Strange experience at DMK airport,

I’m on DTV remote work, went on a 5 day trip to Vietnam (so called border bounce, instead of the documentation nightmare in immigration extension).

I come to the counter, and the following:

Officer- “how many days you plan to stay?”

Me - “around 90/120 days, still not sure.”

Officer - looks at me with strange look.

Me - I thought he think I’m tourist visa so I mention “I’m on DTV visa.”

Officer - “visa in nothing, I’m decide if you come or go. Where you go after Thailand”

Me - I have a booked trip to Hong Kong and then Dubai.

Officer - you don’t go home country? You don’t miss your mom or dad?

Me - not sure, I’m digital nomad, I travel and work on laptop.

Idk why I got the “tourist on 7th attempt to visa run” treatment while I do have the proper visa and everything is legit. I guess officer had sudden urge to flex he’s the boss?

Should I start considering elite visa? I do live in Thailand, have Gf, 4 cats, car - kinda bummer

We plan to get our insurance this evening! Flying from London to BKK in January. But hopefully travel for 6 months in other countries. What insurance have other people used for this kind of trip? Best prices etc? Starting in Thailand? Thank you 🌍❤️
