When does the 5-year validity of a Thai visa begin?
When does the 5 year start, is it on the date the visa gets approved or once you make your first DTV entry into Thailand? Thanks.
Answer summary
The 5-year validity period for a Thai visa begins on the date the visa is approved, not on the date of the first entry into Thailand.
