Hello any good

Immigration lawyer?

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.

I was denied entry into Thailand once last April due to visa runs. But was eventually able to get in a few days later. I then left two months later and haven’t been back since. I’m planning to go back in April making it 1 year since I was denied and about 10 months since I was last there. What are the chances I am denied entry again? I’ll only stay for 55 days with return ticket, funds, and accommodations. But I’m flying from the States and I don’t want to be turned around and sent back. Should I just go with an agency that will get me in? Or is a year enough time.

This is worth a watch. I'm not too worried about DTV but definitely food for thought.

I was in the UK for 5 months and arrived on a METV in September. Today I landed in Bangkok from Cambodia. I was stopped at immigration and taken into a side office. An interview then took place asking why I was coming in to Thailand so much. I pointed out that I had a METV, but they said I need a retirement visa and shouldn't be using the METV. They then asked to see proof of funds. Luckily I had a lot of baht on me. I was then told that I wouldn't be able to use my visa again even though it has nearly 2 months before it expires. This surely begs the question, what's the point of this visa if they can suddenly tell you it's no longer valid?

What are the chances I get rejected at immigration with no DTV?

In the last 6 months I've stayed first stay 45 days in Thailand and the doing a border run to KL for 5 days.

Then 58 days back in Thailand and then a 5 day border run again.

Then another 67 days with an extension at immigration.

I'm flying back on 14th January, booked flights and accomodation already. Everything is already booked, too late to apply for DTV and only realized now how strict they are with this type of behaviour so I'm probably guessing I will get denied access.

Any thoughts on this situation? Thanks!

Thanks for all good advice previously

Any one of us tourists experienced any denial of entry when arriving from Phom Penh by air. South Africa passport and this will be my 4 th entry in 12 months , but only ever stayed between 10 and 20 days

Not sure if a METV would help .....

Appreciate any current experience

Thanks

any one known about this?

Can i go another way used Airport

anybody know?

i have thai e visa.

Has anyone been denied entry into Thailand with a DTV visa?

I did two stints earlier in the year on visa free exemption both were extended by 30 days so I stayed all up just under 180days. I’ve been out of Thailand and back in my home country for 4 months.

I am coming back into Thailand next week also with a return flight booked back to my home country booked in 2 and half months. I have applied for a tourist visa and it has been accepted should I be worried with the recent visa updates ?
