What does "unofficial" mean in the context of Thai visa regulations?

The term "unofficial" in the context of Thai visa regulations refers to laws or policies that have been discussed or proposed but are not legally binding until they are published in the Royal Gazette. Current discussions highlight that certain proposed visa changes, such as a return to a 14-day Visa on Arrival for Indians, are still in draft form and lack official status until finalized. Many commenters also express concerns about the implications of such changes and the handling of illegal tour guides.
