as I said, this was for a *tourist* visa, last year, not the DTV. And as I said, I was asking about *initializing* the DTV, i.e. the first entry. As far as it never being stipulated that you need to enter from your country of origin, that was the consensus at the time when I posted a similar question like this in Facebook. If people on Facebook talk bollocks and aren't a reliable source, well that's precisely why I asked politely where you were getting your information from. Official sources of course would always be preferable.

@Brandon ***********

yup, so you're saying you're going by the testimonies of other people here; fair enough

@Brandon ***********

I remember last time I applied for a tourist visa on the evisa site, it was stipulated that you could only enter Thailand from your country of origin

@Brandon ***********

super helpful, thank you, Brandon. Re. 1 & especially 2, are you absolutely sure? Do you have any official source, or where are you getting your information? Not doubting you, just obviously an important thing to get right. I don't want to inadvertently invalidate the visa somehow

@Brandon ***********

that's quite a few foreign card ATM charges before it becomes worth it

@Brandon ***********

any idea how much an agent would charge for this?

@Darlene ********

yeah, I didn't go to the University of Life and School of Hard Knocks like the buck-toothed brextard intelligentsia

@Alan ********

why not just do that in the first place then if you've got nothing between your ears, and stop wasting everyone's time, including your own 🤷‍♂️

@Alan ********

your mate David also gone fully awol now. It's like as soon as you present a brextard with an argument they just melt. It's a fascinating thing

@Alan ********

notice how much you write in response to the insignificant tit-for-tat stuff, but couldn't muster a single word in response to all the actual arguments I pitched to you above ^

Gives a good insight into *your* mentality.
