I thought I had posted this earlier but it has not appeared so apologies if it appears twice but more likely I made a hash of the first attempt. I applied in the UK for a Non Immigrant O over 50 multi entry Visa last week to come to Thailand from November 2021 until 30th April 2022 and paid the £150 fee.
Today I received my PDF type Visa but it is puzzling me as to exactly what it is. It says Visa Type Tourist TR, Travel Multiple, Length of stay in Thailand 60 days. Previously when getting one of these Visas I had 90 days and then a border crossing was required. Can anyone please enlighten me to what I actually now have. The only reason I applied for a multiple entry was that I may wish to visit my sister in Perth WA while in Thailand but that may not be possible due to the restrictions in WA. My Visa now comes with one of those square bar code things and I am not entirely sure what to do next. I know I need to book my flights etc but I'm afraid my current knowledge on modern computer stuff is limited.
Thank you in anticipation of a reply.
TLDR : Answer Summary
The user applied for a Non Immigrant O over 50 multi-entry visa but received a visa labeled as a Tourist TR with a 60-day stay. They are confused as this differs from their previous experience where they received a 90-day visa. A comment clarifies that the user has obtained a Multi-entry Tourist Visa (METV), allowing a 60-day entry with an option for a 30-day extension. They must comply with entry requirements, including obtaining a Thailand Pass.
