Hello👋🏻 , m planning my first ever trip to thailand where i would preferably stay for a year at least as a remote worker ( I don’t make 2700$/month for a DTV ) , should i just go visa free for 90 days then leave and get a 90 visa for a total of 6 months ? Is there any better options ? I heard people take muai thai classes for a full year visa. Any help would be much appreciated 🙏🏻
TLDR : Answer Summary
The user is planning a year-long trip to Thailand as a remote worker but does not meet the income requirement for a Digital Nomad Visa (DTV). They are considering starting with a visa-free entry for 90 days, followed by obtaining a METV for 6 months. Advice shared in the comments suggests entering as a tourist to explore different locations before committing, noting there is no monthly income requirement for the DTV, only a 500K THB bank balance. The user expresses concern about the 500K requirement and considers starting with a visa-free entry.
