Hello everyone.

I have spent the last 6 months travelling around Thailand on 2 x 60 days visa exempt and 2 x 30 day extensions. I'm now planning to leave Thailand to apply for the DTV from a third country.

I usually work online but have NOT been doing so from Thailand as that's obviously against the rules and I was taking a break.

My question is, will the 6 months I've spent here make it more likely my DTV application be denied? Will the embassy assume I have been living/working here on a tourist visa? Has anyone had any problems like this?

I have the funds needed, is this sufficient to be accepted?

Many thanks

Has anyone tried using "My THAI Visa" agent for Dtv?

For those who said I can apply on my own, I do not qualify. I have no funds in bank in any country. No income. No job. . No business.

I have seen a post that someone with METV didn't get granted DTV. I'm on multiple entry ED visa rn but I'm now in combodia waiting for DTV result tomorrow. I'm just worried although I have a Cancellation Letter from university. What do you guys think? 🫠

Hi friends! So stoked to have the DTV visa! Question for the group: I arrived the other day and this is what my stamp looks like. I understand the rule about leaving every 180 days, I was just surprised this was the format for the stamp. I asked the officer if it was good for five years, and he said yes, and he had given me the first 180 days. Yet, I’ve seen other people with a full page sticker visa that says 5 years. Am I cool? Do others have this same stamp? Or should I be concerned? Thanks for your thoughts!

I’m currently in Canada and need to renew my Thai drivers license to get credit for my driving history when applying for a new Canadian driver’s license. Anyone know of a way to do that without being in Thailand?

Has the government ever canceled a visa option?

Is there a likely hood this could happen with the DTV?

🙏
