My DTV Visa was issued online through the Los Angeles, CA Royal Thai Embassy.

Do I have show anything more upon arrival in BKK?

I just arrived from Taipei to Chiang Mai 12/13/26 11:00.

The airport was not crowded.

Immigration had many officers waiting for us.

I showed the officer my DTV Visa stapled in the passport.

He asked no questions, smiled and said “ Welcome to Thailand."

I checked my passport and was correctly stamped in for 180 days.

NOTE: there was a typed document in multiple languages pasted on the immigration window saying, “Please show your hotel or address where you will be staying".

Remember this is one of the "3 Proofs"that we hear about. I was not asked but I had a reservation for a $4 hotel.

How many of you remember the other 2 "Proofs"?

I will be travelling to Thailand on January 7th 2026 for 3 weeks. I was in thailand for 2 weeks in April with a brief visit to Vietnam then back to Thailand for 4 days. Do you think i need a visa. Im a uk citizen with uk passport

Hiya everyone I've been on holiday twice already this year staying with my girlfriend at her home in udon Thani I've booked and paid for a flight back over Christmas 16th dec till 5th of January and didn't realise i would need a visa and now no time to get one I'm from the UK and have a UK passport over the last few years I've been 6 times with no problems any advice or do I cancel and lose my money for the flight

I got my DTV 1 year ago, while I was living in Thailand, but now I am moving to live in Japan, when I got my DTV it was the Muay Thai one, so now that I will not be in a Muay Thai Gym anymore, living in Japan, if I go as a tourist for a Week in Thailand, I would be going as a DTV Visa or a Tourist Visa? If as a DTV, since I am not in Muay Thai School anymore, there will be something wrong? How does it work? Thank you so much!

Question : dependents with DTV

Hi everyone,

Can I check if anyone has tried travelling to Thailand on a dependent’s DTV while the main DTV holder is not traveling to Thailand yet?

My wife is the main DTV holder while me and our kids are dependents on her DTV (All 4 of us have our DTV approved)

We are thinking of flying into Thailand first and my wife will fly back a few weeks later.

We will prepare all the documents we submitted and also the min. cash amount as they seem to be clamping down on that as well.

Has anyone been stopped or turned around before in such similar scenarios?

Hello everyone .

Last year I entered Thailand on 24 December 2024 and stayed for about 40 days . Left to visit Siem Reap and Kuala Lumpur for a week then came back to Phuket for about two weeks ( first entry on visa exemption of 2025). After left back to my home country of Romania for two weeks , then Istanbul, Dubai , Cairo and back to Thailand for another week( second entrance on visa exemption for 2025) . Mid March I returned home to Romania got my USA work visa and stayed in America to work from April to December. Now my plan is to bring my parents to SE Asia . We will be in Vietnam for a week but would like

to fly to Thailand on 31st of December for New Years Eve( it would technically be a third entrance in 2025, but with an almost 9 month pause between this and the last entrance) . Do you guys think it would be an issue , should I wait until it’s technically 2026 the fly into Thailand. Overall I have spent probably less than 60 days this year in Thailand .

Thank you

Metv applied pending aproval uploaded additinal documents ... fly 15th ... but im thinking thjs may not come back and i lose flight applied from london ten days ago additional dicuments loaded 2 days after ?

I was in Thailand in January and July this year. I didn't do the extension and flew back to the UK before the 60 days on both occasions. I am planning to fly back to Thailand end of the month and planning to stay for less than 8 weeks. Will this be OK or is it best to get a tourist visa?
