Good. Ranong does perform a lot of checks before letting you out. They do warn you about the

Baht cash requirement.

@Carlton *******
Of course not. They don't care. BTW did you go via Ranong? If so, did officials there hassle you? They're known for asking for

Baht, accommodation proof etc.

Second 90 day report is not needed if you're leaving the country anyway.

They have changed. You just haven't read the news. It's been a big news story in recent weeks. The USD 80,000 income requirement is gone. Period.

@John *********
There has been changes. They announced it recently. It's about wealth and assets now not income. Period.

@John *********
No, all of them have had this requirement removed. It's now about how much you have in assets, rather than income.

You don't even need 80K USD for the LTR visa anymore and it was never a requirement for the DTV. If it were, many folk wouldn't qualify for it.

The DTV is better than a multiple entry tourist visa. I don't think anyone is really upset by a DTV. They're more likely to scrutinize certain people for having been on visa exempt or tourist visa entries.
