Hi all…. Basic question so apologies if been asked / obvious. Does the 5 year period start when you get the visa… or from your first entry? Trying to plan ahead and work out the best time for me to apply. Thanks 😉
Answer summary
The 5-year period for a Thai visa starts from the date the visa is issued, not from the date of the first entry into Thailand.
