I applied for a visa (and i get it - multiple entry tourist visa), but I won't be entering the country when I originally planned (both the date and the entry airport will change). Will this cause any issues? Should i apply for a new visa?
thank you
Answer summary
Changing your entry date and airport for a multiple entry tourist visa (METV) will not cause any issues, as long as you enter Thailand within the six-month validity period of the visa after its issuance. The only impact of delaying your entrance is that it reduces the total time available to use the METV.
