The Destination Thailand Visa (DTV)<\/a>, launched in July 2024, is a five-year multiple-entry visa. Each entry allows 180 days, extendable once by 180 days. It is not a work permit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The DTV changed the game for remote workers, freelancers, and people who want to\u00a0live in Thailand long-term<\/a>. It is often called the Thailand digital nomad visa, although that is not its official name. It\u2019s legal, affordable, and comes with real protections under Thai law. In this article, you will learn the DTV Application steps and everything you need to know about the Destination Thailand Visa.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
