Recently came back on my DTV at BKK airport. No issues, I gave my DTV paper to the immigration officer, no questions nothing asked. Stamped back in for 6 months!

Hi can anyone tell me if I can pay at Bangkok Airport for a rentry visa on my retirement visa?

Came into Bangkok airport today, had my DTV printed and my TDAC. Gave both documents and my passport, no questions just a smile from the immigration officer and stamped within 2 mins. Not everybody is being questioned at immigration for those worrying about it.

Coming into Thailand soon with an approved DTV. I hear CMX is a bit more complicated than BKK.

Has anyone come in recently into Thailand and was questioned? If so, which airport did you come into?

(I also used to be on an ED visa and spent a lot of time in Thailand)

Ok, today l traveled from London to Bangkok direct with Thai Airways TG 917. Flight touchdown 14.55. l exited the plane 15.05, l cleared customs waited at carousel to pick my luggage, got in Mike Taxi arrived at Travelodge Pattaya at exactly 5pm. Now 2 hours from touchdown to hotel in Pattaya must be a record, or am l wrong.

I have just flew from Bangkok to Hanoi Vietnam a couple days ago, I am in the middle of doing my application form on line, it’s asking me for the last port of embarkation. What do I write here ? I will be flying back if approved from Hanoi to Bangkok.

Does anyone know if Bangkok will ever start doing auto gates for arrivals for international passengers?

Just arrived in Thailand with the New Arrival Card. Make sure to fill it out before hand to avoid delay. Also there is a brand new Satelite Extension to the Main terminal and you take a train to get to the immigration hall. I didnt even know there was a new arrival area like that. Its very modern and efficient. It will expand BKK passenger volume from 45M passengers per year to 60M passengers per year.

Hey long time travellers... Sorry if this is a dumb question, but Asia is weird sometimes.

I've got a long layover coming up in bkk. It is just from my arrival until my commuter flight home to the north. In the states I know I can just go to the counter and ask for a seat on an earlier flight (these are seldom full). Does that concept exist in Thailand?

🌼First Entry on DTV as 🇵🇰 Pakistani approved from Islamabad Embassy: 🌼

Entered from Bangkok Airport with flight in and out, hotel booking of 3 days and flight out was to Bali (not Pakistan). Bali I hold a valid 1 yr visa for.

I wasn’t asked much except how long will I be staying and what’s my purpose. (i had all docs prepped just in case).

People next to me on visa exemption got asked more Qs tbh.

Visa Officer was happy and stamped me in for 6 months 😊

There was no line at BKK airport, I was the only one in my queue.

PS: Thai Airways official in Bali (where I was leaving from) asked me the most questions, printed out my DTV on their colored printer and gave it to me at the boarding gate with something written in small letters (might be an airline sign off or sth) but anyway Thai airways knew fully well about DTV and what’s required and were thorough in their questioning.

Overall 10/10 Experience and made me happy to be entering the Kingdom on a positive note 😊
