Do we have any recent estimations on how common it is to be questioned at CNX airport on first entry with DTV Soft Power Muay Thai? What kind of questions? Do we know of anyone with a clean visa history in Thailand who got denied entry purely because of how they answered the immigration questions on first entry?

I'm not sure whether this is the appropriate site to ask the following question, I hope so. My 90 day Report is due soon, I just paid my rent, asked for a new TM30 for doing the Report, now the place where I stay tells me: "the system is down, we've been struggling since yesterday". Our company actually do it on our behalf, but we have to supply the correct documentation, etc, in order for them to make the TM47 application.

Has anyone experienced a similar problem lately, I really don't want to pay a B500 per day once it expires!

Any advice will be appreciated!

Has anyone been denied entry after their initial 180 day stay with an approved DTV visa because they had to show continued soft power activity (muay thai, cooking, etc)?

Hi guys. I got an e-mail from immigration that my 90 days report will soon be due. However, I just got back to Thailand a couple of weeks ago and I thought it all started over the day I returned. Should I ignore the e-mail and go there 90 days from my arrival ?

I have a retirement visa and rent a villa. My friend from the US was in a scooter accident in Vietnam and broke his leg. He just flew in to stay with me for a few weeks until he has better mobility. Do I need to take him to immigration to report he is temporarily living at my rental house, and what are the documents needed? Does the house owner need to be involved?

Hi, my first 90 report is due end September based on TM30 showing rented apartments in BKK.

I bought a villa in Hua Hin and should have the yellow book mid August.

I aim to wait until I have the yellow book then re apply the TM30 showing HH address for the 90 day report.

Am I missing anything for this simple move to make it easy at immigration

Got DTV visa

I have a question regarding the Thailand DTV (Destination Thailand Visa).

When I applied for my DTV visa, I submitted proof of remote work showing that I was employed by a specific company.

My question is: What happens if I change my employer during the validity of my DTV visa?

I’ve seen several posts where people mentioned that Thai immigration sometimes asks for updated proof of remote work during re-entry or when using the visa for the second or third time.

So, if I change my company but continue working remotely (with a new employer), will immigration expect me to still be employed by the same company I listed during the DTV application?

Or is it acceptable as long as I continue remote work and meet the financial requirements?

Would appreciate insights from anyone who has faced this situation

90 days report discoveries that cost me 4,000 baht and many wasted hours:

1. Even if you have yearly rental contract and the owner filled up TM.30 when you moved with expire date all the way to the next 12 months IF you get out of the country it’s not valid anymore. Every time you enter Thailand you need to do TM.30 address report again. Ignore that the existing TM.30 “check out date: 30.12.2025” - they don’t accept it and treat as non existent.

The punishment: 1600 baht and need to bring them copies of full rental contract + id of owner + house book.

(collecting rent documents is much bigger punishment).

2. You can do the 90 days report 14 days before the date and 7 days after. Each late day is 500 baht, maximum 2000 baht.

If you will come on the 8th day they treat it as you late 8 days and not 1 days late. Even if you have Documentation of ER stay due to a car accident on these weeks - won’t help. Punishment: 2000 baht, very long queue to pay it and airport officers asking extra questions due to fine stamp on the passport.

In short: every time you fly into Thailand, you need to ask for TM30 even if you’re on yearly contact and even if you left Thailand only for 24 hours. Don’t wait for last moment to do the 90 days report, you never know maybe a pickup truck will crash into you in the exact day you planned to do the report.

Yikes 😬

FYI, for Bangkok Immigration Division 1, your 90 DAY reporting is done at 3RD FLOOR now. 1 floor above Atrium level.

I was late submitting the 90-day report, overdue by just 7 days. Will I be fined?
