Hello ! Anyone who got DTV with soft power courses experienced any issues at airport immigrations during visa runs ? Like the officers question about new courses and how the course is doing because normally the courses are 6 months long. Is it required to enroll new courses after each one expires just to extend my period of stay? i’m going to skip soft power option if it is so. It’s going to be costly.

Hi everyone,

I applied for the 5-year DTV as a Cyprus tax resident (Non Domicile) and company owner, but mistakenly selected UAE as my current location because Cyprus has no embassy and I thought that field only chose the processing embassy.

I submitted all Cyprus-based docs, then got asked to provide UAE documents. I need to know if I can fix the existing application to reflect Cyprus instead, or if I must reapply (and pay again).

Also: I am a Non Domicile (60 days) in Cyprus. I have no residency card—can I use rental agreement + utility bills + tax residency proof? And is a shareholder certificate enough to prove my business status? I'm not employed, my only source of income is through dividends being a shareholder and director of my company.

Did anyone have this situation? What's my best collection of papers to get the visa?

Thank you for allowing me to join your group. I am a soul singer from Philly.i wanted spend one year in Thailand and am interested in the black music scene if any there

When entering this morning the lady at immigration filled out the stamp incorrectly and changed it like this. Has anyone had any issues when exiting with something like this?

I'm currentlt on a 90 day tourist visa however just realised my return flight I've previously booked and paid for, my departure date will take me past my 90 day visa by an extra 6 days.

Will this cause me issues upon departure at the airport ?

I applied in manila thai embassy, submitted all my working visa documents in the PH and my proof that i can work remotely. After my visa was rejected, i plan on going to TH via the visa free route but found out i was blacklisted in TH. Their reason for Blacklist is incorrect. How do i go on about this? They said my ICard should not be issued to foreigners and that they have suspicions of fake document. But only foreigners are issued icard and not local filipinos. My guess is that the consul is not familiar with Philippine documents. How can they blacklist if they are not sure. Immigration can certainly issue a CTC of the documents i submitted

Im posting as anonymous cause i tried to apply to the DTV with an agent and they were a disaster (compass) they ghosted me asked me the same docs over and over again, their app didnt work and made me waste a lot of time and somehow ended more stressed about it. I did it my own as took me literally 5 mins is pretty easy as long as you have compiled the docs in low resolution to be uploaded. My visa was approved and will be back in Thailand tomorrow :) thanks everyone for the tips

Hello everyone. I was denied entry into Thailand based on a 60-day exemption. Will I have a problem entering with a DTV visa? Has anyone had a similar problem? How can I re-enter Thailand? I don't have an entry ban.

Hi Group. In Laos getting stamp fo non immigrant O.

Arrive today through friendship bridge Nong khai.

Got passport stamped. Now they say at border I need to go Laos Embassy to get Visa to stay here 2 days...They are closed tomorrow Sunday so I need to go Monday get visa than head back Thailand.

Shit fight at border but that another story...

So I left Thailand and reentered on my DTV back in April. Today I went to report my address for the 90 day report.

Had all my documents in order (or so I thought).

I did not know you needed a TM30 for each time you exit and reenter Thailand. Immigration official’s smile immediately fades when she looks me up in the system and asks why my TM30 is dated for July and not April.

Well, “There was a typo in my name”, I said.

She said, “No, where is your TM30 for April. You only have two TM30s. Where is owner. Charge ฿1600. Contact owner right now. Do not leave. You call I speak to owner.”

Condo Owner: not responding to texts or calls

Me: the genius who left his wallet back at the condo, because, “Oh, immigration is just a short stroll to the beach, I’ll be in and out.”

Currently sitting here hoping they’ll let me return with the money. Each time they ask for owner, they just get angrier and angrier. Dear God

Update: They let me come back with the money. Got my receipt and I swear to God I’ll never make that mistake again 🤣
