Hi Everyone
Background:
As I was returning to Australia in March this year I allowed my O-A Retirement Visa extension to lapse in February 2025.
I did a border run in February and returned under the Visa Exemption option for 3 weeks. I then exited Thailand on 8 March and returned to Australia.
I returned to Thailand in July for 3 weeks, again on a Visa Exemption.
My next 2 week visit on a Visa Exemption is planned for November this year.
Therefore in summary, that would total 3 visa exemptions (if granted) and approximately 9 weeks of staying in Thailand this year.
All exits/entries were and will be done through BKK Airport.
(BTW-Next year I will be re-applying for my O-A visa in Australia before returning to Thailand on a long term basis.)
Question please:
Do you think there is a high-medium risk that my 3rd Thailand Visa Exemption entry will not be granted?
If so, I may bring my O-A visa application forward.
TIA.
