What are the recent updates and requirements for extending a DTV visa in Phuket?

@Luna ******

You may already know this, but often different immigration offices have slightly different requirements. It’s always worth asking for a list. They have lists. 😊

Good luck with everything.

They can also advise you how to get any kind of different visas/extensions you might be thinking of.

If you speak to them directly you won’t be wondering what’s going to happen at the ‘big bad immigration office’ or be convinced by agents that it’s all so difficult so you need to pay them to do it for you.

What should I know about applying for a DTV extension in Phuket, especially regarding the application fee and possible denial?

@Luit ****************

yes, payment in advance for a 30 day extension but, if they weren’t going to give you the extension they wouldn’t have taken your money.

to clear up any confusion, rather than going to agents, it might be best to go to the immigration office you might use for an extension and ask them. They won’t bite you.

Is a black and white print of my DTV visa acceptable for use in Thailand?

Biff *******

Black and white is fine. A friend of mine used a black and white print of his visa and had no problems.

Your last paragraph mentions frustration that things are not consistently applied. The entire country is structured like that. It’s not done accidentally either.

It’s something anyone living in Thailand will need to get used to.

Can I obtain a residence certificate with a DTV visa?

Biff *******

excuse me? Your comment is indeed helpful, if the person is in Bangkok. Why do you feel the need to be so rude?

What do I need for a border run with a DTV visa in Thailand?

Biff *******

Anonymous participant 419 proximity would make sense and yet, some people report spending hours in a van and paying twice the cost of a flight.

If the person is in Bangkok. They didn't say where they are.

I think you’re confusing two different processes. Applying for a visa from an embassy or consulate, fees are non refundable, they are ‘processing fees’ not visa fees.

Applying for an extension in an immigration office, fees are paid when they give you the extension.
