the problem is the proof of the 500.000 THB. For the application to the DTV, any account anywhere in the World is accepted. However for the extension on Immigration, they ask for the 500.000 THB to be in a THAI bank account. Since you cannot even open a Thai bank account on a DTV, this requirement is absurd

I saw it, too. Just in case. My buddy on a DTV, when inquiring about the extension on Immigration Hua Hin was asked for proof of 500.000 THB on a THAI bank account . . so I suspected the OP was asked for just the same

well, I get my 1-year retirement extension on Immigration every other year within 20 minutes, since 17 years. I am willing to tolerate a 10 mi nute delay 😃 but what they are asking from you, is a goddamn riddance. Why does your tolerance reach that far to the point when you watch them pulling random annoyances out of their noses ?

@Su *******
so why are you still willing to allow Immigration to invite you to their happy pappy carousell ride, when it is common sense that with a border bounce, you will get stamped in for 180 days and no questions will be asked

so funny, because on a DTV you cannot open a Thai bank account

it depends on the embassy's or consulate's own discretion. NORMALLY you cannot apply for a new visa if you are on a still valid visa or on a still valid stay permit. With the introduction of the DTV on July 15th, 2024, we hear more and more reports of exceptions that have occured
