Hi. Most people here are asking about documents related to things like work. I have a different question – flights. Every 1.5-2 months, due to personal matters, I'll need to return to my home country for about a week. So, I need a long-term visa, but my stay in Thailand won't exceed 80/90 days. When applying for a visa, I'm asked to provide a return flight. I have few questions:

1) What if I don't have a return flight yet? I plan to move to Thailand permanently in February next year and have a one-way flight.

2) Does my departure from Thailand have to be a return flight to my home country in Europe, or can it even be to a nearby country in Asia? What if I don't use that flight?

3) What if I buy a return flight and it will be for about two months after my arrival date? Will they still consider me a DTV, or will they force me to apply for a different type of visa?

Which flight did you put into the form? Did they want any confirmation of booking?

I believe a DTV Visa is for 5 years. But do I have to leave Thailand every 6 months? Or is it possible to re-stamp and stay permanently for the 5 years?

Just considering options comparing to a marriage visa which im planning shortly.

Hello everyone, couple months ago I got my visa in Jakarta. Got it in around 7 working days, I recently saw you need to do location reports every 3 months.

My question is:

Do I need to report every 3 months after I got my visa or the 3 months start counting after the last time you left the country? I got the visa June 26th but left the country July 27th. TM30 report must be done in September or October? Thanks in advance

Hello all. Regarding the Destination visa. I can have the financial statements they ask for but only at the beginning. I can't keep the amount constant.

Will they ask me to show them my account for every extension?

I want to ask about your experience reporting 90 days in Thailand via traditional post:

1) How to be sure they actually received my letter and approved report? What type of shipment I should choose?

2) When should I send the letter, which immigration office? Relevant to city? I'm in Bkk.

Hello guys. Tonight just arrived at Suvarnabhumi Airport and entering Thailand for the second time using my DTV visa. No issue from the immigration. I just give my passport and my dtv visa. Just dont forget to fill your visa number up when you register TDAC on the visa number section.

Other info :

-If you stay nearly 90 days, you need to do 90 days report.

-After second 90days, then you need to get our from Thailand to restart your DTV staying period (180 days)

-If you dont want to do, just go out from Thailand for shoe vacation at other country and come back again for another 180 days.

Sorry typo the days.😅

Happy Holiday!

I’ve just been searching advice at an agent here in Thailand. She told me there is no need to add/apply kids under 14 yo on/for DTV (as dependents) Any thoughts on that ..?

Hi guys, I have a question. For married visa do I need to do entry stamp or reporting every 3 months or no need ?

Has anyone successfully obtained a DTV visa via the (Austria)n embassy while unemployed and with no income? Thank you!

Hi all, from my research here I believe the DTV visa once approved gets activated in 2 ways -

1. You receive ur approved DTV e-visa via e-mail. Carrying this document you fly in to Thailand show this e-visa along with the regular docs TDAC and they will stamp us with the DTV 5 year?

2. You submit your passport to a Thai embassy outside the country and once approved get it stamped there too ??

I’m very confused how option 2 works.

Does it still require approved DTV e-visa via email prior to that ? I see in posts people say they submitted their passport at the embassy and received it back in a few days with the DTV stamp?
