TLDR : Answer Summary

When applying for a Short-Term Visa (STV) for Thailand, you must enter the country within 90 days from the date the visa is issued. This means that there is a specific deadline for your entry into Thailand after the visa is granted.

All visa has validation period, that is the date you can use that visa until.

STV is a single entry visa, which is valid for 90days from issued date for you to enter Thailand on that visa.

Also, isn't the STV Visa program only valid until September 30th 2022? So technically you need to also be in Thailand with your STV Visa before that date?

I have no idea how they are going to implement that, or what type of restrictions will exist then 🙁 September is 9 months away
