that will not CAUSE the account to be frozen, simply because the visa expired. But they can freeze it for KYC again in the future any time they want. They've already proven that. Hundreds of stories of people who brought everything into the bank to get their account unfrozen only for it to be frozen again

Can I enter Thailand with a Digital Nomad Visa (DTV) using both my old and new passports?

Brandon ************

@Mauro ********

because it's not that easy. Some immigration offices won't do it. And some immigration officers will not accept that to let you into Thailand. The only guaranteed way is to keep both passports.

Is it advisable to use an Airbnb address on my TDAC when entering Thailand?

Brandon ************

The immigration officer cannot see anything you put on the TDAC, they can only see that you did or did not fill out a TDAC. And how would they know an address you put is an AirBNB or not even if they could see it?? They do not have every address in Thailand memorized.

Is the 500,000 THB financial requirement for the DTV visa necessary to maintain during my 5-year stay in Thailand?

Brandon ************

@Julien ***

Don't bother trying to apply for an extension. Immigration wants nothing to do with DTV. They make the extensions nearly impossible to get. For example in Chiang Mai you must show 500,000 baht in a THAI bank account for the extension. Yes, immigration knows you cannot open a Thai bank account with a DTV visa.

When does the extension start when applying for a visa extension in Thailand?

Brandon ************

A tourism extension is added onto the end of a tourism entry stamp. No days are lost by applying early.

Does purchasing a home in Thailand exempt me from showing a minimum bank balance for my visa?

Brandon ************

Absolutely not. The purpose of the bank balance is to show that you have money for an emergency to take care of yourself, so you do not become a drain on the Thai government. Owning property does not make you more able to handle an emergency.

What are the chances of receiving a 30-day or 7-day extension for my visa exemption in Thailand after multiple visits?

Brandon ************

@Ian *********

One is a normal extension that can be converted to other visas, received additional extensions if eligible, etc. The other is not an extension. It's a denial stamp and you MUST leave after 7 days, because there's nothing else that can be done based off of that stamp since it's not an extension.

@Area ************

it does exist. You pay extra money to submit everything online and then you still have to go into the immigration office and bring everything you submitted online. It's a waste of money.

@Ian *********

the 7 day extension is NOT the 7-day extension denied stamp. It's a regular tourism extension that's only valid for an additional 7 days.
