What are the pros and cons of getting a volunteer visa in Thailand?

i saw some talk on here about volunteer visas…If someone got one recently please pm me….I have a few questions

It has worked out well for me.

Before Covid I was doing back-to-back tourist visa, except I will actually travel some place for a couple of weeks, then come back. So the volunteer visa isn't very expensive.

I have no experience with the Covid exception or whatever it is, I think those folks have to file paper work, get paper work from Embassy, visit the immigration office every 90 days to do some more paperwork and wait every 3 months to see if the Thai government will extend the program.

With volunteer visa I just show up every 90 days... file a piece of paper, done.

It maybe a little sketchy - but this is Thailand.

Me I volunteer to buy 8 acres,to built a house ,a 6 unit resort,2 pools N more farm land ,for my Thai wife.almost built all by myself. And pay for it.that is volunteer,🙏👍🇨🇷🇨🇦👋😘

As far as I know, volunteer visa and religion visa are very troubled, in another word, that’s likely illegal, so pls be careful with the immigration where you can get your volunteer visa

Working is better. Be selfish.

Do you wqnt a volunteer visa to work at the volunteer organisation or is it the dodgy one where you do know work at the org, pay a hefty fee to and agent just to stay in the country?
