Will the new Foreign Affairs minister maintain the integrity of the Digital Nomad Visa (DTV) in Thailand?

@Greg *******

yes essentially what my neighbor is saying regarding the numbers as well. I think immigration are doing a lot of work in the background modernizing their systems, so maybe we will get official figures soon enough.

I hope it's here to stay as I'm on the DTV myself (from August last year)

@Greg *******

can you point me towards the official source mate, I've struggled to find it. My figures are from a neighbor who works at immigration here in Chiang Mai.

DTV holders are here for 5 years so over that time they would spend more than the average tourist.

people have successfully applied for the DTV. That's a great number, and a great amount of money coming into Thailand.

Overall the DTV has been successful so I don't think it will be removed entirely. A couple of tweaks may occur, but current DTV holders won't be impacted.

How can I find a reliable agent to assist with my 90-day report in Chiang Mai?

You can always just ask the landlord for the log on details and do the TM30 yourself if you're in a longer term rental, if it works for the owner. I come and go to Singapore a lot so to reduce the burden on my landlord I just do them myself now.

Can you extend a DTV visa at Central Festival Chiang Mai?

@Ben ************

they might not actually offer it as a service at the Central festival office. My understanding is there's a couple of other immigration related services you can only get done at the airport branch.
