Hey everyone—quick question about the DTV under the soft power category:
If you’re enrolled in a course (like Muay Thai, cooking etc.), what happens when that course ends? Do you need to immediately enroll in another one to stay compliant? And if you leave Thailand after your course ends, do you need to already be enrolled in a new course before re-entering?
Trying to understand how strict immigration is about continuous enrollment and whether there’s any grace period. Appreciate any real experiences or up-to-date info—thanks!
I need to do the fist 90 day report after DTV obtention. I have the limit date on March 26, but this caught me traveling around Thailand. I read in several places that there’s a 7 day grace period after the date without any fine. Is that true?
On the 26th I will be in Bangkok and I reside in Chiang Mai. Can I do it in Bkk or do I need to do it in CM? I can ask for my TM30 at my hotel.
In December 2025, I've got my NON-B E-visa approved in Vientiane, Laos and I got 90days, unfortunately my employee decided not to employ me, when I asked him how do I cancel the visa, he said I dont need to because it wasn't issued by the immigration in thailand it was issued by an embassy.
My question is can I go immigration and cancel and recieve the 7days grace?
Hi All, I am planning a trip out of Thailand 5 days after the due date for my 90 day report, but within the 7 day grace period for reporting. Just wondering if I still have to complete the 90 day report in this case? Ideally, I don't want to spend a day waiting to get the 90 day report completed if it's not necessary.
90 day reports with a DTV. I want to share my experience so that others may learn from it.
1. You must do your 90 day report in the province that your TM-30 address is located.
2. You have to do your report in person if you hold a DTV. There are no options for online filing, unless you have done the 6 month extension in country without leaving to reset the visa. I will explain this more below.
I recently needed to do my 2nd 90 day report while holding a DTV in Thailand. I read that after the first report in person you may submit the following reports online. This is true, however the count of reports submitted resets after every new arrival in the country. As a DTV holder, I leave every 6 months for a period of time so I will never have a 2nd 90 day report on one visit into Thailand. The 7 day grace period covers any "tight" timelines on having to do a 2nd 90 day report in 6 months.
I was traveling visiting some friends during my last reporting window and submitted online, only to be rejected. I visited the local immigration facility and it was explained to me that I needed to do the report where I live only. They were very nice and calmed my fears of problems with immigration by helping me understand the 7 day grace period after the 90 days in country that you have to file. I was home before that time was expired so everything worked out fine.
I just wanted to help anyone else that might not have gone through the 90 report process yet. Because of the slight pain of the process in my busy area now that it is high season, I might consider one of those do it for you visa services to file my next 90 day report, if they don't charge too much.
Here are my situtaion, I was reporting through website as usually but didn’t get any answer about the result after 14 days. So I decided to go to immigration but unfortunately earthquake happened. Today has passed the due date of 90 days report but I saw the news that Cheangwattana Building is having an accident occured again today. In this case, the immigration will cause a fine for 90 days report late or not ?
Good day everyone! I wonder if anyone can perhaps shed some light on the following please? My Visa and Work Permit will expire on 25 Feb 2025, and I'm not sure whether I will get a new contract. If I don't, I have to leave no later than the 25th, but I understand that there is a procedure through which I can get a 7-day grace period, as my preferred flight is the Monday 3rd March. Is this accurate and what would the procedure be? Is it something one can just take for granted, that it will be approved, since I would like to book my outward bound ticket as soon as possible? Thanks in advance!
