Why do I keep facing questioning at immigration with my DTV visa in Thailand?

Tommy ********

I said this a few weeks back in another group and all the newbies to Thailand dismissed it.

The DTV is a tourist visa long term. You will keep getting questioned at the border because the immigration see you this way.

Which is better for families moving to Thailand: Hua Hin or Chiang Mai?

Tommy ********

You have to look at whether either are them places are suitable for a large family.

Hua Hin is a retirement town and Chiang Mai is more rural and quiet.

Do they have substantial international schools compared to where you are from? What’s the reason for moving? Will you make more money or is it a move for other reasons?

Can I live in Thailand for 5 years on a DTV visa if I leave every 180 days?

Tommy ********

@Peter **********

It’s not a year old yet. Any changes will come after. There have been more rejections than you think.

Only 20,000 DTV visas approved as of February. Nothing compared to the number of tourists that enter each day, or the amount of work permits approved for expats
