Im currently in Thailand on a visa exemption on holiday and I want to apply for a DTV for remote working. My plan is to go to Vietnam to apply. I have a spouse and 2 kids. Do I need to get my DTV approved before I submit their applications? Does anyone have experience of this and any timeframes? 🙏

With the new rules, how many times can I enter in Thailand with a visa exemption? I'll enter by plane and won't extend the exemption.

I am coming to Thailand for the first time this year i plan on useing a 60 date vida exempt for about 66 day then going to the philippines for about 10 days then hopefully getting another 60 day visa exempt my question is would that count 1 for 2025 and one for 2026 or I won't be able to do that

Has anyone flown into Thailand since the crackdown on border runs? Looking to get some information straight from the horses mouth.

There appears to be conflicting information available regarding the number of visa exemptions that can be obtained per year through land borders and air travel into the country.

For example my case, I flew from my home country to Thailand and received a visa exemption which I extended 30 days. Then I did my first ever land border run to Malaysia. So that's my 2 visa-exempt stamps. Booked my flight back home in advance (roughly 1 month from today), anticipating an extension but then this crackdown began.

Is it worth flying to KL and back into Thailand, hoping that they will be more lenient on flights, or just lose my bookings, call it a day and head home?

Edit: It expired in Feb 2025, it's a 2 years license

Is it possible to renew an expired bike driving license if you are on visa exemption?

Anyone knows if this is possible to do in Chiang Mai or Pai area?

Hello, I have a visa question.

I am a US passport holder, currently on an ED Visa (learning thai language). It ends beginning of December. Am I allowed to leave the country for a few days and come back on a visa exempt or will I have issues at immigration since I have just been in the country for 12 months on an ED Visa?

How long does visa exempt last for these days? Still 60 days or have they changed it back to 30 days?

Does anyone have experience on this matter?

Does anyone know if a person would need a visa traveling to THAILAND from the U.S. I’d like to go for a couple of months to see if and where I want to retire. I’m retired all ready just looking into HUA HIN so any advice will be appropriated

Hi. Can we still get 60 days visa exempt on arrival at the moment, and have thay set a date when its going to change. Cheers.

I'm flying to Thailand today from UK, I was advised by travel agent to complete the online visa exemption form/landing info, the sent the link in their travel info which I did with some difficulty (country of origin is required in 3 different places on the form and the UK is not easy to find on the list as it's GB on one, United kingdom in another, very confusing.. anyway all done on Sunday.. but now I'm seeing this isn't even a thing until May 1st, so was that just a waste of my time?

Hi, I'm heading back to Thailand for the 3rd time withing 6-7 months ( unplanned as I've been invited to a wedding).... I'll get visa exemption.... Is it ok to book a onward ticket to Malaysia (KL) ? Or do the neighbouring country rules apply for visa exemption too?? ..... Just don't want extra hassle with me being in and out a few times already.

Thanks!
