anyone been thru Krabi with a DTV recently? Is fast track a thing there? If so is it worth paying for

Landed in BKK with my DTV. Used Fast Track because of the horrible experience I had on my last visit. No issues. Glad to be back.

I'm flying into DMK on the 21st on an ED visa. I was sternly warned my last entry in July to get a DTV next time because I had abused the system with short term visas. I had an ED visa in 2022 and have been out of Thailand for 6 months. I'm concerned I may be denied entry and am considering using a fast track service. Any advice is appreciated.

Hi all,

Does anyone have recommendations on fast track service for arrivals at Survarnabhumi airport? There seems to be a few providers that offer the service.

Hi all, I need to get a residence certificate from Chiang Mai Immigration. I have heard this can take 2 weeks as they will only post the certificate to your address- if is this the case, is there any way to fast track it? Thanks 🙏

Hey guys, I’ll arrive Friday around 3pm in BKK airport. As travelling in Economy I won’t have access to the fast track immigration and I’m a little worried about the arrival situation.

Any recent experiences?

How much would be the cheapest fast track immigration? (Just some agency who picks up at the gate and brings me to the fast lane)

Anybody know why the Fast line VIP has been suspended by the DMK airport? I paid $65, noticed it was a company from Barcelona (could not find a Thai company) and received an email after it was approved that the airport suspended the service. Anyone know why and is there a Thai website that provides the Fast track service. Also, they will refund the full amount

Received my DTV Dec 26 in Ha Noi, 5 business days, American Passport

Last night before dinner, I went to a local print shop I have driven by near my Airbnb.

Walked in and Google Translated that I wanted a laminated 4x5 Mini DTV Approval letter, and a printed DTAC arrival. I was able to Apple Airdrop him both the items.

4 minutes later I had my “DTV Passport sized Packet” cost me 20,000 dong.

At dinner I looked for a fast track service. As I just wanted an easy VIP experience and no waiting in super busy immigration lines of the New Year’s Eve rush at Bkk.

Saw a few ranging from 1700-3000+baht.

“My Tour Desk” I found an ad here on Facebook and it was cheaper than most I have seen. So I took a chance. 😜.

Clicked the link, Filled out my basic Info, added my Flight Number and arrival date, and pressed pay.

💵 1700 Baht

10 minutes later I was WhatsApp messaged from My Tour Desk letting me know a “Butler” would meet me at the end of my arrival gate, and could I send a selfie so the butler could recognize me. Easy, Sent

Left Hanoi this morning at 9:30. Arrived Back to BKK at 11:30.

Walked off the plane and up the gangway, I was met at my arrival gate by an awesome energetic Butler. Greeted me and said hello.

I Handed him my Passport Packet. He was mega impressed. 🤣 Said let’s go, follow Me.

We walked to a little bit father gate than the masses and was met by Immigration Guard. He looked at all my stuff briefly, said wow looks great.

He told me to proceed past him and walked around the corner to a private IO booth, with zero people in line, to a bored older IO,

I handed him all my items, I pressed my right hand to the finger print screen. Old guy barely looked upwards towards me.

Stamp Visa, DTV E Visa written in pen. Extra stamp with exit date of June 27th.

He Handed back my passport packet.

Khàawp khun khráp 🙏🏻

I walked around the corner to where I was greeted with my 3rd Butler.

He walked me over to the carousel, waited with me for 20 minutes to get my bag, chatted about life.

Bag finally came off the belt, he snags it and started

Wheeling it away with me in tow. He walked me to Bangkok Air Domestic Departure on the 4th level.

We went over to the Bangkok Air Elite line.

I Handed my passport, cellphone my digital boarding pass to the Agent, she slapped a baggage tag for Samui.

The Butler then walked me over to the Domestic departure Boarding pass area. High Fived Me, at my request and waits until I am past boarding pass Officer Checks.

Pretty seamless and amazing experience for my First DTV arrival stamp of my 5 Years being able to Live in the Kingdom.

Can anyone recommend a good, reliable, honest fast track service at dmk?

Hello all, again. I’m in the USA selling some property so I can put $26,000 USD in a US bank account. Problem is I can’t wait two/three months for the account to “season” in order to apply for a 90-day Non O visa as I planned. It seems my only option is to return to Thailand without a non O and then just hire an agency. The second problem is that from November to July of this year due to extenuating circumstances and lack of knowledge I ended up doing THREE border runs (used an agency).

So I’m pretty sure I wouldn’t be allowed re-entry even though I have no bad marks in passport or even comments from any IO. My question is, can I re-enter the kingdom by using a “fast track” service and then hire an agency to do the magic required for a 90-day Non O visa, bank account, and extension of stay? Or is there an option I am not aware of? Thanks.
