If i have to leave Thailand on the 7 of February which is the stamp on my extention and i book flight back to UK on the 8 of February 2am will i have any problems? Thanks

how are recent entry experiences with the soft power cooking option? do they check/ask for attendance or ask other questions? my understanding is that it is not required to attend the class to get the visa.

(I understand the argument of those who say Of course it doesnt make sense to give a 5 year visa with a 6month course that you dont even need to attend at all, but if they decide to offer this visa then it does not matter, because they offer it?)

Thank you

DTV soft power, can I still have online income?

I heard conflicting answers about it and I would like to clarify my doubts.

I am getting DTV through soft power, but I have an online business (website) with a small income (1k euro monthly usually). Am I allowed to keep working on the business even if I got a DTV via soft power?

Thank you

Hi all,

Has anyone has had any experience with the 90 day reporting at the immigration office in Koh Tao? if so, how was the experience?

Many thanks in advance.

I am getting conflicting information on the internet so I would like to hear from those who know. I will be entering Thailand on Saturday with an OA visa and will not be able to reach the island where I will be living until Tuesday. I understand that within 24 hours I must report to the immigration office in the area where I live to file the TM 30 form. Other information specifies that I must file the TM 47 form up to 7 days before the 90 days expire. How exactly should I proceed? Thanks!

January 2026 marks the 180th day of my DTV visa stay. Do I have to leave for a few days and then come back again, or can I extend my stay at the immigration office? Apparently, a lot of changes have been made recently for foreigners.

Hello, my property manager/land lord is giving me push back on completing my TM30. I have indicated that this is required by law to do, but still getting pushback. I have to do my 90 day report next month. Any advice on what I should do.

Thanks in advance

90 Days Report tips.

Hello!!

I must go this week for the first 90 days report to immigration office in Bangkok (I have DTV).

I have the TM30, visa, Arrival Card, passport, stamp.

Please, Any advise? Suggestion? Comment? Does it take too much time?

Thanks a lot.

Bye!!!

DTV question. If a company based in Japan were to hire me to attend events in SE Asia on their behalf, including public appearances in Bangkok, would this be allowed as per DTV guidelines around working in Thailand?

90 day reports with a DTV. I want to share my experience so that others may learn from it.

1. You must do your 90 day report in the province that your TM-30 address is located.

2. You have to do your report in person if you hold a DTV. There are no options for online filing, unless you have done the 6 month extension in country without leaving to reset the visa. I will explain this more below.

I recently needed to do my 2nd 90 day report while holding a DTV in Thailand. I read that after the first report in person you may submit the following reports online. This is true, however the count of reports submitted resets after every new arrival in the country. As a DTV holder, I leave every 6 months for a period of time so I will never have a 2nd 90 day report on one visit into Thailand. The 7 day grace period covers any "tight" timelines on having to do a 2nd 90 day report in 6 months.

I was traveling visiting some friends during my last reporting window and submitted online, only to be rejected. I visited the local immigration facility and it was explained to me that I needed to do the report where I live only. They were very nice and calmed my fears of problems with immigration by helping me understand the 7 day grace period after the 90 days in country that you have to file. I was home before that time was expired so everything worked out fine.

I just wanted to help anyone else that might not have gone through the 90 report process yet. Because of the slight pain of the process in my busy area now that it is high season, I might consider one of those do it for you visa services to file my next 90 day report, if they don't charge too much.
