Hello All, Just a quick question ? i am on a Non O ret visa, i have just returned from a short trip from UK, with my re-entry stamp, Dose the 90 day reporting start new from the new date of arrival or continual as per the 90days paper clipped in my passport. regards Kell.

Just thinking of my future starting next year visiting Thailand. If I stay 1 month next June then wanted to stay 3 months starting December 26, what visa would I need, if any (from the UK)? I would then plan to return June 27, so basically 2 visits a year

Sorry about the anonymous post I don't usually do it but don't want a certain person bugging me. Done my second entry today at chiang khong and it was smooth asf. Leaving laos he said you only stayed one night but I had my print out to hand and (laminated with dtv print out on one side and soft power document on the other side.a smile and through in 2 mins max. On the thai side exactly the same but took a bit longer as the lady was interested about my cycle touring as I was entering with my touring bike.took about 3 mins max. Showed my dtv but she just passed it back to be with a โคกดีและปลอดภัยเดินทาง.

If you are looking for a way to pull money outside atm or WU

Krungsri bank 200 baht fee off your US Debit and at rate for market. Bring passport quick and easy no ATM fee or foreign atm fee

** Edit just to clarify for the troll of the group Stewart Stuart Cumming a moderator they will only do this if you are wanting to pull over 60000 baht otherwise they will tell you to use ATM.

Sorry I assumed he would have common sense that if you were pulling lower amounts they would tell you to use ATM .. seems I forgot the nature of trolls on the net

I am asking on behalf of my helper from Myanmar as she has just obtained a tourist visa. Her purpose is to take a 5 days course in Thailand. After taking the course, she intends to seek employment there.

Can i know if that is allowed as I will need to ensure that she has obtained proper entry visa to Thailand. She is currently in Singapore and intends to travel from here to Thailand.

I live in Thailand & have a bank account, but I have a friend coming on a DTV visa.

I have heard that you can’t open a bank account on a DTV visa.

So my question is how do people negotiate this?

Access to cash without the fees, scanning to pay & receive payment for items sold?

There may be other benefits of a bank account also, but how are you getting around this?

Hello, I’ve been on a DTV for around 7 months but have now gotten a job opportunity, I’m wondering if anyone has any experience converting the DTV to Non B within Thailand, my lawyer seems to think I need to do a border bounce and come back on visa exempt to then convert it, but I’ve read that you can convert it from a DTV as it’s technically a multiple entry visa… Let me know, thanks.

Hi...currently on a DTV visa but the 180day stay is nearly up. Am planning to go to Vietnam for a 10day break/holiday instead of just doing a "border bounce". Will I have to fill out the online TDAC form before I re-enter Thailand? Or not, because of the DTV?? Thanks.

I already have the DTV but I want to take Thai language courses and get a bank account.

Will I need the the actual ED visa for a bank account, and if so, would i need to cancel my existing DTV? Or can I get the bank account through the language school without the ED visa?

Hi everyone,

First of all, thanks to the group for all the helpful answers you share. I still have two questions — I just got my DTV visa and I plan to spend more than 180 days per year in Thailand to become a tax resident there. My questions are:

If I don’t have a Thai bank account, what exactly is considered “remitted income” to Thailand? Only the money I spend locally? (I’m trying to understand the basis on which I could be taxed.)

Also, the visa limits me to 180 consecutive days in Thailand. If I understand correctly, is a simple border run enough to reset and get another 180 days?

Thanks a lot!
