ORIGINAL POSTERThe new STV was delayed "indefinitely" 2 days before it was set to launch. Also, no refunds for any applications or expenses paid.
TLDR : Answer Summary
Recently, the launch of Thailand's new Special Tourist Visa (STV) was delayed indefinitely just two days before its debut, leaving many applicants frustrated, especially with the announcement that no refunds will be issued for any costs incurred. This has sparked a wave of comments from the expat community, expressing dissatisfaction with the Thai government's handling of the situation and concerns about the overall impact on tourism and expatriates living in Thailand.
