YEs, from Hua Hin, an agency called LIME TOURS is organizing border runs to Ranong/Kawthoung Myanmar

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

@Colin ******

that was an absolute exception, and 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 arrival of the DTV, we hear more and more exceptions have been made

there has now been a report, that when a guy I know asked, Immigration Hua Hin about the requirements in case of an extension, the immigration officer said he wants the proof of 500.000 THB in a bank account, if he opted for the extension. They then told the guy he would be better off to bounce, as by the border nobody would ask him for his bank account details. I know the guy personally. I am not the one who would pull fairy tales out of the nose.

I dare to take a bet that 90% of all young digital nomads who now have successfully been issued a DTV, do not hold 500.000.- THB in their accounts all the time, by no way. They are paying for their living with these funds. Not everybody is a rich pensioner

@David *******

like I said there has been a report that Hua Hin Immigration wants 500.000.- THB in a Thai bank account in your name, if you want to extent a DTV inside Thailand for 180 more days. Then another officer approached and told the guy, just exit and re-enter and you will be fine. As far as these "new" rules are interpreted, I suggest you do your own research, this is the updated rule on DTV extensions. Go have a Thai friend translate it for you

@David *******

there have now been several reports that Immigration wants the proof of 500.000 THB in your bank account, again, if you opt for the extension. So you are better off to bounce as by the border nobody will ask you for your bank account detail
