Bus from Phuket to Bangkok, Then Bus from Bangkok to Siem Reap for €50... Can't complain

Work isn't the priority here, Yes the scuba diving will/potentially come with work but the work is world wide, I'm just looking for homebase to be Thailand.

There is the new "Destination Thailand" Visa, DTV. It is 5 years valid, but requires some proof of funds. I think about 20,000EURO - google it.

It has basically two categories, one is "digital nomad", aka working remotely in Thailand, the other one is "sport and cultural activities".

My Scuba diving would fall into the second one.

I have 3 locations to choose from, all vary in course costs, I'm waiting on arrival before anything gets confirmed on my end. Just in case anything were to happen on arrival to Thailand.

I was hoping that wasn't the case... Are you sure there's no way or form of assistance that I'm able to obtain within my 90 days on the Exemption Visa, say upgrading it to a DTV As I technically fit into the sports activities part of it for requirements.

Guys, I was wondering about something completely different to what you guys are actually explaining I think.

I just wanted to know if I can upgrade my Visa Exemption to a DTV, As I'm scuba diving and obtaining my licenses to become an instructor/dive master, without leaving thailand within my 90 days...

Do I have to leave Thailand within my 90 days of Visa Exemption to get the DTV or can I acquire it while I'm over there already.

@Ralph ******
I know and I don't want the 90 days to finish at all, but I was wondering if there is any visas that I am able to obtain while I'm over there within the 90 days.
