With the new DTV visa

Can we enter for 5 years Thailand every year for 180 days?🤔

Thanks in advance...

Hello dear DTV'ers,

I wish to share my experience as I hadn't read a clear guidance on what happens when we leave Thailand while on the DTV visa. Yes, we know that it's a multi entry visa, but here is the interesting twist that I can confirm ( At least from my experience).

I first arrived in Thailand on August 2nd, expiration date: January 28 2025. Then I left the country for about 10 days in October. Entered Thailand on October 16th...my new expiration date is April 13th 2025. I find this situation very interesting as we also have the choice of renewing once a year with immigration(we'll see how that goes). One question is still unanswered, 180 + 180 (renewal)= 360, if we choose this path, what happens with those 5 missing days to complete the year?

I hope that this post will help put a little light with this fantastic visa.

Cheers

Hey

I have a question about the DTV visa

If I leave Thailand after 3 months and return does it count 180 days all over again?
