Has anyone applied for the LTR visa for remote workers? Is this something I should apply for before entering Thailand, or can I enter with a tourist visa and then apply?

TLDR : Answer Summary
The LTR visa for remote workers can be applied for either before entering Thailand or while on a tourist visa. It is advisable to apply immediately, as it is free of charge until you pick up the visa. The processing time is approximately 2-3 months. Once approved, you can choose to collect the visa either at a Thai embassy or in Bangkok, with the latter being more cost-effective and convenient.

Apply immediately even if you're just thinking about it. It's free to apply and you don't pay anything until you're actually picking up your visa.

It can take 2-3 months to process your application.

Once you're approved you then choose how you want to get your visa, either apply at your Thai embassy or pick it up in Bangkok.

Much better to get it in Bangkok so you have an actual visa in your passport rather than carrying around a printed sheet of paper for 10 years, and more importantly it's much cheaper. In Bangkok you'll pay 50,000 baht exactly. The embassies are charging hundreds of dollars more than what you'd pay in Bangkok.
