Hello I would need some advice as for the Tourist visa 60days, after from approval when does the visa start? 

1. From the date of approval?

Or

2. From the date arriving in Thailand?

Regards

Answer summary

A single-entry tourist visa for Thailand is valid for 3 months from the date of issue, allowing you to enter Thailand at any point within that period. Upon entry, you will receive a 60-day stay, regardless of whether you enter on the last day of the visa's validity.

This question comes up a LOT

A single entry tourist visa is VALID for 3 months from the date they issue the visa <- that means you have that long (3 months) to ENTER thailand

When you do enter thailand you will be stamped in for 60 days, (even if you enter the last day the visa is valid for you still get the 60 day entry that visa affords you)
