Just moved here to Thailand, Does anyone know how to get a residence certificate with DTV?

I need it for my driving lesson application here in BKK.

Thanks !

Hello everyone. I’m a DTV holder and about to make 90 days report. Some agents asked for the TM 7 form which I’d never seen before. I’d also visited Vietnam after I got in with DTV. And no one gave me such document at the airport😅. The last time I got into Thailand with DTV was in November.

May I know is that possible to make 90 days report without TM 7 form?

Hi, anyone applied DTV visa in India and got approved ? Please share your experience.

I am a US citizen and just had a baby with my Thai girlfriend. My understanding was that less than 60 days after birth, I can legitimize my child at the district office. Now I am being told I need a lawyer/interpreter that will cost anywhere between 60,000-100,000 baht.

My plan was to legitimize our child, and then apply for a 1 year visa at the immigration office. I went into the immigration office and they told me it would be a 1 year visa. They didn't mention what one that would be.

There is also the option of getting a free lawyer, but this will take about a year. I wouldn't mind waiting a year, but I am worried if that will change my visa situation. The immigration officer told me on my last border run I would have to fly out of the country for my next run.

I am looking mostly to make sure my visa situation will be good here in Thailand for a while. The money I can come up with, but it is a large expense. If you can offer any guidance to me with regards to the visa and legitimation, I would really appreciate it. Thanks again!

Can 'pending approval' in the system still be denied ? Has anyone ever gotten rejected ?

How is the immigration process for a DTV holder in Thailand? How frequently should I go to immigration office for the paperwork?

90 day report done online 14 days prior due-date in Phuket and accepted within 1 hour.

Since I arrived in Phuket nearly 2 years ago, never had to show-up life at immigration for report, despite several travels outside Thaïland. Always submitted 10-14 days prior due-date and TM30 always done at return.

This is my experience in Phuket.

American on Visa Exempt. How do I extend? Is that still in person or online? The site i found closest option was for a tourist visa but it's not technically a tourist visa.

My U.S. ten year passport expires in 18 months. When getting a renewel the number changes i think. With the DTV being five years would I simply inform the Thai consulate of the new number?

I’m living in Chiang Mai with my wife and our four children, all on DTVs. 90 days for us is next Thursday. Online isn’t available for the first report, and I opted to try in-person to see if it was as easy as I had been told. It was. I asked another expat for advice and was told to take passports, TM30s, and completed TM47s. I also took a print-out of our house lease agreement but wasn’t asked to show it. I didn’t take passport photocopies. I got to the drive-up window not long before 1:00; it was closed for lunch between 12 and 1. Several minutes later the window opened, and I gave the officer the stack of six passports (with TM47s loose and TM30s attached inside each one). It took him about three minutes to process all six of them and issue printed receipts. Please note that this is my experience in Chiang Mai today; no guarantee that this will work exactly the same in other places or at a later date. Also: our passports are stamped through Feb. 19, but, because I went in a week early for 90-day reporting (you can do it between 15 days before and 7 after the 90-day mark), the receipts show that we need to report again 90 days from today (Feb. 11), not 90 days from the 90th day (Feb. 19). So, if one wants to schedule a 180-day border bounce very close to a visa stamp date, don't report ahead of the 90-day date like I did unless you want to report twice before leaving the country.
