I've arrived last week in Thailand and entered with a visa exempt. Two days later, I have received the confirmation and approval for my DTV visa, which was under processing prior to that. I've mentioned this situation to the IM officers at the airport, and they said it's no problem, I just need to wait for the confirmation, and once it's done have the stamp exchanged at the local IM office. I went to Huahin office and see if I can have the stamp changed, but they said I have to leave and re-enter the country. Please let me know your input on this. Thanks!

Is e visa the same as the new ETA coming in soon

Hi, I’ve just applied for DTV visa with proof of my Muay Thai membership which has 4 years left. Although I purchased it in 2020 and it started last year from the day of my first training. Hoping they don’t go off the date it was emailed to me.

But you have to pay £300 before sending it off so has anyone had any problems with it being rejected? It says you can’t get your money back in that case

Does anyone know if DTV holders can get VAT refunds at the airport - as with the tourist visa ?

I have a question about the dtv visa. Does the visa allow you to be in Thailand 6 months of the year only or does it allow you to be in Thailand 6 months at a time? In other words when your 6 months is up you leave Thailand for a short period and come back for an another 6 months?

Hi, do any of you, sir or ma’am, know if DTV is allowed to frequently enter and exit, or if that would breach the border regulations?

Thank you

Has anyone got DTV visa with evidence of funds through sponsorship route

(If you have please explain what happened)

Hi Everyone,

I am curious to know if your DTV visa is approved do you need to submit your passport to the embassy or is it an electronic visa so no need?

I ask this as I am working remotely in Papua New Guinea and would normally apply through Australia but I won’t be in Australia during this time and plan to be back with a stop over in Singapore and then on to Phuket on the 18/12/2024.

I’m an Australian expat that has lived in Thailand for the last 15 years but this is a new one for me and have always had a Non O Spouse visa multiple entries but that is no longer available.

Thanks for your help.

Does a U.S. passport have 30 or 45 days stay in Thailand without a need for a visa?

I’ll likely have to change my retiree visa from retiree to DTV next year because I had to dip into my 800k to take care of an emergent need.

Do I have to go back to the USA to file the DTV e-visa or can I do it closer to Thailand, say in Vietnam?

I have an LLC in the states so I can restart my subcontracting for the DTV. Thoughts?
