Hi team. I’m a Fifo (Fly in fly out of Australia) working a 2 on 3 off roster. Other than 2 years of Covid I been living in Thailand for over 13years coming in and out on a tourist Visa via Suvarnbhumi AP, never a problem…

I’m keen for a DTV for various reasons including but not limited too, long stays other than my 3 weeks off, drivers license renewal for longer than 12 months, accounts and personnal reasons.

My question is, has anyone FiFo here or know of anyone FiFo been successful with this DTV?

Thanks in advanced 💙

Did anybody apply for a DTV in German? I was thinking of applying in Munich, would love to hear experience 🙏

Hey Guys,

I’ve previously been in Bangkok during covid for 90 days on a 60 day tourist visa + 30 day extension.

I then came back to Thailand on a Tourist visa, left Thailand and went to Vietnam for 1 day and came back to Thailand with an ED visa from a language school learning Thai. I stayed in Thailand for 1 year from August 2023 - August 2024 on the ED Visa then left Thailand due to the expiration of my ED Visa.

I then returned to Thailand with my brother in October 2024 where I was asked “what was I doing in Thailand?” and I answered “traveling with family” and pointed to my brother who was behind me. I was then asked to provide proof of accommodation and proof of leaving Thailand plane ticket then I was let in with a 60 day tourist visa and have extended it for extra 30 days.

I will be leaving Thailand when my tourist visa ends on January 9 2025, I am planning on applying for the DTV Visa under soft power activity of Thai Cooking and renter Thailand with the DTV Visa in February 2025.

I’m quite worried I’ll be asked questions at the boarder.

Could anyone share their experience with being questioned due to their history of being in Thailand for long periods?

Could you guys share your opinions on if it’ll be fine or if you think it’s not smart to do this visa due to my previous long stays?

And if you got asked questions when entering with DTV Visa please let me know what they asked? So I can prepare myself

Thank you very much

If am going to extend my visa how long before my 60 day stamp is up should I apply ?

Has anyone received a DTV using a sponsorship letter instead of the B500k in a bank account? does this sponsorship letter come from employer, or can I as a parent provide that in the case of my daughter thanks

Hey everyone.

I need to extend my tourist visa and want to try the e visa extension. I read the information on the official website but I don’t really get it… I have to go to the office and get my stamp at the e visa counter. Yes. But is it necessary that I go the before my actual visa is running out? Or can I go whenever i want?

Thanks in advance!

I filled my DTV and paid for it online.

What does the status document check pending mean? Is there any action required from me?

What have people used for "Document indicating current location"? If you're going to a neighboring country to put the application through?

Hi, I'm planning to apply for a Destination Thailand Visa (DTV) to enroll in a Thai culinary class. For the required funds, would it be acceptable if my boyfriend transfers a lump sum to my account? He's willing to provide a letter confirming that he gifted the funds to support my DTV application and culinary studies. Would this meet the requirements? Thank you

Hi guys. I want to apply for DTV visa, using soft power path.

Anyone has tops on how to do so cheaply and efficiently?
