You cannot work in Thailand with DTV. You must get a nin b and work permit usually done by the company you work for. You can go out and come back as many times as you like it's multi entry for 5 years each reentry sets your 180 days. You must also do 90 day reporting. No need to use a border bounce company you can go and come yourself it's easy they will never ask for your paperwork only your DTV

@James *******
exactly James it's very simple really and he should have know the process before applying for the DTV. He is trying to fool the embassy but they have his immagration records so follow the rules simple

Again your opinion and only you posted here. Never heard of what you are talking about so like most things posted here take it with a grain of salt. I have consulted with my local immigration office and am confident where I stand. You don't even have a DTV so why attend whatever meetings you are attending to talk about hypertheticls. Your an overthinker

based on what evidence it's just your opinion that's means nothing. The 5 years will be honored regardless if the DTV is stopped

why agent know better that's rubbish. They can't open it now because they are the ones not secure enough opening for money laundering. You can open an account you just need correct paperwork. Including a letter from you phone company identifying you and your phone number,copy of passport,visa and stamp,letter of house registration from immagration or yellow house book,tax id if you have one. The bank will do it. It has become more strict because of government crackdown on money laundering scams now operating in Thailand. But it is possible on DTV. I have bkk bank and krungthai bank accounts and pay with the app on phone

On onward ticket is not required it's a scam. You DTV is a multiple entry 5 year visa with a 180 day stamp and a 180 day extension an option. You do not require any onward ticket at anytime
