It happened to me on Friday but it wasn't the bank account they questioned me about. They looked up my DTV and saw I got it for Thai boxing. He didn't believe I was doing boxing cause I weigh 160kg, I'm super overweight and unfit.

They laughed at me and then told me to shadow box for 5 minutes to prove I'm passionate about boxing.

It was so embarrassing 😞

I struggled to get through the 5 minutes

Some many comments and not one person has actually answered the question that was asked 🥱

I got my DTV with a Thai farming course. It's was a 5 day course on how to milk a cow.

Cost me $4000 baht

hey brother I think you and others have read the post wrong. The person said they already live in Thailand. They will be traveling to Australia for education purposes.

I assume that means while in Australia they want to apply for the DTV for whatever reason and use it on the return to Thailand 🌞

At Phuket immigration you take the TM30. Fill in the form. Photo copy passport photo page, visa page and stamp. I can't remember if they now require a passport size photo. One time I needed the photo, the next time I didn't. You pay 300 baht. It took about 30 minutes each time I did it

@Ste****

he means has anyone got a DTV from within Australia 🦘

@Sa***

is that the one at Rawai Beach?

I wouldn't be surprised if they end up having a thing where on each entry or extension you have to show an up to date letter from the employer or if doing a cooking or boxing course an up to date enrollment for the next period. I'm just thinking I can't imagine them just letting people stay for 5 years after paying for a 3 or 6 month cooking course........ But I'm just guessing, maybe they won't care at all

in Phuket you can get a Thai driving licence with no visa. I did it last year on a 30 day visa exempt stamp. I had to get a residency certificate and a medical certificate
