DTV holder entry requirements.

Hi,

My gf and I are moving to Thailand on a DTV visa for workation. We plan to be there around 2 years, exploring Asia and working remotely (my gf works as a freelancer and I own a company).

We've seen a ton of information online about entry at the airport being a potential issue.

Can anyone share a list of things we must have upon entry to ensure we will be fine and have a smooth entry experience?

Thanks in advance

I’m leaving Thailand to go to Hong Kong tomorrow and will return some time next week. As I understand, I don’t need a re entry permit, and may be asked for proof of funds & to show a copy of my DTV certificate.

Is there anything else I should be aware of/bring with me?

Hello, I like to know if a visa run with dtv after 180 days is always approved or may it be denied?

After 180 days can you extend at immigration Office only without visa run?

Thank you

Kind regards

Hi everyone, I am currently staying in Thailand on a DTV. I just recently renewed my passport and got a new book here in Thailand.

My question is: Do I need to visit the Immigration office to transfer my DTV stamp from the old passport to the new one? If so, what documents are required for the transfer?

Thank you in advance for your help!

I arrived yesterday at BKK Suvarnabhumi using my new TDV (remote work) visa.

Everything was extremely simple and without any questions.

I only presented my passport, boarding pass, printed TDV and TDAC documents and my yellow fever vaccination form (not necessary "in theory").

After reading in this same group about people who were extensively questioned, I went prepared with a good dose of patience. It wasn't necessary; it took less time than the four times I entered as a tourist.

Grateful to the Hanoi consulate, which had the patience and willingness to ask for more documents twice and analyzed them quickly.

Hey guys. I applied for my visa on the 14th and got accepted on the 28th. My first app was denied because of the gym I chose, this time they didn’t ask any follow up questions. It went very smooth.

Now my new question is what all do I need to enter the country when I fly out in a few weeks? I heard I still need a return flight, is that true?

Has anyone had the embassy request an original letter of notarized consent for the minor to travel abroad from mother and father/ legal guardian if the applicant is traveling alone? Our children won't be traveling without one of us so I'm not sure if it applies to us or how to word the letter. This is for DTV, mine has already been approved.

About to do my first re entry with the DTV. Just wondering if anyone has had any issues re entering and if any paperwork or anything else is needed aside from the DTV document?
