ORIGINAL POSTER
I met a woman online back in January and we're in love! We talk every single day! We just want to be together! She lives in Bangkok and I live in the U.S. I've had no less than 3 plane tickets to Thailand but of course Covid has blocked me from getting to there everytime. Does anyone know any way I can be allowed to go to Thailand now??

TLDR : Answer Summary
The post discusses the challenges faced by an American seeking to visit his online girlfriend in Thailand during the pandemic. Respondents offer insights on visa options currently available, specifically mentioning the Tourist Visa and Special Tourist Visa, as well as financial requirements such as a bank balance of $17,000 for the Tourist Visa application. Many comments also provide cautionary advice regarding relationships with Thai women, underscoring the importance of being cautious and avoiding sending money. The conversation reflects both optimism about travel reopening and concerns regarding potential scams.

Do yourself a big favour & buy a book called Confessions of a Bangkok Private Eye, written by a friend of mine Warren Olsen. It's a true account of his years in Thailand, with very little embellishment. If you've not been to Thailand its an eye opener. I can tell you more about the writing of it & his opinion/beliefs in Thai people. PM me if you more details.

Forget her unless she has a stable job and income she has probably moved on. Ladies in the entertainment industry have more than one man on the go especially now when tourists are like rocking horse shit.

GREG HOW MUCH YOU SPENT ALREADY YOU HAVENT EVEN SEEN HER PROB SPENT 5000 USD ALREADY?

Hey if you just get here you will fall in love so many times your heart may become permanently open even when it breaks and whatever happens including all the beautiful joy you find - love is everywhere - but it is a repressed emotion in the good ol exceptionally insane USA . Oh yeah, there are a few good thongs there and good-hearted people, but then why venture to Thailand 🤣🙃🥰

i know you wont listen but after 24 years being here, make sure you bring plenty of cash cause ALLLLLLLLLLL Thai girls loveeeeeeee to spend YOUR money! put the car in her name put the condo in her name, its endless... yes shes different, no she aint! keep a ledger of how much money you will spend!! its gonna be huge.... theres even websites here that have 300K followers on how to cheat foreigners! its a huge industry.... then again a fool and his money are easily departed...
Tom ***********
You guys on this thread are so narrow minded. Ive had a thai girlfriend for 3 years and she pays more things for me than i actually pay for her. You find good and bad people everywhere. Show some respect you dickheads or leave the page
Tom ***********
Fair enough, the names are probably over the top, however im tired of seeing the amount of farangs with these stories. Especially when its a 'visa' thread
Robert ********
@Tom **********
agree with everything except for the name calling and telling people to leave the page part. Everyone’s entitled to their opinions. I’m with you and am fortunate to be in the same boat. But, not everyone has the same experience. A lot of it’s their own fault, some of it isn’t. We got lucky. Count your blessings.
Chris *********************
I posted before saying no come to thailand and find out for yourself don't send her money if she asks and then see the out come good luck pal
Karim ***************
If money isn’t an issue and you’re desperate to see your love, fly to the U.K. Stay for a couple of weeks and arrange a 60 day tourist visa from the London Thai Embassy. Whole process can be completed in 2 weeks. You would then have to complete a 2 week quarantine in Thailand.

Be patient,Thailand .,Thailand had 3800 cases and 59 deaths in 10 months...US has had about 13,000,000 cases and 254,400. Deaths.

Thais are being very carefull. Use skype or other chat sights.,it'll be close to a year.

I only asked about visa advice but somehow people felt they needed to share all THEIR horror stories. But I understand, just not what I was asking help with.
Dominik **********
@Greg *********
yes, some of them shared in a horrific way their personal experiences and show no respect to Thai culture nor the women’s, usually these guys sharing these bad experiences are living the low life in Pattaya, Phuket or other sex orientated city in Thailand and getting involved respectively falling in love with sex-workers. They don’t realize that if they get into a relationship with a sex-worker back home they face the same issues. However rest assured, you’re able to find decent women’s with high education living a normal live then any other women around the world and also fall in love and being a good wife as any other women around the world. Of course culture makes a few things different but you figure it out. Wish you best of luck 🤞

