When I presented my DTV evisa at the Chiang Mai airport today I was led away to a separate area. It seemed like they were taking all the DTV visas to a separate area. When I was filling up my form I had a question and when she realized that I was on a workstation she let me go over and process my stamp. I think they are focusing more on questioning the soft power applicants. Just a fyi to be prepared to answer some questions.

Those whose bank accounts were closed, what are your alternatives?

I have obtained DTV in last year. My visa is sticker visa type. Now my passport is going to expire in coming December thus I would play new passport in my resident country. How do I transfer my dtv visa to New passport? TIA.

I was wondering how much the new immigration law affects DTV visa holders.

Is there anything we should be aware of, and if so, when should we proceed?

If this topic has already been discussed, please feel free to point me to the relevant post.

Thanks in advance!

Hello, I am currently in Thailand and will soon start freelancing. I have seen several people doing the DTV process from Vietnam. I would like to know if I can telework for a few weeks from Vietnam to justify my income? Is it legally allowed? and which kind of visa do I need in Vietnam? (I am French)

I have to have 2 residency certificate for my Thai drivers licences.

I have a certificate so can I copy the original or do I have to go to immigration and get another one?

Is this directive from 2023 still in effect, or is this purely up to the immigration officer at the airport? I called immigration in Thailand today and they informed me they are not sure what this directive is. With the introduction of TDAC I wanted to know how this applies.

What should I do, I entered on the 24th of December 2024 and 180 days would be 22nd of June, I ajve booked my flight for this day from bangkok back to my home country.

I have just noticed my passport is stamped to 21st June I'm guessing mistakenly. This is obviously today and I am debating overstaying a day as immigration is shut today and tomorrow and my flight is tomorrow. I have asked the airline about changing this but it is not possible.

What would peoples advice be would 1 day overstay due to a miscalculation of the days on the stamp, to be clear 180 days from entry including day of entry is 22nd of June, be a serious issue if so how?

Also what will happen if I try to board the flight while having the 1 day overstay

About to apply for a DTV but my finances are spread over savings (cash isa's , bonds , savings ) account. I very rarely have much in my current account just covers my bills due to it being 0%. I was told by somebody else who has thinking of applying that the 12k has to be in a current a/c for three months and not savings accounts , is this true ? thanks.

Regarding holding the 800K baht for 3 months after the annual extension of retirement visa, is it 3 months from the date you applied / got the extension at immigration, or is it the date the previous extension expires, new extension starts?
