Leaving Thailand next week and have had my DTV visa since last summer. Since having the visa, I’ve left the country 4 times but have never had an issue with immigration coming back in. I always bring a paper copy of my Visa, have never missed a 90-day checkin, and always do my TM30. I am flying back in to DMK. Is there a need for fast track?
I have seen some people get held up in BKK with immigration so would love to hear some input.
Dear all. I just want to say something here. I have read a lot here and other platforms that people complain that they are denied immigration if they want to have an exemption visa. I made a visa run today for my first non OA. I stood at Krabi in a row of about 100 people. At least 10 people were sent to the side because they simply did not have the TDAC. Why don't people check what they need when they want to come to Thailand with a certain visa? But they are complaining...so just experienced this today. Just so stupid. So don't complain and just fill in the paperwork you have a wonderful stay here.
Wednesday 19:30 the 14th, pending approval status on the Friday evening before they closed and approved the following Monday at 13:40.
Very basic paperwork, was scared they would ask for more, only uploaded 3 months payslips, not a single question..
Flew into DMK the following day, not a single question, had ALL my docs printed but only gave the immigration lady the DTV e visa approval and she didn’t ask a single question just smiled and stamped me right in.
Second entry on my DTV after 5 months in Thailand. Arrived at DMK from KUL, presented DTV printout (A4), TDAC printout, and my passport. No questions, straight through in 30 seconds after photo and fingerprints. Swedish passport, workcation category.
I know there is scaremongering going on, but I assure you it's smoother than ever on a DTV. I just saw one guy pulled aside because he didn't fill in the TDAC.
its my first time entering Thailand, my dtv has been approved and I have printed it and have it with my passport. what other documents do I need to have ready to show immigration upon arrival?
