Closed the loop today at MTT.

Was stamped til 26th which is 60 days from the date I went in (even though I’ve read people being stamped in until 29th).

They didn’t ask to see my online booking.

It was super quiet and I was in and out in under 10 minutes.

If you are coming out here today the traffic is shocking as is the air quality!

Hi! This is a great group! Could you share how long did it take to get your METV? Does it take around the same time as SETV? Thanks in advance.

I have a question regarding the immigration stamp. When I re-entered thailand, I got a 'Out-A' stamp which I did not get before. Does anyone know what this means?

Some background information. Not sure if it's helpful or not. I have been studying thai in Thailand for about 1.5 years. The first 1 year 2 months, I had an ED-Visa. The other 4 months I had a normal visa-exempt in which I had to do a border run. For the last 6 months of my studies, I studied in Chula.

Hi all. So I'm making a big plan to travel across Thailand, Vietnam, Laos, Indonesia, the Philippines and Cambodia. I'm pretty sure I'm going to want an eSim. Anyone got any recommendations? Calls and texts are not really needed , the priority is data and lots of it! Ideally with 5G too but that's not essential. Cheers 👍

My boyfriend’s arrival date is 17 Jan, arrive at 12:10 hr BKK. He’s coming under Test and Go which was approved before the suspension. I know that flight can be postponed but not more than 72 hours after the original flight. Due to personal reason, he has to change his flight to 20 Jan instead with the same flight number. But his flight on 20 Jan(EY406) will do stop over in Phuket for 1:30 hrs which makes his arrival in BKK 13:10 hr. That makes 73 hrs after the original flight even though he will arrive in Phuket at 10:10 hr. I called ThailandPass call center, but he cannot confirm that this is acceptable or not. He said that the it depends on the immigration officer at the airport or the department of disease control’s staff. Anyone had this similar problem? Please kindly share 😢 Thank you in advance.

Hello :-) I am just wondering if anybody here has had experience with travelling into Thailand on an Emergency Travel Document? I had my passport stolen in Bali, been to the British Consulate here to get my EDT, and plan to fly back to Thailand on 30th. Usually your EDT is to get you back to your home country, unless you have proof of residence elsewhere. I have my work permit and hope this is enough? Nobody seems to really know the answer. I am hoping somebody else has done this and can advise me? I just need to get a 30 day stamp in which time I can sort a new passport from UK embassy in BKK and plan a visa run for my new non-B!

Thanks everyone!

I am Canadian. Is it even worth getting a METV now that there is the 60 day Visa Exemption ?