Wake up! Beautiful women are in high demand all over the world. They don't "fall in love" online. I don't care if they are Russian, Thai, or from Mars. They are won over with "game," chemistry, and most of all by not being needy. Money can help too, but if you are going to pay for it, you might as well get something in return. Your online love will hit you up for money at some point! If you don't get beautiful women in your own country, don't be delusional. The fact that you say you are "in love" without even going on a date ensures me that you don't. Don't believe me? Do this: Create another profile with some random handsome guy's picture and contact your "girlfriend." Offer her financial help. See how faithful she is. I can''t believe in today's times people still actually fall for this. By the way, there are many good Thai women, but they won't be making love vows via internet to a guy they have never even dated.
Paul **********
well said mate... there are good thai girls but you need to have a system they adhere to and they are not online... make that PROFILE AND TEST IT OUT! SHE WILL DUMB YOU LIKE A HOT ROCK IF SHE GETS A BETTER proposal and if and when you case runs dry c19 is the best thign to stop dumb farang coming here

David *********
Just slow down and take your time, part by part, long way to go yet, zero reason to rush, just wait until you can get a ticket that works.

Just remember, just the beginning, be careful, don't rush, take time, see how the relationship goes over time.

Don't be pushed, just do what needs to be done, and certainly DO NOT start sending money.

Again, take the time...

@Christopher ********
I was going to make fun of Internet dating but I need a ASQ in December and the first thing I need to do is see a dentist. Are they open there? Found out the earliest appointment here in London is February. I have been reeking since March and know a great one on Central Road. I know another at Asok. How much Bella charging?
Christopher *********
@Martin *****
Hi Martin, the Best Bella Hotel charge 45,000 + 2000 for airport pick-up you can get it cheaper but the sea view with balcony is a must for me. Still in hotel so not 100% sure on dentists being open but I would say they are as life is pretty much normal apart from it being empty.
Martin ******
@Christopher ********
I am still getting live feeds from Soi 6 Chris so I know how much of a ghost town it has become. I was down in January when the no Chinese signs went up. I am up near Nong Bue Lam Phu where it OK but no ASQs.

I don't fancy any the BBK hotels but was talking to the Maple where they have bands on in the bar at night and is about 39k.

The sea view and the balcony is a lot better than Rama Road with the traffic. I only want my teeth cleaned so it no problem. I have told wife to tell mother I go Wat after quarantine but my main focus is on the Scottish Cup final on the 20 Dec. So it's Soi Metro or O'Sheas. Thanks

You speak every day? Does she speak English well? So, you come to Thailand and see for yourself what everyone is speculating about. You are asking about visas and I don’t know. All I can say is I live here and LOVE it. Sure, I have been in love and out - and it reveals to me both how beautiful and wondrous Thai women are, and how much I can love. However it works out, I notice my love is real, and I have never stopped loving anyone though they have responded in many ways to me. If you get your heart broken you can be grateful you love, and unconditionally. If your dreams come true, and they will come true even better than you imagine, though not necessarily in the way you imagine, you will be grateful and happy. Either way you end up grateful. It’s an adventure - and you were only asking about visas lol.
Peter **********
Buyer beware 😐

You do realise many Thai women have multiple relationships taking cash from each guy? Hence the term 'friendgirls'. And that your dream lady will set about parting you from as much cash as possible as fast as possible?

Question: since when does it require 17K for tourist visa? I’m ok have work permit... just curious.
Jackaline ********
I say this as I am in hospital with bacterial pneumonia and I do have health insurance. - luckily.
Jim ********
@Jackaline *******
since they have just started to issue them again. Was the never the case before. It was 20,000 baht so £500
Jackaline ********
@Jim *******
17k USD? Do you have to produce it? Show bank statements? How will this kick start the Thai tourist economy? The few times I’ve been in Khao San area ii has been just awful. I’ve been going to a spa there for almost 15!years and they (as well as others ) have been crippled. We’re in the process of getting a spousal visa fir my husband - what a debacle that has been!
Jim ********
@Jackaline *******
yeh you have to provide bank statements for the last 6 months. I’m lucky and can produce statements but a lot can’t. It has been put in place to stop a mass amount of applications as the country doesn’t have enough ASQ hotel rooms to cope if there wasn’t some sort of financial requirement
Jackaline ********
@Jim *******
I’d have thought comprehensive COVID health insurance would be better. If my husband goes back to Oz without spousal visa, we’d be pushed to have this kind of documentation for him to visit. Mmmmm...
Jim ********
@Jackaline *******
comprehensive insurance and no quarantine? That would be foolish given the hard work Thailand have done over the last 8 months
Jackaline ********
@Jim *******
no no no.. sorry I didn’t mean that... of course quarantine but health insurance should be mandatory rather than blanket bank statement.
Jim ********
@Jackaline *******
plus health insurance is mandatory
Jackaline ********
@Jim *******
again did not know this. I’m a resident so have not had to get a post COVID tourist visa. My husband came for a visit in January and is still here on tourist visa, so no application for visa post COVID . Obviously much has changed.
Jim ********
@Jackaline *******
but then how would that reduce the tourist visa applications as insurance is affordable and having £12,800 in a current account for the last 6 months isn’t
Jackaline ********
@Jim *******
ok. I think we’re at cross /purposes. It was just a thought.
Jim ********
@Jackaline *******
Yeh what they are trying to do it open to tourists but only attract a limited number as they don’t have enough ASQ hotels to allow everyone in so this is a way to control the amount of applications that are processed. I’m guessing this will get reduced over time if there aren’t enough applications or have minimal new cases arise in Thailand
Jackaline ********
@Jim *******
I also read they were trying to limit the ‘dirty farang’ who are the backbone of some Thai places. A good Thai friend has a place near the Cambodian border and he is suffering - the less-monied but not totally cash-strapped we’re his bread and butter.
Jim ********

