Anybody driving the Embassy mad over this STV, I really wouldn't bother them. Here is an email from earlier today

UPDATED 16.09.2020 - 13:50 BKK Time

We would like to provide you this updated information.

The Thai government cabinet has just approved the policy to allow longstay tourists to enter Thailand with the Special Tourist Visa (STV Visa).

The Centre for Covid-19 Situation Administration and all the other government ministries and agencies are currently working on the detailed requirements. However, we are now able to share the following information to you:

When this longstay tourists program can officially begin, 1 - 3 chartered flights will be allowed to land in Thailand per week with an estimation to bring in 1,200 longstay tourists per month.

Every longstay tourist must quarantined at a government approved ASQ or ALSQ hotel accommodation for 14 days.

Each Longstay tourist will be granted a Special Tourist Visa which will allow him or her to stay in Thailand for 90 days including the 14 days quarantine procedure.

This Special Tourist Visa can be extended 2 times each time as a 90 day extension. Therefore, the maximum total stay is 270 days.

As the representative of the Tourism Authority of Thailand, we will process and help you with your application documents. We will send your documents to the Ministry of Foreigner Affairs. Once you have received the approval, we will let you know so you can get your Special Tourist Visa and your Certificate on Entry at your nearest Thai Embassy or Consulate. At the Thai embassy/Consulate, you will still need to get the Fit to Fly Medical Certificate proving that you do not have Covid19 [members only]

Right now, the requirements to obtain this Special Tourist Visa are:

1. Payment and Booking Confirmations of ASQ/ALSQ quarantine accommodation and accommodation after 14 days quarantine. Payment and Booking Confirmation of accommodation after 14 days quarantine are not needed if the tourist show proof of a property ownership in Thailand or has a close relative who has a property in Thailand. Proof of Rental Agreement can also be used. (We still need to wait for Centre for Covid-19 Situation Administration and all the other government ministries and agencies for more further details on the exact requirements)

2. Proof of a medical insurance that covers at least 100,000 USD for medical expense related to Covid19. (We still need to wait for Centre for Covid-19 Situation Administration and all the other government ministries and agencies for more further details on the exact requirements)

3. Pass criminal record check with the Royal Thai Police

We will also be assisting you with providing medical insurance and accommodation options for both ASQ/ALSQ quarantine and after quarantine.

Furthermore, we are still waiting for Centre for Covid-19 Situation Administration to set the policy on passengers from which countries will be allowed to come to Thailand as a longstay tourists.

We look forward to hear from you soon.

Yours Sincerely,

Armaj Sombunjaroen (Flash)

Thai Longstay Management Company Limited
