DTV EXTENSION BORDER BOUNCE

My girlfriend is approaching her first 180 day extension (due next month) for her DTV Visa. I understand that you can do a simple border bounce to get the new 180 day stamp. Is that correct? The most convenient border for her is Malaysia.

When she does the border bounce, she will have a copy of the DTV Visa she received by email, the DTV sticker in her passport, and all of her original documents that she submitted with the application with her. But do any of the documents need to be updated because obviously they will be 6 months old? For example, bank statements, her work portfolio etc.

Thank you for any advice.

Experince yesterday at BKK. I was previously on a Non-O Retirement with extensions. I was married to a Thai wife now divorced. Two children in Surin. I left Thailand for two years for work and returned Visa exempt 4 December 2024 for 60 days to see my children. Ex wife (Thai) stays in Australia to work. I had difficulty with child access and border bounced Cambodia to get extra time to get access. I left within the second 60 days for Australia for a few weeks. Organising a court case in Thailand for custody. I was held by immigration even after explaining that i am seeking a Non -O on basis of Thai children but need custody. They also had my history and told me where I lived. The IO called supervisor and berated me for the border bounce. I was told next time no Visa, no entry. Seems the reports of multiple 60 day are real. I have never been questioned on previous Visa exempt entries.

I’m due for ACL surgery after an accident & am supposed to do a border bounce in June. I’m not supposed to fly & my 180 days expires 2 months after my surgery date. Is there any other way aside from extending in person? I want to avoid moving money around again..

Has anyone had an extention granted after actually finishing their soft power activity? I went to cooking school for two weeks and was granted a Visa on those grounds. Will the certificate of completion be sufficient for en extention, or does it have to be an ongoing activity?

Is there anyone entering to Thailand from Vientiane - Nong Khai border lately on border bounce purpose? Is there any abnormal situations? I'm just curious coz I'm gonna do that tomorrow.

Hello everyone

Could you please share your border bounce experience? Cuz my 180 day stamp is gonna expire soon

Which country did you do?

How many days did you have to stay? And

What questions did they ask upon entry of another country and

Entry back to Thailand?

Thanks so much in advance

Have a nice day

Hey everyone,

Looking for a solid visa border bounce service from Bangkok—specifically one with good drivers and comfortable vans (no sketchy rides 😅).

If you’ve had a good experience with a company, drop your recommendations!

Appreciate it!

Hi. Asking for an elderly relative. How many times can she renew a 1 month tourist visa? (She’s hoping indefinitely).

Has anyone experienced border bounce by land ?

Will crossing border by land consider exit the country ?

Hello everyone, this is my first time in thailand and my tourist visa ends in 1 week (60+30) so I need to do border bounce.

Option 1 is to take a morning flight from bangkok to phnom penh and return same day evening.

Option 2 is to pay for agency, take a minivan and a guide from Bangkok to Chantaburi Province and return the same day.

I prefer take the flight but I'm not sure if the border officer will approve my entry back in thailand when I'm on my own. Do you think that would be a problem?

Any other suggestions? Thank you all
