Will the DTV be affected by the current political situation in Thailand?

Greg ********

Anonymous participant 456 That is the most likely scenario. They do not need any law changes. They can apply stricter guidelines within the current structure if they wished to. No evidence of thst right now though.

FUD (Fear, Uncertainty & Doubt) Marketing. Not the most sophisticated. The DTV will not be on any politicians or parties political agenda right now. I have not heard the DTV mentioned by a politician since the PM who introduced it 11 months ago.

@Andi **********

Exactly. They do not have to ask for the full initial application pack. They could ask a couple of things to prove people still qualify for the Visa. 1) Money 2) ongoing activity either workaytion of soft power. It is not all or nothing.

If Embassies are asking then maybe Immigration will ask at entry points. They are the official gatekeepers after all. Easy enough to ask for booked courses and paid invoices?

@Dnatjugweme ***********

Well if it looks like a complaint might be forthcoming it would be passed upstairs. The Head of Consular maybe. Ambassadors do not like formal complaints about embassies. DM me if you want to ask how I know :-)
