Hello visa's hua hin community,
Hope you're all doing well and your safe in Thailand. I would like to ask for your help, recommendations, experiences, suggestions on the following issue:
We are a family planning to move to Thailand in December. We are from the Netherlands. We have a thai company in BKK, but we lived in Netherlands for the past years, so we don't have the working permits anymore. Now we were initially planning to arrive with the new STV (special tourist visa) but I just contacted the thai embassy in the Netherlands and they say Dutch person can't apply for this visa now, because Netherlands is a high risk country now. Does anybody have any ideas, what kind of way we could come to Thailand in December? We already have a yearly rental contract for our house in Hua Hin. The children will go to the interenational school in Hua Hin and we work in Shanghai and Singapore, so no active business activity in Thailand for now. Any idea, suggestions, help is welcome. Please PM me. Thanks!
TLDR : Answer Summary
A family from the Netherlands plans to move to Thailand in December but faces challenges due to current visa restrictions, specifically the inability to apply for the Special Tourist Visa due to the Netherlands being classified as a high-risk country. They seek advice and alternatives to enter Thailand, considering options such as business visas, guardian visas for their children attending international school, or the Thai Elite visa as potential solutions.
