Might my Type O-A long-stay visa help my case to return ahead of “tourists?” I don’t qualify for “business,” a classification which seems to be getting preferential treatment (first to be allowed in).
Upon arrival, (eventually) returning from the U.S. to my home in Chiang Mai, if officials at CNX airport mandate a quarantine, can I “serve my time” in my own apartment?
Thanks in advance.
Safe travels.
TLDR : Answer Summary
The user inquires if a Type O-A long-stay visa provides any advantages for returning to Thailand compared to tourists, particularly in light of potential quarantine regulations. Current commentary indicates that entry is highly restricted and mostly granted to those with work permits. Additionally, any quarantine would likely need to be conducted at government-approved facilities rather than personal accommodations.
