Hello everyone,

In the past, many people with extensive visas, or visa runs, extensions, etc. were sometimes given a hard time trying to enter the country at some airports.

Reading through the posts it seems all are getting through now without any issues when a DTV is obtained.

Have there been any reports of immigration officers at airports giving people a hard time during entry with a DTV if they had a prior extensive entry history?

Also, is it necessary to carry in 10,000 baht (or more) or the equivalent while going back to Thailand?

I have an electronic LTR visa and have entered twice. Each time I enter it takes some time for them to figure what it is all about. Then I am stamped through. I guess there is no way around this?

Hi! I’m planning to apply for a SETV in Sweden and go to Thailand in November. I am a Swedish citizen.

Do you think I will have any issues entering Thailand given my previous history? My last visit was in October 2018 and I left the country on March 20th (total stay of 5.5 months, consisting of 1 SETV + extension, 1 visa exemption + extension, 1 visa exemption). Do you think they will find my previous entries alarming? Do you think there is a high probability that they will ask for the three proofs?

Thanks!

Every day there are reports of people being refused entry often due to many visa exempts or visas even though they meet requirements. Silly question, if they dont want people in Thaiand using multiple entries why do they not just limit the entries so its not possible? At least then people would know and not get bloody stranded. Maybe force some to get correct visas also? They need to sort the bloody mess out there are so many inconsistencies. Rant over.
