Hello,

We would love to move to Thailand for 8-12 months with our 2 kids ( 7&10) I have a remote job, however we do not have savings for a DVT visa. Is there any other way to stay in Thailand for that long? Is it easy to extend a 60 days visa. We are from the UK and the cost of living is really getting to us as a family. We would love to give our boys some freedom and explore Asia. Thanks for all your help and advice!

I am pakistani i need Thailand Visit visa i want to travel with my family for tourism my wife hold indonesian passport so she dont need visa to enter. Can anyone help us

Dear mods and members,

I have a question regarding re-entry permits. How "fixed" is the return date? I may have to travel to Europe soon for family reasons and I'm unsure as to how long I will be staying. If I fill in a certain return date, but then end up travelling back earlier/later, will I have any issues at immigration upon arrival? Thank you very much for your replies!

Pakistan PP: entered from DMK with family. Handed over all passports, printed visa. TDAC filled with 2 months for out of country flight. No questions asked, stamped for 6 months.

My family and I are coming to Koh Samui for a 6-month stay. What's the recommended type of medical insurance? Is travel insurance or a local/domestic plan better for a long-term trip? We need coverage for sickness and emergencies. Appreciate the advice!

Visa Run Advice Needed for Mom & Toddler (Chiang Mai)

For context:

• US passport holders

• Received 60-day exemption on arrival + paid for 30-day extensions already.

Hi everyone, I’m hoping for some advice on doing a visa run with my toddler.

This will be my first (and only) visa run before applying for the DTV at the end of the year. I’m trying to figure out what’s most practical with a little one:

• Should we just fly out, stay overnight (maybe one or two nights), then fly back in?

• Or would it be better to go with one of the border run companies/private van services that handle everything in a same-day trip?

Any recommendations or tips would be greatly appreciated — especially from other parents who’ve done this with kids.

Thanks in advance 😊

Hello everyone, does anyone have current experience, duration, tips for a Border Run to Laos? With family and car/car either to chong mek or mukdahan. Base was Non -O Visa 150 days incl. Overtime . For a special reason, I have to extend it again. Thanks for the helpful answers.

Hallo zusammen, hat jemand aktuelle Erfahrungen, Dauer, Tips für einen Border Run nach Laos? Mit Familie und Auto/ PKW entweder nach Chong Mek oder Mukdahan. Basis war Non -O Visa 150 Tage incl. Verlängerung . Aus besonderem Grund muss ich nochmals verlängern. Danke für hilfreiche Antworten.

I have a DTV visa and so does my husband. We applied for my daughter as dependent for me but for some reason it's came back as my husband. Can I still travel alone with her in and out of Thailand? Is there any other problems I might face it not being on my visa? It was all my information that was supplied for visa. We do not share the same last name.

We entered Thailand yesterday for the first time with DTV. My husband, my 3 years old son and I. Very simple and fast, no questions asked.

Good day!* We are planning to travel to Thailand for about 2months every year. We are a family of 4 (2 adults and 2 toddlers) we are digital nomads and will be doing online teaching during our holiday. Will the DTV visa be best for us? Feels like a big hassle for 2 months😅 We are South Africans!*

Thank you!
