If I fly to Hanoi Vietnam after 80 days in Thailand (I got 60+30 days visa exemption with a Canadian passport), can I fly back to Thailand on the same day and get another 60 days visa exemption? Or do I need to stay a few nights in Vietnam? Thanks 🙏

Kap Cheong (Surin) / O'Smach border run update: I crossed into Cambodia at O'Smach today. 1500 baht for the 1 month single entry visa to Cambodia. 500 baht penalty for not staying at least 24 hours. 300 baht for a "guide" who found and filled out all the documents including TM6. 300 baht for the Thai immigration officer to not ask for the 3 proofs for a "visa free" entry of 60 days. All over and done in 30 minutes.

I want to stay in Thailand October to April what would I need to do

Hey everyone 🙂

Flying to Vietnam this week to submit my DTV.

Don’t mind where to stay, Hanoi or HCM.

Flights to Da Nang are a bit cheaper, but I heard Hanoi Consulate process the applications a bit faster.

Anyone has any experience to share?

Thanks!

Isn't it more beneficial to just take Euros with you and to exchange? Pay now each atm withdrawal is 220 baht plus cost from my bank in the Netherlands? Mvg deep down

Is het niet voordeliger om gewoon euro, s mee te nemen en om te wisselen? Betaal nu ben elke atm opname 220 baht plus kosten van mijn bank in Nederland? Mvg jeroen

Has anyone already extended their DTV visa for a second

180 days?

Flying into Thailand is the email of visa sufficient or so you need to print it out? Did a search here but couldn’t find a definite answer.

I'm planning to stay 3 nights in either Ko-phangan or Koh samui. Which one would you recommend for 31st January to 3rd February?

DTV APPROVED!

I applied through e-visa in Indonesia on 02/01 03:00 after I landed. Approved on Monday 06/01 13:00.

I applied as a freelance writer. Provided them with official business registration from my home country, 2 letters from employers stating I have worked for them and will continue to do so remotely. Also gave them screenshots of my website, social media, resume, and examples of my work.

Current address: An exit stamp of Thailand, entry stamp + visa for Indonesia, hotel booking.

I also gave them 3 months statement of my savings account and my 2022 invoices overview, and a signed contract for some work I'm doing right now.

PS: Jakarta is the worst city I have ever been to in my life (I am well traveled person). I got robbed by three men on a motorbike and got sick due to air pollution. The food is very bad and the city smells and is unhygienic. 2 other people in my hotel got their phones stolen as well. So I run away to Bali after 2 days.

Good luck with your application and thank you all for sharing your tips and tricks.

Is there a certain amount of time you need to have left on your passport for DTV? (before it expires)
