Has anyone been refused entry with a e-visa ( tourist)? I ask because when applying the embassy doesn’t look at your passport record. Immigration and embassies don’t seem to be connected. Or are they?

Hi I am applying for my DTV in Manila, Philippines as a business owner. They are now requesting further documents from me, which is to show that I had 500k baht in my bank statements for the last 3 months.

However, I've only kept the 500k baht in my account for the last month or so, and I've used my money to invest in crypto, so I have no bank statements to show that I have 500k baht sitting in my account for the last 3 months.

Do you think I can submit a letter explaining in detail all this and they will accept it or is it a loss cause? Has anyone had a similar experience? Would really appreciate your help, thank you.

Is it mandatory now to have a signed lease (with copies of all the owner docs) in order to get a Non-O Extension based on retirement? I recall years ago I flew in and re-extended while staying in a hotel. They made me draw a map to the hotel to the Nana Hotel. Is that no longer possible? Thanks!

Curious, are you guys just skipping 90 day report and pay the 2k fee on the flight day?

It seems kinda silly to lose a whole day for 2k when we can work from home and make more then that.

Edit: thx everyone, had no clue thailand does not care about the 90 day report for dtv holders, just another weird thai system that makes no sense, gotcha.

Good morning. I was approved for a medical DTV. My spouse will accompany me. What type of application will they apply for and what documentation does they need to send in? Thank you.

Hello!

What should I do if I lost my 90-day report slip but I leave the country before it is on due? Does the old slip still required to show to the immigration?

Potentially a stupid question.

Do I have to transfer the student visa into the new passport if cancelling soon?

My under 18 student will cancel the student visa, leave the country for 8 days, return on a tourist visa, stay 50 days then leave Thailand permanently. Is the hassle of transferring the visa to the new passport necessary of were going to cancel it 2 weeks later?

Hi everyone, on March 7th I left Phuket for Kuala Lumpur to apply for a DTV visa.The documents were sent electronically on March 8, then I received a requery for certain documents and I sent them on March 11. Can I go back to Phuket and will my departure from Kuala Lumpur affect my visa, can they refuse?
