possibly two times with an extension each time, if you are lucky. Thai Immigration is cracking down on those who are using the visa exempt entry, tourist visas and extensions to live in Thailand.

@Zou *******

pardon me, but that is not how it is happening in today's Thailand. Get the correct Thai Visa for your planned visit or stay in Thailand.

Anonymous participant 643 and what happens when that little screen does not work ?

@Niklas *******

that should be fine. We have seen the Thai Embassy or Consulate in Vietnam issue a SETV single entry or METV multiple entry tourist visa instead of the DTV 5 year visa. We suspect that it's because of the time in months for the soft power activity...a SETV single entry tourist visa gets Up to 3 months stay in Thailand, the METV multiple entry can get up to 9 months stay with a few simple border bounces.

Please update us when you get the decision. Good Luck 🍀

Anonymous participant then you are fine with your application for the DTV visa in Rome. BUT stay where you are until the decision is known about the DTV visa.

@John *********

Yep 👍

Anonymous participant stay in Italy. Then you will be okay 👍

Thank You for your helpful report 👍

Congratulations 👏👏👏

PRINT OUT THE EMAIL THAT HAS YOUR DTV VISA.

That's what you should do... print it out.

You may have to show PROOF of your DTV Visa to airline staff on check-in for your flight ✈️ to Thailand...even to the connecting airline staff. Or to the land border crossing entry Thai Immigration Officer.

Upon arrival into Thailand, show the DTV visa to the Thai Immigration Officer and look at the STAMP placed in your passport to be sure you are STAMPED in for 180 days.
