It depends on you…the Elite visa cuts out so much BS that the DTV incorporates into it…example with the Elite you don’t need a minimum amount in your bank acct at all times, this comes into effect if you want to chillax in Thailand and not leave for a year while with the DTV you have to show the DTV minimum in a Thai bank acct when getting an extension plus it has to be seasoned…with the elite you get fast track at immigration which is great when you see the long lines…yes you pay for it but it’s basically cut out BS…the DTV is forever changing
