Hi guys.

I was living in Thailand for 3 yrs on a work permit that ended late March.

I have dual nationality and left Thailand on the passport that my work permit was on.

I have returned early April on my other passport, Reason for changing passports was simply because my other one was full.

I will be leaving Thailand in the next few days to apply for my DTV.

Has anyone had any experience with changing passports etc, just worrying that it might look suspicious even though Thai immigration had no issues with it.

HELP❗️

Hi, I’m filling out the Digital Thailand Arrival Card (DTAC), but my passport only has a family name—no first name. The form won’t accept symbols like "-" and only allows letters. And filling in first name is compulsory. Has anyone dealt with this before or know what I should do? Any help is appreciated! Thank you.

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?

My 10 year old daughter just got a new passport. Her current non-imm (O) visa expires 10th July. We are departing Thailand permanently end of June.

Does she need to get her visa stamps transferred to new passport or ok to just exit Thailand showing both passports?

My DTV visa request was denied at washington DC royal thai embassy because “the information in the form didn’t match my passport”. They wouldn’t give me any details other than that as far as what didn’t match. I checked everything muliple times.

One of the questions on the form is “city of birth”. I put the city but my passport only says “California, USA”. Has anyone been denied for this before and for the next time should I put California for that question so it matches my passport?

Hey guys! I applied for TWO DTV visas one for me the other for my husband. His was rejected bc it says his passport exp date info doesn’t match the application’s exp date???? This is something that can obviously be edited. They just said REJECTED with no explanation.

Do you think I could talk to someone there or does this mean I’ve lost $400 and have to re-do his? I’m so confused help if anyone knows what I should do . Thank you in advance 🙏🏼

Does anyone know if you are running out of pages in your passport which your dtv visa is in, can you use another passport to enter or get the visa re issued into the new visa?

What do you fill in at "place of issue"? Most passports or maybe all of them are using the term "authority" for the issuing authority. My German passport lists the city and the mayor as the issuing authority. I googled other passports online, and many don't even list the city name, just the issuing authority. So what did you enter here? Just the country where the passport was issued, or did you copy exactly what's listed under "Authority" in your passport?
