Do I need to do a 90-day check-in in person every time I leave and come back to Thailand?

@William *******

Many DTVers have done it, as if you stay 180 days, you can to it twice, and if you extend in country (some have), then more than two times

Elías ********

Every time you enter the Kingdom from abroad, a 90-day report is always "a first".

How will frequent short stays in Thailand as a flight attendant affect my immigration status?

Elías ********

And yeah, the DTV isn't for you, I mean, as per its own rules.

Elías ********

As long as you're a crew member, and can prove it with your card, you shouldn't have any problem entering, exiting and reentering Thailand on a very frequent basis.

What are the current challenges with applying for the Destination Thailand Visa (DTV) due to political changes?

@Andrew ********

if you know how ED visas work, you'll know they'll be doing more profit on it, as you'll need to visit Immigration once every few months. On a DTV, you might not even need to visit Immigration once in the whole 5 and half years, so it's a "loss" for the agents.

As a matter of fact, the time the OP has invested writing and reading the email to the agent might be even more than 15 minutes, what it took to send my DTV application

this has nothing to do with being able to afford it or not. I'd be able to "afford" hundred of agents, but I refuse to. Come on, I didn't even spend FIFTEEN minutes on filling and sending my DTV application online 🤷🏻

IF it was a super long and/or complicated process, then yeah, I'd be the first using an agent.

That's just BS. The reason? I'm not sure but maybe the DTV isn't as much as profitable for the agent. Good news is you don't need an agent to get one.
