IMMIGRATION OFFICE CLOSURES DECEMBER 2025

ALL Immigration offices in the country will be closed the following days in December

Friday Dec 5th

Wednesday December 10th

Wednesday December 31st

NOTE; ALL Immigration offices will be closed the following days for the New Year holiday

Wednesday Dec 31st

Thursday Jan 1st

Friday Jan 2nd

That means the immigration offices thru-out the country will be closed from 4:30PM Tuesday Dec 30th until 8:30AM Monday January 5th <- Plan accordingly :)

Remember if you have a stamp that expires on a day the immigration office is closed (weekends or holidays) AND you go the very next day the immigration office is open you will not be charged for overstay and you can get your extension like usual. You will get an overstay stamp in your passport but it will say "overstay xxx days, fine waived due to holiday..

Also entry/exit points to thailand (airports/land borders) DO NOT CLOSE for holidays :)

Have any DTV holders on soft power gone to their home country for the Xmas/holiday season and faced any difficulty when coming back into Thailand? This is obviously a normal reason to exit and re-enter, but if anyone was grilled for "not participating" in their activity please comment with your experience! 🙏

Hey there,

I’m applying for my DTV soon and will be leaving for Hanoi in a couple of days. I had a few questions before I go and was hoping to get some help here, as I’m a bit nervous about the process:

1. Is it okay to apply online just two days before traveling to Hanoi?

2. Has anyone recently done this in Hanoi? If so, how long did the process usually take?

3. Do they require you to visit the embassy there, and should I be prepared for that?

Thank you in advance for your help!

My host foundation has recommended, due to the coming two holidays, that I renew my visa 2 days late. Is this going to cause issues for me? (Holidays on the 28th and 1st. Visa is due the 2nd)
