I am filling the DTV application form and not sure how to fill the duration of stay. I plan to stay at least 1 year but the visa only allows up to 180 days per entry. Should I limit the number of days to 180 or would be fine if the number of days is much longer? Also there is a section to add flight numbers. I'm not booking flights until the visa is granted. Any help/suggestion on how to fill this sections is really appreciated. Many thanks.
Hi, I got a question for the accommodation info in Thailand.
We plan to get DTV first, then stay at a hotel for 1 month, during that time and we'll find and sign a 1 year condo contract.
So I guess we'll have to put the 1 month hotel info. Duration of stay (Days) we put 30 days.
But our actual duration of stay (Days) is743 day(s). Could anyone help with what to put in the form? Or what should we do to streamline the process based on our plan?
Validity of Visa: When you are issued a Non-O visa (single entry), it's usually valid for 90 days from the date of issue. This means you must enter Thailand within those 90 days.
Duration of Stay: When you enter Thailand using that visa, you will be granted a 90-day stay, regardless of how many days are left before the visa expires.
Example:
Visa issued: 1 July
Visa valid until: 28 September (90 days later)
You enter Thailand: 27 September
Your stamp at immigration: 90 days from 27 September → so, until 25 December
✅ Key point: The validity period is only about how long you have to use the visa to enter. Once you're in, the 90-day stay starts from your date of entry.
I have a questions for those who have applied in Jakarta. It says on the website it can take up to 10 days. If I have only one week time in Jakarta can I fly out and fly in again one week later or will they keep my passport?
This is a question for anyone who has applied through Taipei.
When filling out the application form for visa, I am unsure on what to write in certain boxes so would love some help from someone who has been successful in the process.
I.D No: (I thought this might be passport number but they ask for that too, so unsure what this is)
Purpose of visit to Thailand: (I was thinking about ticking “other” and writing DTV?)
Proposed duration of stay in Thailand: (6 months? 5 years? Again, unsure what is best to say)
And finally: Place of stay in Thailand: (do I just write the address of a random hotel? Because it certainly won’t be the place I’ll be staying for long, but maybe for the first week)
Is it true that if I get DTV and not use 180 days, let’s say only 150 days and then come back to my country and reenter Thailand next calendar year clock starts counting again? If yes this can be done through whole validity of the visa (5 years)?
