I've been in Thailand since February this year (did the 6 month extension). My previous history before getting the DTV had me stopped and questioned every single entry for a couple of years.

Just left for a week to go to Hong Kong and back. They barely even looked at me at immigration when I came back, just stamped me in and waved me on.

Arrived in Bangkok on November 29 for my second entry under the DTV Digital Nomad visa. I came in from Madrid after spending 90 days traveling through Europe and Latin America.

Entry was completely smooth—about 1 minute at immigration, no questions at all. Got the full 6-month stamp again. Sharing the update in case it helps others.

Has anyone worked with a legitimate lawyer for a DTV visa? Only looking for actual experience and recommendations, not people advertising themselves to me. I'm going to have a combination of some remote income, student loans for my masters program (fully online) and maybe 8-10k in my bank account. I just dont see me getting the minimum balance in for 3 months with my timeline. My kids dad is moving there for work and we want to make sure the kids start at the beginning of the school year. I could marry him for a non O but honestly I really dont want to 😭

Hello everyone, on November 21st yesterday, I received my DTV visa in Vientiane, Laos. It only took me 5 working days from application to approval, which is amazing speed. On the same day, I successfully entered Thailand through Friendship Bridge with my DTV visa. Refusal of entry is only for frequent Border runners .not for DTV holders. I hope this information is helpful to everyone

4/5 Weeks for DTV application from London embassy?!

Hi guys, after waiting ages, I managed to get through to the Thai embassy in London via phone call.

After asking a few questions about the Visa, I finished by asking how long processing would take expecting her to say a few days or a week or two tops.

But instead, she said it would be about 4-5 weeks! I wasn’t expecting that. I told her I’ve heard of people getting it within a few days online. But her answer didn’t change.