All these comments you think are rude or condescending are just there to help.

I live here and they lie to farang. She is probably married and they are getting your money. If you are already sending her money then it’s stupid. All Thais basically live together in a family. If so, she has very low expenses-if any. Thai women don’t go out and get apartments and live on their own like Americans. If y’all get married, you will be supporting her and her family. Sorry, but you will be an atm.

If you build or buy a house and car, they will be in her name unless you pay cash. When this happens, she will make you leave and everything will legally be hers.

Thai women are all over the internet. They like farang because they don’t cheat like Thai men. Thai men will have multiple wives along with their mistresses. Oh, and they all will know each other.

If she lives in a smaller town then you are definitely being fooled. If she doesn’t have a job then even more being fooled.

If she has a good job, her own car/motorbike, house and doesn’t dress like a slut then it might be real. Normal Thais wear very modest clothes. If she is skanking it up then she is looking for more men than you.

Be careful...this is from a woman that knows many, many men who have gotten taken. The stories I know are insane.

Good luck man. I hope it’s all true.

If you want to take the long way about - maybe easier to get her in your US than you come here. I think things will look before for you to come to Thailand 6 months or year. They're starting to open up to tourists, but not likely American tourists. Could try to get a job.

not for a tourist visa, that’s for a retirement visa. I am an American and I could be here 3 months without anything. I had a job but didn’t have that visa yet.

If it wasn’t for covid you could come here and do visa runs every three months and be fine.

You can always apply at the embassy to come here. You just have to quarantine for 2 weeks and pay for it which is a couple grand after it’s all done with.

Hey Greg,

I have married a Thai woman and we have a great relationship. We are partners, both work together and it's not always been easy but it's been good. However; I am in the minority. I made a video on Youtube about my friend from Australia. If you watch it, you will be better prepared. That being said, right now they are just letting spouces and family in. But, you could both meet in Japan which has favorable travel for Thais and Americans. Here is the video:

hi greg my advice to you is before you to far in. meet the girl in person. find out about her background. if you can meet the family at there home. take your time to get to know her. this is what i did 20 years ago and me and my thai wife have been married for 20 years and have a daughter. her family have been very good to us. we have 2 houses in issan and the family look after everything when we are in uk they have never asked a penny from me. but we make sure the family are looked after. my wife was not from the entertainment industry so maybe it was diffrent for me. i got to know her for 2 years before i decided to go to the next stage. you will always have the culture diffrence but you need to understand the thais look after there familys diffrent to farangs. the negative comments on her are from farangs that go straight to the bar hotspots get drunk and promise the world to the girl who then takes them to the cleaners. there are stupid farangs as well as thai. good luck mate. you need to understand the culture before you understand the thai girl

After many experiences some good mostly bad, I play them at their own game fuck them and throw them before they throw you,sorry to be crass but unless you meet Thai ladies who have a career, you are just an ATM even if she is genuine her family will not leave her alone,seen many Thai ladies torn apart between family and husband.They do not care about you my friend in UK her family ring her up and just ask for money all the time.The Thai ladies are just piggy in the middle sometimes,but 99% will choose their families over you.

You must be very careful. They Thai woman are very skilled at the art of con. Very skilled. Be prepared to loose alot of money. Not because of her but, to live a lifestyle you are a custom too and I would bet she has no idea what that is. You will be forced to pay to get the lifestyle you want. She may resist. She may be fragile as many are. So that means move to Issan country and live in the dirt or a low very standard Bangkok living. Good luck. Feel free to contact me.

