Since they suggested it would happen they've had a severe earthquake and in last few days economic crisis of 37% tariffs to sell goods to USA. So there's serious question marks over GDP forecasts with income falling and fewer tourists. The Immigration officials need to think again if nows,the time to halve duration of foreigners visiting Thailand ? Makes no sense and only adds to Thailand's problems

@John ********
actually their logic is pretty simple. All thise ridiculous restriction are funding the tons of agents existing. For them is better ppl to bounce every 2 months then every 3 months. Much more profitable, isnt it?

No need for agents for a tourist visa. If tourists add a 30 day extension, more money for Immigration. Again, no agent needed.

@David ******
it doesnt matter in this case, they wont make me go to hotel no matter what. But this is a way to keep the food for the agents. It looks like the most profitable job out there

I heard the elite own the big thai hotels and are pissed off visitors are renting condos from foreigners (illegally ) and avoiding exorbitant hotel bills. They hate foreigner renting out the condo they sold him!

Anything can happen in Thailand. It always changes every day just because they say it’s going back to 30. It still could be a while who knows

@Kevin ******
correct, I spoke with a visa agent yesterday and she said she got back from vacation to find that agents can no longer open bank accounts for those seeking that service. No warning. Agents were blindsided. No matter what visa one has

@Kevin ******
it went into effect yesterday or after Friday. This is what she told me. I’m not making up stories. She was having problems getting with clients that were already in the pipeline for the service. She told me that is part of the service she can no longer provide until I’m sure it changes. 🤷🏽‍♂️. I have about 3 months so I’ll wait and see
