I paid 400 one way in September from Los Angeles

@Paula *******

you simply use an agent. MOTS in pattaya gets it done in one day about 4000 bht

Thailand is a great place but many things in Thailand logically don’t make sense. Just leave it at that.

If you actually read the instructions, it would have been very clear that immediately after you entered with a valid DTV, You need to purchase a pad Thai from a government approved vendor, and get proof of purchase (usually known as a receipt) and this needs to mailed to immigration within 48 hours. Once the prime minister and the King approve it, you need to report to the immigration station to pick up your certificate. The pad Thai purchase process needs to be repeated every 60 DAYS, I repeat 60 DAYS or else you risk up to 3 years in prison.

@Kayleigh ***************

it should be done every time returning

You don’t just read the requirements yourself and see if you qualify? Lol

lol. Too much blah blah .

You don’t qualify for digital nomad. You don’t have a job lol

Just sign up for Thai cooking classes or something. You are making it way harder then it needs to be lol

Maybe you should try reading the basic visa information lol. It clearly says you CANNOT work in Thailand lol 😂🤦‍♂️

This is silly lol

You can help a temple sweep if you want lol how on earth did you think it’s somehow illegal lol. But don’t think you are getting visa just for helping a temple sweep or pick up cans 😂

It happens in Indonesia with me as well. Some of the grab drivers here are literally idiots
