A few questions regarding the DTV. I'm currently stuck in the UK waiting for this thing to come through, which is taking longer than I'd hoped.
1. What happens if I enter Thailand on a standard 60-day stamp-on-arrival while my visa is still pending? Someone (random Facebook comment) claimed that this would invalidate the visa. Is this true? I haven't been able to confirm this.
2. Assuming I could just leave now and enter Thailand on a 60-day stamp, then, if & when the DTV is granted, could I then cross into e.g. Cambodia, print it out, and then enter Thailand with it-- or do you have to be arriving from your country of origin to initialize it?
3. Are they asking for an onward ticket with this visa? It seems unreasonable given that it allows a stay of up to 6 months, but then again, it's bureaucracy, and Thai bureaucracy at that.
4. I've already been asked for additional documents, which I supplied. How many rounds of "additional document requests" can the process go through before it's either granted or denied? They actually responded within 24 hours with this request, which I submitted the same day, but since then it's been stuck on "pending documents".
Thanks.
