My first DTV experience was a positive one. No questions stamp and go. Flying in from LHR to BKK.

I received this email today. I had applied on August 6, and later submitted the additional documents requested on August 14. Today, I had my interview at the embassy, where I was told to wait for one week. However, when I got home and checked my email, I was surprised to find this message.

Could you please guide me on the next steps? Do I need to visit the embassy again to have the visa sticker placed on my passport, or is this email sufficient? Also, should I keep this document with me for the next five years?

Hi, do I need a pre approval letter for Vietnam entry as a British passport holder?

Can METV get denied at immigration?

Hello everyone, I know immigration is become very strict this year and there are people who got denied with a SETV (single entry tourist visa). Is a METV “stronger” in front of an immigration officer? Can it get denied? For context, I am 19 and can’t apply to DTV because the requirement is 20 yo. Thanks 🙏

I have 2 entries on visa exemption this calendar year with a total of 68 days, but in case they check the “last 12 months” it would be 3 entries with 86 days total in Thailand (all well spaced out). Of course I have never overstayed, maxed my exemption, or abused the system, I just have some free time this year thanks to my university schedule.

I have Italian passport by the way

Hi all — I want to apply for the DTV now, but I won’t be able to enter Thailand for 6–8 months. Has anyone either:

1. applied with a flight dated soon, but entered much later?

2. applied with a flight dated 6–8 months ahead?

Any issues with approval or at immigration when you eventually entered? Thanks!

Hi everyone,

I'm about to apply for DTV. I'm in South Africa but didn't get an entry stamp into my passport as I used an e-gate to scan my passport. Is that a problem?

How do j show that j have 20000 baht , do j need a paper from bank or cash?

My visa have been approve. When I enter Thailand ( or the departure airport) do I have to have exit ticket?

For anyone who has come from yellow fever listed country recently.

Asked lady at counter then and she said still have to do all and they hadnt been advised any differently. Nothing on T.8 page

Hello,

I will be doing a third entry in Thailand in about 3 months this in total, would you recommend getting a safe entry service?

I’ve seen posts of people being rejected all the time here with visa exemptions.

Here is my recent travel history:

• First entry into Thailand: June 5th to July 16th (total: 42 days)

• Trip to Indonesia: July 16th to July 23rd

• Second entry into Thailand: July 23rd to August 13th (total: 21 days)

• Now traveling to the Philippines: August 13th to August 30th

I plan to return to Thailand on August 30th and stay for another 60+30 days, but I’m concerned because it would be my third entry in under three months, even though the total time spent in Thailand is around 63 days.

Thanks!
