I sent my application to the Thai Embassy in Washington DC this past weekend, and I am waiting for approval. I'm considering booking a flight from America to Thailand for this coming weekend. I assume that the application won't be decided by the time I arrive in Bangkok. I will use the "entry on arrival" 60 day. The flight will be booked as a roundtrip with a return in June. If my DTV is approved after I arrive should I go to emigration or can I wait until I leave? Any issues?

Thanks.

I have a question I was on Thai e visa on a tourist visa it’s asking multiple entry or single entry I plan to go in May to Thailand and again in September but in September I’m staying for as long as I can stay what’s the best visa I should be applying for thank you for the advice

Hi,

Do I need a visa for a 2 week holiday in May ?

Does anyone know if you are running out of pages in your passport which your dtv visa is in, can you use another passport to enter or get the visa re issued into the new visa?

Thanks for the helpful comments.

I eventually found the UK passport information online.

For Thailand the extra months carry over.

For travel in Eu its 10 years from date of issue.

It may seem like a stupid question......but....when does my passport finish for Travel to Thailand.

I saw something on the news a few weeks ago about expiry dates.

I'm sure it mentioned that uk passports were now only valid for 10 years on date of issue.

However I'm not sure if that was just to go to EU.

I'm aware that I need to have 6 months left when I travel, but not sure now if my passport expires July 26 or April 27.

Just joined the group. I visited Thailand for eight days last month, going for two weeks in June again, l also want to visit in December for two weeks, is there a limit how often one can visit Thailand. I live in UK,retired .

DTV approved ! Copy of Schwab cash account , letter from my company about me saying I need to work while gone ( signed by president me and vice president wife) , copy of professional license , letter of intent stating future plans and attesting to my US location. Filed February 27th , not heard a thing. Emailed Monday and got visa today. FYI

Hi everyone,

I want to share my experience about re-entering Thailand with a DTV visa.

I am Taiwanese and hold a Taiwanese passport. Recently, I’ve seen some posts expressing concerns about re-entering Thailand. I have entered Thailand 4 times with DTV through BKK without any issues.

My DTV route is Soft Power(Muay Thai).

I just want to say that if you applied by yourself or through an agency with correct and truthful information, you should have no problems re-entering Thailand every time.

Why have I re-entered so many times? Because I love traveling. But Thailand is my favorite country.🇹🇭

I departed to Malaysia on Friday and arrived back at DMK on Sunday. Showed DTV on my phone and got stamped in. Hope it helps.

I have my flight booked and am planning on visiting end of October, would it be too far in advance to apply NOW, 6 months ahead of time? Will be applying via Soft power/Muay Thai at the NY Embassy. (Only have done some cursory skimming but looks like most people get their applications in only a few *weeks* in advance of departure?) I'd just like the peace of mind having it locked in before any potential negative changes to the program...