Be very very careful or you will end up heartbroken and broke. I lived in Thailand with my husband for years (brits) and we have witnessed many such situations, you have to understand the culture to realise how this can happen to Farangs time and time again. Don’t send money, not even if she says she’s ill, or her motorcycle has been stolen, or she’s been evicted, nine and a half times out of ten it’s a con. Be aware. That said Thailand is a great country, with great people, but the women treat single men like an ATM

Hey Greg, i don't know how familiar you are with Thailand and Thai women. If you have never been to Thailand or had one or two short vacations and never had a relationship with a Thai lady, be careful. You need to meet and have relationships with at least a few Thai ladies before you know enough to choose someone for a long term relationship. It's ok to chat and facetime with someone because let's face it, we are all isolated and lonely in the middle of the pandemic. However, like someone else mentioned, don't send her any money. Don't make any long term plans or invest in this relationship more than you are prepared to lose.

If you have had $17,000 in your account consistently over the last 6 months, you can get a tourist visa now. Go to the thai embassy website for your state. Should have an option there. You will need a certificate of entry, a Covid negative test result 72hours prior to departure and and for to fly certificate from a doctor.

If you have a couple of weeks, why not go? Tourist visa is available for 60 days + extension 30 days possible. I made a guideline for my hotel guests, maybe useful for you even if you don't stay in our hotel. You can find the pdf file for download at

@William ******
that's what this post is all about. I'm trying to find a way to get to Thailand. Sounds like a tourist visa, except sounds like I need 17k in the bank for the last 6 mo the which I don't have.

I mistook part of what you said. I posted a photo in another comment. It’s for the STV not tourist visa. They cancelled the requirement for funds verification.

good luck bro! Hope it works out for you. Don’t listen to the grumpy ass old drunkard naysayers here. They have nothing better to do but troll Facebook shitfaced all day in their Chang tank top eating 99 baht breakfasts.

I can understand people being more positive aspect 🤔what’s wrong with Chang tank tops ? I personally like the whole collection of tank tops or singles not just stick to the Chang one 🧐

99 Baht breakfasts 🍳 can be hit or miss

The trolling Facebook being drunk all day is without a doubt a problem. Alcoholism is a massive problem in the expat community. Usually caused by drama or broken hearts.

Just stay clear of the drama, broken heart then broke I find it best not to get to serious with matters of the heart.

Just have fun and enjoy Thailand.

Always disclose this intention at the start I have found is best

just a shot of sarcasm and a poke at the stereotype of the old, fat, drunken expat that some many willfully portray. 😁😁

@Steve *********
Definitely I picked up on that 🤣🤣🤣

It’s actually quit sad in a lot of ways that people do get taken for the entire life savings from a lot of these scams.

There is actually a handbook for the lady’s to know how to play their mark.

Heaps of these lost souls literally end up in the gutter and deported because of overstays back to a special pice of hell back in the very same countries they were running away from. Welcomed back home “parties” with condescending relatives who just say “ I told you so “ or “ saw that coming “ then the depression really begins. This is the real unseen and not talked about results of these scams.

It’s not that I’m discouraging relationships it’s just please people do some research on the basics. If one wants to make the big commitment then do the research and talk to a lawyer.

I heard heaps of stories like this because from the toilet in my apartment I had in Bangkok I had a heap of girls living on my floor. They would meet in the hallway sometime more than 5 just calling all these guys everywhere with all the excuses. They were in the hall because they wouldn’t smoke in their rooms but chain smoke, drink, make phone calls asking for money from what it seemed like every contact in their phones. Once a week they would throw away all the flowers they got from their admirers. Wasn’t easy to miss like two full size garage cans overflowing with these flowers. I did see and read some of the cards because once it’s in the trash it’s no longer private property. All the cards had different names from sooo many men and sometimes even woman. Was like a “Boiler Room” or a “Boiler Hallway” and my toilet window faced the hallway and since most of the hall was made of concrete and tiles sound carries. I would spend literally hours listening and this was usually started Monday night and went to Friday night. Weekends and some weeknights were for work. It was something else and I had to walk by multiple times a day they would be having some kind of cook outs with top quality food and alcohol. With desktops and laptops. They were very calculating usually starting at 10-30k depending on how vetted the “mark” it was on !

It was something else. This wasn’t a win off for them it was their “job” I will give credit for the work ethic.

That’s why I would be very weary of starting anything seriously. Other than being in the “Friend Zone”

Actually I tell them that.

Americans can now apply for a single entry tourist visa. There are some new criteria to meet compared to the regular process however. Or you can also apply for the Elite visa.
