ORIGINAL POSTERTLDR : Answer Summary
The earliest you can apply for a tourist visa to Thailand if you're planning to fly out on January 6th is generally advised to be around the beginning of October, as you can submit your application anytime now. The tourist visa is valid for 90 days from the date of issue, and you have 90 days to enter Thailand once it's issued. Some commenters suggest waiting a week or two due to bugs in the ThaiPass system, and there are concerns about overloading the application system, especially for those traveling soon.
90 DAY REPORTING RESOURCES / SERVICES
- Use the trusted Thailand 90 Day Reporting Service to get your in-person report done and mailed to you for as low as 375 THB (even if the online system doesn't work for you).
- For immediate assistance, contact Thai Visa Centre directly via LINE at @ThaiVisaCentre or Email them.
- Join the Thai Visa Advice Facebook Group to ask your questions, and get advice from others.
