Can anyone recommend a reasonably priced accredited Muay Thai Gym in Thailand. I’ll be khon Kaen area. For the DTV do you actually have attend the course or just pay the money?

Hi. I have a rather urgent question. I'm already on DTV under workcation. I'm an employee for a US company. So my application that I submitted to the Thai Embassy included my employment contract and also the authorization letter from my boss. And so Thailand therefore has the name of the company I work for on record. Having worked in Thailand as an employee of a US company, could the Thai Revenue Department argue that the company has a Permanent Establishment (PE) in Thailand and therefore will want to go after them for payment of any Thai corporate income taxes?

Hi guys is anyone here knows about the new roles for DTV holders ? , after the 180 days we can do border run or we must go by air ?

I just watched a YouTube video posted today from a visa agent in Pattaya, he stated that a maximum of 2 visa exempt entries in 1 calendar year into Thailand is law now and that anyone trying to re-enter more than twice on visa exempt in 1 calendar year will be refused entry at immigration, regardless, even if you have never applied for an extension or done border bounces before.

My friend is due to arrive from Australia on Wednesday, he has done 2 visa exempt entries this year and has always returned to Australia after each visit, his last entry in to Thailand was August this year.

Will he be denied entry this time, he is applying for a tourist visa today after hearing this news but he may not receive the visa in time for his departure flight from Australia this Wednesday?

Hi! Last December I arrived to Thailand and left for a 3 week long trip to Cambodia before exceeding the 60 days, around the early days of February. I came back to Bangkok at the end of February. Stayed until the end of April, then returned to Hungary, my home country.

I travelled back to Thailand at the end of September (so I spent 5 months outside of the country) and will fly to Vietnam this weekend. I have never exceeded the 60 days before leaving and never had a visa extension. I plan returning to Thailand in the middle of December. Should I worry about getting rejected and start thinking about applying for a visa instead of getting the usual stamp at arrival?

Quick question, does the 90 day reporting rule apply for the DTV VISA if you're in the country for more than 90 days? Also can it be done online or do I have to go to the immigration off office? I had a look online it the visa it applies all other visa except DTV? Maybe the site I was reading hasn't updated it for the DTV VISA because it is fairly new.

If you have the DTV for Thai language lessons, how long are you allowed to be out of the country? For example, if we wanted to travel somewhere in Asia for a couple of weeks, would that be allowed? I haven't found any information on this.

I entered Thailand yesterday for the fourth time since May under visa exempt. No questions asked. Stamped in.

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.

A few visa run agencies have stopped border runs (even for dtv holders) from koh phangan koh samui and koh tao. Anyone else experience anything similar?
