ORIGINAL POSTER

There seems to be less (almost none) reports of denied entries than usual across the different groups and forums lately. Although still reports of issues getting visas at surrounding embassies. 

Perhaps Big Oud's big statement last month is having an effect? 😅

TLDR : Answer Summary

Recent discussions indicate a noticeable decrease in reported denied entries into Thailand, with many suggesting that a previous significant statement by an official may be influencing this trend. However, there are still ongoing challenges regarding visa applications at surrounding embassies, particularly concerning the scrutiny of travel history.

Yet we received no credit 😁 Yes. It is true for most nationalities but they are still looking at the travel history and issuing warnings first 👍🏻
