ORIGINAL POSTER

Hi everyone. I just left Thailand 12 April when my SETV visa expired (60 day). Ive been advised as I had an SETV visa I cannot re enter Thailand  for 6 months not sure if that is correct. Any insight will be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

TLDR : Answer Summary

The concern about not being able to re-enter Thailand for 6 months after an SETV visa expired is unfounded, as there is no such rule in place. However, frequent visitors are advised to consider obtaining a more appropriate visa for their travel patterns.

look at the pm sent to you. The reason is clear.

We do not allow any mention of AGENT on the forum.

Otherwise the remainder of your reply was OK.

There is no such rule....Barstool gab.....

But if you do plan on making numerous visits to Thailand each year...suggest you get a correct visa.
