Do UK nationals with a valid DTV need to complete a new TDAC for entry into Thailand each time?

Brian ********

Yes. Why not.

I do it for other places I go, such as Singapore.

@Philip *********

Do you mean that they only accept QR, or only QR and Cash? I’ve never come across anywhere that QR only, so kinda curious.

@Ashley *******

yes that’s changed. You can get data only or phone number and data. We used Airalo 7 months ago and it was available then. Used ByteSim a few days ago, to carry me over for data as we had ISP issues at condo.

ByteSim app, Airalo, etc.

What is the process for leaving and re-entering Thailand with a DTV visa at BKK airport?

Brian ********

Leaving - scanned my passport electronically and that was it.

Arrival - provided my visa document and passport to IO - asked to scan my biometrics again. Smiled and waved me thru. I was the only one who spoke during the process, hello and thank you In Thai.

Do my husband and I both need £11k in our bank accounts to apply for a Thailand DTV visa?

Brian ********

Yes - but you can spend it when you get here - as long as you are doing border re-entries rather than extensions.

I had a 3 disc ACDF, in B Intl Hospital, honestly was best decision I’ve ever made. Saw me within 3 days and operated within 4. If you have any questions let me know.

What should I expect during my entry into Thailand with a DTV visa?

Brian ********

Had my second DTV entry today. 5 day gap after being in Thailand for 5 and a half months.

Glanced at my phone boarding pass.

Carefully stamped my passport - so the curves lined up with the previous stamp, smiled and waved me through.

Zero questions. Just smiles when I said hello and thank you.

Another 6 months approved.

Will I have to pay extra taxes in Thailand on my income transferred from abroad if I stay for more than 180 days?

Brian ********

depends on the terms of that specific DTA. My DTA, requires the difference between my home and Thai taxes to be paid, unless it falls into certain groups, which sadly I don’t.
