Hi sorry not sure if this has been answered!

Under the new 60 day visa exempt entry for tourists, is it still necessary to apply for an METV?

I was planning to use Thailand as a base from August-November, and during that time visit other countries in Asia every 4/5 weeks by AIR. I thought I’d need to get an METV originally, but am I right in assuming the new visa exemption doesn’t require it?

Of course I understand it’ll still depend on the IO.

thanks for any kind advise or suggestions.
