Where did you stay in Hanoi while waiting for your visa ?

There are hundreds of places on the booking platforms but I am looking for a personal recommendation.

Obviously I want to be in or close to the Old Quarter and AC is a must.

I'm budgeting for around 20usd a night but I am getting too many hostels and dorms coming up.

Any hidden gems out there someone can suggest ?

Philippines - DTV

Has any Filipino here applied for or processed their DTV visa in the Philippines? I’d really appreciate hearing about your experience, any tips you can share, and how Philippine immigration was when you departed the country. Thanks so much!

How long should I give myself in Vietnam to secure a DTV and return to Thailand?

I’m planning to book return flights from Thailand to Vietnam (Hanoi) and apply for my DTV from there. I need the return ticket, so do I give myself 2 weeks? 3? If I return before the DTV is issued then I guess my DTV application gets cancelled so I’m nervous. But I’d rather not spend a whole month in Vietnam just for DTV

What is the best way to get a Digital Arrival Card and when is it required.

Hi. What's the risk of being denied entry to Thailand? My latest experience: staying in Thailand from July 2024 to June 2025. During this time, I had four border runs and extensions at the immigration office. Previous years involved short visits of two weeks each. I haven't been to Thailand since June, which is nine months. Now I'd like to go for two weeks. I don't have time to apply for a different visa type because I'd like to fly to Thailand tomorrow 😂

Are Swedish Kronas SEK ok as equivalent to 20,000 baht?

ATTENTION ALL MEMBERS

What to do if you get a "bad" entry stamp?

"Bad Stamped" <- getting stamped in to thailand on an entry stamp that is wrong, (as in wrong entry/visa code, or for the wrong amount of time)

Surprisingly (or not) people get "bad stamped" into the country all the time.

This happens for a variety of reasons,

BUT

100% it's due to people not checking their passport before they walk away from passport control. 🙁

Now a couple things about bad stamps.

First; Immigration offices inside the country are NOT obligated to correct a bad entry stamp, although they sometimes will correct a bad air entry stamp, they will almost always decline to correct a bad land entry and instead send you to the border you stamped in at to get the stamp corrected.

Good news is; if you get bad stamped in from an air entry and you go back to the airport you can get the stamp corrected in a matter of minutes. Go to the customer service counter and they'll page an immigration officer to come up.

Second if you are bad stamped in for longer than you should have been stamped in for you are not allowed to stay that length of time.

Just because the stamp was wrong doesn't mean you get to stay if they gave you more time than you were supposed to get. You will get caught out and fined for overstay when you stamp out.

It is the responsibility of the passport holder to know how long they'll get stamped in for and to check that they got the correct entry stamp when they stamp in

If you have an eVisa from a thai consulate, we recommend you print out the PDF that they emailed you when they approved the visa <- that PDF actually IS your visa..

Hand it and your passport to the officer at passport control when you stamp in.

AND

check your entry stamp when they hand the passport back to you..

The time to correct bad stamps is when you're still standing at the stamp in counter in front of passport control rather than a couple weeks later when you finally notice you got stamped in wrong😲

Best of luck and safe travels to everyone 👍

1. I read that LTR visa holders are given access to Fast Track. If I hold LTR visa, will I be able to bring gf who is on another (DTV) visa through with me since we travel together? Or she will have to go to the regular queue, or pay additionally.

2. If we are both on DTV and decide to purchase some fast track service, is 1 purchase for both of us enough, or each one has to buy individually and get a separate window / attendant?

ps. I know fast track isn't necessary most times, but I have my reasons and just want to know how it works.

Thank you!
