Hi everyone,

So I’m planning to be in Thailand for a month, 2 weeks vacation and the other 2 weeks working remotely. I would like some clarification that I would need the DTV to work for those 2 weeks? The DTV seemed pretty overkill for just the 2 weeks I plan to work. Any insight is much appreciated. Also thank you in advance!

Does anyone know about the ‘Safe Entry’ visa system? It’s where you pay a visa agency to ensure that when you enter Thailand by air, you’re guaranteed a visa on arrival or visa exemption.

The agency claims it’s a legitimate process – you still go through immigration as normal, but they say you’d be directed to a different, fast-track counter.

Is this a scam, or is it a legitimate service? Has anyone had experience with it?

Just probably a silly question, but I'm travelling to Bangkok next week for 10 days holiday. Travelling on Aussie passport. Do I require an E visa before arrival or can I just get visa on arrival? Thank you.

Need advise, My husband and I hold Non-O and Non-B visas in Thailand, respectively, but our baby's Non-O visa isn't ready yet. We are leaving for vacation in a week, and her Australian passport allows her to enter Japan with a visa on arrival.

Can we travel to Japan and then return to Thailand, with her entering on a visa on arrival? She doesn't currently hold any visa, as she was born in Thailand.

Hi! Has any Myanmar nationals successfully applied for a DTV from Taipei? Is Taiwan still visa on arrival for Myanmar nationals? I went to the Taiwan Embassy in Bangkok and they told me I had to apply for a visa but I have read online its visa on arrival. Would be great to know as deciding where to apply for the DTV from.

I know that currently we can get a 60 day visa on arrival. Assuming that they change that back to a 30 day stamp …if I were to fly into Thailand and get the visa on arrival, extend it for 30 days….leave Thailand for a month and return to do the same thing again, do you think this would lead to a problem with immigration? The rest of the year I would be outside of Thailand exploring other countries. I would like to be in Thailand for those specific months (April May, July, August) because it’s low season.

Hi, May I check if I did not get the stamp on arrival at the Hanoi airport, where I can request for this stamp electronically?

I am planning to visit Cambodia to apply for a DTV. Do American citizens need a visa to enter the country, or can I obtain it upon arrival?

If you’re planning to travel to Vietnam for DTV, don’t forget to check if you need a visa for Vietnam (especially if you’re from the USA, Australia, the UK, Switzerland, etc.).

I missed my flight today because of this—the airline couldn’t let me check in! 😆
