Which Thai Embassy/Consulate did you apply? Consulate in Sydney, Embassy in Canberra, or somewhere else?

1.) Just come visit and see Thailand first-hand with that Single Entry Tourist Visa you already have approved now;

2.) As for applying for the DTV Visa, consider what you experienced and learned from your first trip to Thailand, then can apply for the DTV Visa after returning home;

3.) As from the text of the Interior Ministry Notice and the Immigration Bureau Order implementing the DTV Visa, the DTV Visa is not a temporary or promotional change, but has a more permanent policy to the DTV Visa and there are no quotas to it, similar to other tourist visas where there are no quotas associated with them.

This is for an Algeria (DZA) Passport, so is not eligible for visa exempt and also not eligible for 30 Days Visa on Arrival

if it is a Muay Thai course, then compared to an ED Visa, considering the DTV Visa would be the better option for a number of reasons (5 Years, Multiple Entry, etc.), notwithstanding the 500k Baht Proof of Funds requirement for DTV. Also, Muay Thai is specifically listed as one of the eligible categories in the Interior Ministry Notice published in the Royal Gazette giving effect to the DTV Visa

don't understand the relationship, or no relationship, between the other FB Private Group, and this FB Private Group, as, on the face of it, there are at least 2 common Admins ???

both seem to have a common aim of providing Thai Visa Advice/Thailand Visa Advice

Any more field reports of 3rd or more Land Entry using Visa Exemption from other Land Borders?? Hopefully, reports from the Land Borders with Laos perhaps??

Great work as always, and, personally, heard this great news here 1st in this FB Group, not other websites, FB Pages, or FB Groups!

As per the Interior Ministry Notice as published in the Royal Gazette making this 60 Days Visa Exemption in effect, the Thai language mirrors this English language infographic as published by the Thai Department of Consular Affairs (DCA), Thailand MFA:

"...

ข้อ ๕ คนต่างด้าวซึ่งได้รับสิทธิยกเว้นการตรวจลงตราตามประกาศนี้ ต่อมามีความประสงค์ จะขอเปลี่ยนประเภทการตรวจลงตราหรือขอรับการตรวจลงตราเพื่ออยู่ในราชอาณาจักรเป็นการชั่วคราว ด้วยวัตถุประสงค์อื่นให้สามารถกระทำได้ ทั้งนี้ การพิจารณาอนุญาตให้เปลี่ยนประเภทการตรวจลงตรา และการอยู่ต่อในราชอาณาจักรเป็นการชั่วคราวด้วยวัตถุประสงค์อื่น ให้เป็นไปตามหลักเกณฑ์ วิธีการ และเงื่อนไขที่สำนักงานตรวจคนเข้าเมืองกำหนด

...."

Hopefully, more field reports at more land border checkpoints using different countries' passports come in!

Unfortunately, I don't know. However, you can make a direct inquiry with the Thai Cabinet Secretariat!
