It's too bad he felt the need to pretend that people would be taking vacations after the 180 days instead of clearly asking if border bounces would be allowed or ask what kinds of courses would qualify for the visa. Would a one week cooking course work? It does clarify a lot, but of course each embassy will assert their own requirements.
I would have have liked to see more questions about that stuff as well. Still better info than anything else currently out there so the pieces of the puzzle are slowly falling into place.

Laos and Cambodia offer evisas. NO FULL Page visa only a entry/exit stamp
so ........
When I went through the land border using one of the border run van services they put that huge sticker in our passports that takes up a whole page. Not sure about eVisa but when I got the visa at the airport on arrival in PP several years ago they also put that huge sticker in my passport.

I guess if your income isn't taxed in your home-country or no dual-tax treaty with Thailand, it could be a significant problem. Otherwise, just means filling out a tax form here, to stay fully compliant.
It's just another thing to deal with on top of all the other BS paperwork and hoops Thailand is making us jump through. That is the part I don't like. I am supposed to be retired and enjoying life. Not filling out paperwork and tax forms. Even if I pay someone else to do that for me it's still just another thing I have to deal with one way or another. Individually, these things are not that big a deal, but collectively it is becoming a PiTA.

Keep in mind that larger ovens really heat up a place, so that's going to be a hit to the aircon bill. A small countertop oven is best. I would want to get a dedicated airfryer before I get an oven. I don't think a combined oven/airfryer is as good. They are larger as well so I don't think you save much on counter space instead of two separate appliances.

There were success reports on FB, and also here on AN guy posted a picture of DTV visa (sticker) issued in Cambodia 🙂
I would not want to get that just because it takes up a whole page in the passport. Even though I have the extended page passport it's almost all filled up, even with covid where I didn't go anywhere for 2 years. Part of the reason is those stupid Cambodia visa stickers that take up a whole page each time you go there. If you were to get this as well that would be two full pages used up.

LOL at the knuckleheads getting all bent out of shape over the opening ceremonies. They see gay people boogeymen around every corner. Rainbow flags must look like swastikas to them or something. 😆
I could never understand why they seem to feel so threatened by it all. They probably don't like how it stirs up their repressed feelings.

for sure. do you know of any convicted felons who are finished the court process - including appeals - and are now in the sentencing part ?
There ya go. Moving the goalposts just like every other loyal convicted felon defender does, which you are TOTALLY not. You just care about the 'issues'.

Gotta LOL at the knuckleheads latest
Faux NoiseFox News talking points. "I only care about the issues". Not what a deplorable piece of garbage the convicted felon is.Apparently, wanting to abolish elections and declare himself dictator for life is not an 'issue' to them. 🤡

Boring pandering propaganda to please woke Leninists who mock traditional values in their quest for power.
Does rawdogging a porn star while your 3rd trophy wife is having another one of your spawn qualify as traditional values?

The MFA guy interviewed above said there would be NO documentation requirements for DTV holders when re-entering Thailand ... just present the visa only. No requalification process.
However, just the opposite if the same DTV holder instead wants to do the single in-country 180-day extension allowed at Thai Immigration per each new arrival in country. At Immigration for that extension, the MFA guy indicated proof of continuing eligibility WOULD be required.
It's not that big a deal to take a short trip to a neighbouring country once every 6 months, so a lot of people would probably just do that.

Not sure why nobody talks about the residences. They are different construction and probably different management. They are not high rises so I would think there would be less waiting around for elevators.

I would say VT7 is the worst for long term living. Most people there are short term foreigners as far as I could tell when I walked around the place a few times. Might be nice in low season when nobody is around. Only reason anyone would think it's the best is because of location right on the beach in the main Jomtien downtown area. I think most of the units on the back side are empty. I think they are just there to fill the Thai quota so they can sell all the front ones to foreigners at a premium. Could be a bit noisy depending which way you are facing. I think VT8 has different management and that may be what people are complaining about with that one. That VT8 area is becoming quite popular so I don't think location is the problem.
Not a fan of VT2A. Too many punters. Saw a guy in his 60s with a mohawk dyed orange at the pool. Lots of drunks and people who have given up and are just running out the clock. You get the idea. I haven't considered VT2B. Too far away from the road, so not sure what that one is like. My favorite ones are 5D and 3A and B. VT3 is nice for peace and quiet and if you like Pratamnak area and want to be right on the ocean. You pretty much need your own transportation though. Don't need your own transportation for VT5, better class of expats hanging around compared to VT2A across the street, the foodmart almost right across the street, and easy keycard access to/from the beach. So VT5 kind of checks all the boxes for me.

No evidence yet that they will accept dental appointments. It is quite possible as they don't seem to be strict about any of it.

Interview with the Deputy Director-General of the Consular Department about DTV
in Thai Visas, Residency, and Work Permits
Posted
I am still trying to figure this out for myself. I would prefer to not give them any financial/tax details of my business but so far I can't see a way around it for my particular situation.
