can confirm.

Just did my first reentry on the DTV at DMK. No questions asked.

Hi
@Ang***
, I'm from the UK originally but also a US citizen. I've had quite a few different visas to Thailand over the years on both passports, and have applied via different routes (consulates, embassies, online, etc). So I have some different perspectives which might be helpful.

I'm also a full time digital nomad, currently living in Japan, and was recently approved for the DTV.

Let me know if you'd like to chat. Thanks.

@T**
I just got the DTV and I’ve never had a Thai drivers license before (but I intend to get one this time).

Is getting the 2 year temporary one firstly mandatory?

Or do you think I can just go straight for the 5 year one?

Thanks.

@Kim ********
true. I just don’t like the additional battery drain of running one and the inconvenience of having to switch it on/off a lot.

You’re absolutely correct though - this is another way.

I've tried every option. Google Fi is the only one which has worked for me long term.

You can port your number over to it quite easily too.

Yes, some places are definitely better than others. Starlink is suited for remote locations where there aren’t too many people sharing the same beam footprint.

In densely populated areas, existing fiber connections and 5G are going to be better options.

Fiber internet packages from AIS, True, etc are going to be the best for most people for a long time. The value prop is too good to turn down (I’m a subscriber myself).

For those living in areas with limited Internet access options (islands, countryside, etc), Starlink is going to be a game changer.

Also for those who don’t want the Thai government to have access to their browsing history (for whatever reason).

I'll definitely be considering it when it's activated in Thailand.

Download / upload speeds are insane.
