What is the status of the new DTV visa in Thailand?

Why is everyone so unappreciative of Thailand 🇹🇭?

You are here, aren’t you? Or, you’re about to come here?

Just go with the flow and stop complaining, people!

This is a beautiful country and may not be run as Trump or Biden would run it - God help us all, if that was going to be the case!!!

Stop complaining and enjoy this beautiful country and it’s people 💕

Your all wishful thinkers

We shouldn't be surprised that little thought went into this new visa before it was announced. Another half arsed idea with immi offices everywhere seemingly not aware of it.

People have obviously read the incorrect article about 180+180 days per year. That's not correct. It's just one time per 5 years. Cost: ฿10k/180 days.

So my understanding is 180 days exit then return same calendar year. Just pay B1900 on return.

This is probably too good to be true.

I went to the immigration office in Thailand and the entire office had no idea what I’m talking about. I just got a 30 days extension and left.

Funny how Phelps was driving the vaccine now she’s the opposite. They are trying to save their arse now.

Gullible.

They won't implement anything that makes life easy for unwelcome FARANGS!

maybe, maybe not 😉

As it stands now nothing is official yet. The details, and requirements, are being refined. Currently the visa will have a bt10,000 fee, and a bank deposit for the length of the entry of bt500,000, then bt10,000 for each extension. Most are not aware of this bank deposit proposed requirement. Most every long term visa has a financial requirement, and this will be no different.

They recently revised it. Now you have to provide four pints of blood, a chicken sandwich and your firstborn gerbil. Pending governmental approval

yes I was looking forward to it as they mentioned it could be used for medical travel .. but haven't heard ..why Thailand doesn't push Medical travel ??

Have to wait until you see it announced in the Royal Gazette. And it has not appeared there yet.

Dee or, dee or. Wait more. 55. 🤞✌️😉🙏

What embassy has posted that ?

This is not a new pattern … only about 10% of announcements actually become law, and these are almost always late. Patience is your friend.

No, nothing was supposed to start 1st July.

The Prime Minister's office announced that some of the "short term" measures may start end of June or early July, but the DTV is not one of the short term measures.

All of the items are still just a proposal, and no one knows if or when any of them will actually become reality. There have been dozens of times just since covid where big announcements were made and the media published tons of clickbait articles as if they were already a done deal, only for no one to ever hear of them again.

Don't count on anything until it's published as law in the royal gazette. Until then it's just a rumor.

Its not been fully approved yet as far as I understand

I heard it was getting implemented 1 Oct

It's not been approved and not available. No one knows when or if they will start it.

This has held up my entire life waiting on this. Can’t even plan anything else because it’s all depending on how the 180days is structured
