Hello, I just want to ask po. Is it possible for e-Visa to arrive late at night? or on weekends? Applied in Ho Chi Minh and have stayed here for almost 2 weeks now 😭

Just came through BKK on the DTV. UK passport and DTV was issued in London last November. Issued under remote work as I work for a UK company. This was my 10th DTV stamp and I’ve never been asked for proof of anything on entry. I have all the documents I used to apply in a folder on my laptop just incase but haven’t ever had anything more than a smile, stamp and thank you.

Just cos I know there have been mixed reports lately!

Looking for some advice on the Visa free possibility of extension.

Australian passport holder landing in Thailand for the first time, expecting to receive 60 day stamp.

Is it possible to pay for extension at immigration without doing border run?

Thank you in advance. 🙏

I am travelling to Thailand in January/2026 for 4 weeks. Would I have a problem re-entering Thailand in April? and then apply for a Non-O visa for marriage. I have a visa-exempt passport.

Hello 😊

I'm new here 👋

I'd like to ask you guys if I'm allowed to apply DTV Visa or what to do to get this visa.

I'm not working remote for company but only for myself. I have portfolio as I'm web designer and I have also real estate for rent in my country. But I'm not sure if this is ok for DTV visa. I have ofc 500k in Thai bank.

If above information is not enough what another way can I use to get this visa?

Thank for any advices.

Once the DTV visa approved how many days do you have to use it ?

Hey everybody, I don’t normally overshare but I definitely overthink! I’ve seen some very helpful responses within this group so I’m hoping that I get some solid advice. I’m a 54 year old Australian man who recently lost my job after going through a midlife crisis or mental breakdown & now a few health issues that are seemingly stress related!…. I’m currently receiving the help & medical so now looking for a recovery method plan.

On the 14/11/25 I sold an investment & I put the equivalent of $1.7 million baht into a interest savings account & plan to apply for the DTV visa on the 14/1/25 to fill the required 3 months without touching those funds.

I plan to utilise the soft power option & use a reputable Thai cooking class for 6 months! Due to my inexperience, I thought it best to apply from Australia but use an agent in conjunction with the Thai cooking class.

I will use seperate savings to fund the DVT, purchase flights accommodation etc. & have the equivalent value in cash on me of $150000 Thai baht on arrival. While I’ve travelled a lot to SE Asia over, Thailand in particular, I’ve only ever travelled as a tourist, never done border runs. My passport would be close to being within 6 months of expiry so I’ve purchased & received a new passport less than a month ago!

My questions are will the Embassy consider this application due to the fact that I’m currently unemployed?

The funds or time limit?

I was planning to purchase flights now for mid to late February? Can I book 1 way? Should I book return flights? Am I jumping the gun?

I know a lot hinges on my visa application but I really would like to get the ball rolling with confidence

TIA everyone

I appreciate any advice 🙏

Hello everyone

I am on my 2nd entry to Thailand this year of 60 days visa exempt. I did not extend the last time. My 60 day exemption ends 21st January. As I understand it you only get 2 visa exempt entries a year now.

As I am already in Thailand for the new calendar year will this current time count as 1 of my visa exempt entries for 2026?

To get the most days possible am I better jumping out before the new year and coming back in early 2026 so I get another 60 days with 30 day extension? I would then be able to get another 60 days with 30 days later in the year? Is this how it works?

Or do they look at the last time I was in the country and count the year from then?

Any input very much appreciated, thank you 🙏

Applied for dtv while in New York, soft power must Thai route 1 month course, given 6 month metv instead, didn’t use it, now in Hanoi and want to apply for dtv work action visa as a freelancer. I meet all the requirements but my metv visa doesn’t end until February(August2025 to February 2026) it says my tr visa is valid 06 July 2025 to 01 January 2026

I’m in Hanoi now, can I apply for dtv visa in the meantime while that other metv visa still exists that I didn’t use? Or do I have to wait for it to expire and when is the earliest I can apply then? I will apply in Hanoi. Appreciate any help, thank you so much!

Guys I applied for the 90 day report online and I think it was successful. They sent an email with the tm47 filled out. Do I need to bring that in to immigration or have I completed the 90 day report?
