I have a question about the reporting of the TM30. Been searching info about this in other post but i cant find something similar to my situation.

I will be coming into Thailand for the first time since i acquired my DTV visa last early this month but it will only be for 2 days. But will be back again in a month's time.

I will be staying at an Airbnb for the 2 nights and wondering how would the TM30 reporting work in this case?

Any help or advice is appreciated

Anybody know how things work with the burning season if you’re DTV in Chiang Mai?

Like that air is seriously hazardous.

Is there anyway to spend those months in a different part of Thailand or are you just doomed to lung damage?

is the re-entry permit for calendar year or through end of current visa?

Hi I arrived via Air to Thailand and got a 60 day visa if I go over to Cambodia will I get another 60 visa stamp or just 30 days thanks any info appropriated

It’s not directly the DTV, but I just want to share my experience.

I got my DTV, it got stamped as usual for six months, as I had already had a thai driving license, I want to renew which you have to do after two years.

After two years, you get normally five years driving license.

So I went to the "Songkhla Provincial Land Transport Office HatYai” to renew.

After checking with a lot of employers they called the immigration where my certificate of residence was from, and they confirmed my Visa is only valid for six months.

So I got only the license for another two years instead of five because nobody knows what’s going on with the DTV 🤣

But one thing I have to say, all people that are very friendly and helpful, not like at the provincial land transport office in PhangNga.

Hello everyone 🙏

I just want to know if the ETA for Thailand is aktiv already? I heard some updates last december, they gonna launch this Electronic Travel Authorization (ETA) in january 2025. Since my wife and I gonna fly to Thailand on the 12.february, is there anything we need to fill out before entering the country?

We won’t have any Visa on arrival so that’s why.

Thank you for the efforts and advices in advance 🙏

Do I still need to buy a round trip tickets with an approved DTV visa? TIA!

Has the government still not confirmed the difference between getting the "Workcation" and the "Soft Power" versions of the DTV? If someone gets a DTV for a business in 3 years will they need to show its still operating or will Soft Power DTV holders need to show they are still enrolled in a Soft Power activity down the line? If the registration part is different but everyone gets the same visa then wouldn't everyone just get the Soft Power version because its easier if you dont have to prove you still do the Soft Power?

I'm in Thailand on a 12-month retirement visa but travel overseas about half of the time. Given that I foresee my travel pattern continuing for the foreseeable future and that I am unlikely to remain in Thailand for more than 60 consecutive days, is it even necessary to renew my retirement visa? If I can get a 60-day entry stamp every time I enter Thailand, I would be tempted to just let my retirement visa expire.

I have 3 questions on the DTV Visa.

1. Can you have a joint bank account with the 30k USD/1M Baht when you apply for the DTV visa? I don't want to give my wife 15k :)

2. Can you get a bank account in Thailand with a DTV visa? I have read you can get one in Pattaya.

3. Is the requirement of a 180 stay mean, you need to leave Thailand and come back every 180 days for up to the 5 years? Basically a run for the border every 6 months...

DTV visa is my best option. I don't have a pension or any passive income yet to apply for the other visa options.
