ORIGINAL POSTERHi, Hope everyone is ok. I just wanted to ask for a help if anyone knows about it. I am flying to thailand on 6th of MAY and I got visa which says “ Must be used by 10th of May” my question is “ Is this the expiry date of visa or last date for entry in thailand. Thanks in Advance.
TLDR : Answer Summary
The phrase 'Must be used by 10th of May' on your visa indicates the last date for entering Thailand. You need to enter the country by this date, after which the visa will no longer be valid for entry.

The visa allows you to enter Thailand on or before the 10th May. Upon arrival you’ll be stamped in for 60 days.
