Applied in Saigon with House of Taste soft power, after 2 additional documents, my visa was rejected with no explanation, anyone had similar experiences? I did not use their visa support, will I get refund from the school? Will I still be able to enter Thailnad this year after one time entry with visa exemption.

Proof of accommodation for immigration purposes

Hello,

I will arrive in Bangkok on the morning of January 7. I only have proof of accommodation for the first 7 days, although I will be staying for one month. Do I need to provide accommodation proof for the entire duration of my stay?

it doesnt matter what size your print your DTV : A4 or compact passport size like me 😆. when it printed, it would help the immigratipn staff to recognize and check into the system. Some people dont print it out also no problem. As long as you got your DTV and welcome to Thailand, buddy! 😍🇹🇭

I just want to confirm that the DTV 5-year period begins on the date the visa is granted, rather than when I actually enter Thailand?

Can anyone enter Thailand with the DTV visa online just by showing the visa on their cell phone or do they only accept the printed visa?

I'm not trying to do an extension or border bounce. My plan has always been to go from Bangkok over to Siem Reap and stay there for a month.

I have read several posts recently about the possibilty and/or need to provide 'proof of departure' out of Thailand, either to an air carrier heading towards Thailand or to the customs and immigration agents upon entry into the country.

There have been mentions of booking a 'real', cheap, one-way ticket out of the country or using the Onward Ticket app. One response mentioned that a bus doesn't count because it only takes you to the border. Since I am leaving the day after Christmas, cheap airfare wasn't an option.

Does my full-transit one-way Giant Ibis ticket from Bangkok to Siem Reap work as proof? I'm spending a month there in Cambodia before coming back to Bangkok for 6 weeks then on to Vietnam for three months.

Received my Thai OX retirement visa in Nov 23

Entered Thailand yesterday for the first time. Went to immigration counter (Bangkok) and was escorted to another area for processing. Stamped in for 5 years. Very efficient

Hello everyone, first of all thanks to the admins and the people from the group, because help very much.

Now i have a question....

My last 4 visa application was in Vientiane (last in December 2018, by ground from Udon Thani) in March of 2019 finish my visa after the extension and i'm thinking to apply again in Vientiane doing another visarun.

But i read someone is having problems after many visa extensions in the same place and now have the new online service in Vientiane, and i'm a bit worried, because maybe my entrance will be denied in march after my visa run.

Someone have some experience and can give me some advice?

Because the thing is i like go to Vientiane and i don't wanna visit another country, because i have several friends there and i like go to visit and pass some days there, and escape of the crazy and dirty Bangkok.

About my nationality, i'm Spanish.

Thanks in advance.
