at immigration when you eventually entered? Thanks!
