Hey everyone!

I would apply for a METV-Visa for 5-month stay in Thailand at the embassy in Vienna.

They want a return ticket. Is this the "final" Returnticket to Austria at the end or do I need also the tickets to other countries in advance, as it is necessary to leave Thailand every two month withbthis ticket...

Thank you......

Today I got the approval for the 90-day Non-O (retirement). Thanks again to all who helped with my previous questions. One more: it says it is valid until August 30. Am I correct in thinking this means I need to enter the country by that date, and I will still have 90 days after arrival?

Hey all...quick question. Once I'm approved for my DTV, is there a time frame that I need to enter Thailand? I.e. within 4 weeks?

I assume not and the 5 years just starts? Basically, I'm going to be in Hanoi and was gonna just do it then but I probably wont be back in Thailand for a few months.

Thanks for any info!

I got a DTV (Destination Thailand Visa) about two weeks ago and had planned to fly to Thailand next week. Unfortunately, it looks like I won’t be able to make the trip.

With a regular tourist visa, you usually have to enter the country within 3 months — but this one says “valid from May 10 until…” and I’m not sure what that means exactly in terms of deadlines.

Does anyone know if my visa will become invalid if I don’t enter Thailand within those 3 months? Would appreciate any insight. 🙏

Do I have to use the visa right away can I use it after 1 year or longer to go ? Would it cause any issues ?

Thanks .

I was issued a DTV on the 13th of May with the intention of entering Thailand (and starting the Muay Thai course for which it is intended) in late June.

However, due to family concerns, my plans have changed and I may not be able to enter Thailand until late August. Even though the visa doesn’t explicitly say so, I’m worried that this may cause it to be nullified as it is more than 90 days from the date of issue.

Should I be worried about this? Many thanks.

Hey folks,

I got my DTV, but the note in remarks is wrong, it says in Thai, Passport expires 7 Dec 2029. But my passport actually will expire 27th.

Could this be an issue? Should I contact the embassy to fix it?

Hi everyone!

I’m currently in Vietnam and will applie for the DTV Visa. I’ll be flying to Germany soon for about three months, and the Muay Thai school I’m in contact with recommended applying for the visa here in Vietnam.

If my application gets approved while I’m still here, how much time do I have to actually enter Thailand before the visa becomes invalid? Is there any limit?

Would really appreciate any insights — thanks a lot in advance! 🙏
