Do I need a departure ticket after obtaining a DTV visa and what are the TM30 and TM90 requirements for stay in Thailand?

Winston ************

Immigration officers won't ask for a departure ticket but airline stuff could. You can choose to argue or explain to them that you don't need one or, do like I do, just book a cheap refundable ticket.

Can I use my company's bank statement for my DTV visa extension in Thailand?

Winston ************

Why would you wanna do an extension? It's a big hassle and close to impossible. Just bounce in and out TH.

What should I do if I'm told to wait until my Vietnam tourist visa expires before reapplying?

Winston ************

@Gianmaria *******

the eVisa system shows all previous and active/current visas. I guess some of you who never needed a visa to enter Thailand don't know. I'm not from a visa exempt country so I know this.

What should I do if my DTV was issued outside my birth country?

Winston ************

Quite a bizarre and stupid question by the officer. For some of us there isn't even a Thai embassy in my country. I had to submit to the nearest neighbouring country.

What should I do if my employer is not from my home country when applying for a Thai visa?

Winston ************

That's not unsual. My employer is NOT in my home country, and I submitted my application to a Thai embassy that's NOT in my home country. My bank account is NOT in my home country either. Got approved. That's being a real digital nomad.

Have there been any successful DTV applications at the Thai Embassy in Nairobi or other locations?

Winston ************

A success has been reported out of Abuja, Nigeria. Keep in mind Nigerians have stricter requirements than other Africans (I'm not just saying that, it's on the Thai e-visa website). So Kenyans have a better chance, I think. Go for it and keep us updated.

Can I apply for a DTV visa from the Netherlands with documents in Dutch and enter Thailand from another EU country?

Winston ************

I think Dutch should be OK. When I applied for my Thai visas in the Hong Kong consulate everything was in Chinese and it was approved. Embassies hire local stuff from that country who understand the local language. Also, some diplomats and officers speak the language of the country that they're deployed in.
