Just entered suvarnabhumi for the first time on DTV workcation. I have a extensive history of stays with tourist visas and exempts previously, since I have spent the cold months of Sweden in Thailand since 2015.
I showed my DTV printout, stamped in under a minute. Did not even need to show my TDAC. It was the smoothest entry ever for me. Thank you Thailand for this great visa! 🙏
Recent experience entering on my DTV visa 3rd entry. I was returning from Vientiane Laos by land before flying from Udon Thani Airport. During my land crossing I was asked to go to the back and see the supervisor. No questions about purpose of my trip just looked through passport and sent back. I walked to the back room sat down handed the supervisor my passport. He looked quickly and said do you have a visa? I said yes it's in my passport. Apparently both him and the first immigration missed the physical copy of my DTV inside my passport. I asked him to hand me my passport opened and showed him the DTV. He took my passport back stamped me and told me have a good trip. Zero questions about current activities or purpose of visit. I had my TDAC done as well and they didn't ask for my QR code. So all in all if they had seen my visa most likely would have just waved me in. Next time I'll just make sure my passport is open to the DTV page not my bio data page when I hand it to them.
I want to personally thank everyone in this group for your immensely useful and compassionate support and guidance throughout this tedious last few weeks of visa adventure lol. Just flew back into Thailand,
Immigration: "how long will you be staying on Thailand "
Me: hands over dtv visa email
Immigration: puts stamp on passport
Loving this! So nice to hear "Ka" and "kup" again lol
Hey, can you guys share your experience of entering on dtv? Just saw in a dtv group there have been instances of unwanted srutinization while entering on the dtv? Someone said they were asked to show all the docs, they used while applying. This would be very inconvenient given some of us applied physically and don't have all the docs handy.
Approved in hcmc about 2 weeks ago, landed in bkk, no questions asked. Personally, I don't worry about any questions on future entries. I'm pretty sure Muay Thai training will become a habit and I'll continue the activity that gave me the DTV.
I have received my DTV visa through email, I know it should be printed off which I have done, however my printer is having problems and only doing black and white copies.
Will black and white suffice or should it be full colour?
Has anyone entered on their DTV for the first time and not printed it? Can it be shown on your phone (many have said they can see it on their computer system anyway)?
I have got my DTV! Will post separately about the process in case it helps others.
Just a little question -- I'm now thinking of going to Thailand later (perhaps even 2 months later) than the start date I put on my visa application. Is this allowed? Could I run into trouble if I arrive at Bangkok airport much later than the start date on the visa (& the date of the flight I specified)?
