What are the requirements for the 180-day extension of the DTV visa in Thailand?

John ********

The DTV hasn’t been around along enough for someone to enter and do a 90 day report.

Can I re-enter Thailand for the third time in September after multiple visits this year?

John ********

1) dress nice. Don’t look like a backpacker. Be well groomed and don’t wear a Bob Marley t-shirt. Make sure you have had a shower recently.

2) try to use a male immigration officer. My experience is they can be more lenient.

3) if questioned the main thing is to remain calm. Don’t get angry or show emotion

Do I need an onward ticket when traveling from Kuala Lumpur to Thailand with AirAsia or Batik Air?

John ********

that’s not the point boy. I have seen the gate staff call 5 or so people including myself to the counter before boarding and ask for a ticket out of Thailand or a long term visa.

you have no idea what you’re talking about. Just making things up with false assumptions. Stick to the Dutch forums as those people might believe your bad assumptions and guessing based on absolutely nothing.
