If you don't stay 90 you don't have to report to my understanding.

I'm going for the DTV also the SETV was just a quick solid bridge to the DTV, plus makes you look better progressing visas , no more SETV no more Visa exempt. Not even going to attempt it.

@Randy *******

its more than that bro, 1. I had a visa, they pre vet you and (deem you worthy before hand) 2. I have a Taiwan resident card and all of my history is to and from Taiwan, 3. I had all my fuckn ducks in a row before hand and undeniably nationality makes a difference scrutiny wise, they don't admit to favoritism but it exist, and the American passport/Taiwan resident card combo makes me look way more legit. On paper only at first glance my 6 entries and accumulated 181 days looks bad but if you consider everything, I still fit in the low risk percentage of people, note: No overstays, No full stays even though allowed 60, no extensions, no border runs , nothing, and flying to and from Taiwan where I legally reside not just bouncing visa free around Asia (those tickets are not cheap, def not visa run friendly).

@Jordan ****

I spent 181 , 6 visa exempt entries and I just came back 7th time 2025 (but on an SETV) and I had a 53 day break outside Thailand. I was asked nothing. I handed the visa, outbound and Taiwan resident card with my passport smooth, printed , organized and ready , I could tell by body language she respected, that I respected it regardless of my visa exempt history. note: I've only ever entered DMK , people always say do the opposite but no, I am going to do what I was successful with and DMK has been as smooth as it gets

If you border bounce with DTV you'll get back in but multiple visa exempt border bounces are now almost gaurenteed to give you issues.

No because that's absolutely unrealistic.

@Nick *****

That sounds toxic bro I know they don't refund for the rejected visa application, but PLEASE tell me your school/gym atleast was considerate enough to refund you? it's already disheartening to get the visa rejected let alone also lose money/time/effort.
