Hey 👋 Has anyone had a DVT visa and then had a new passport, did it need transfering or could you stamp out on your old passport and then the new stamp coming back would go into the new passport ?

🙏

Hello everyone,

I applied for a tourist e-visa online (Feb 13th)and by 18th of March (over a month), I received a request for additional documents. Since my departure flight to Bangkok is next week, do you think my visa will be approved in time? Has anyone experienced a similar situation, and do you have any advice?

Me and my gf are coming to Thailand in February for 30 days and just noticed the airline didn’t put my middle name on my ticket but here has it. Is this gonna be an issue? I contacted the airline and they said they can’t change it or all my connecting flights will cancel my ticket.

I am going back to Immigration on later this month to get my 1 year extension of stay.

So I am in the "Under Consideration" stage of it all.

But before this I have been requested to be a travel-buddy for someone who has never flown before before I get my stamp.

It would be a 1-2 day thing and I would be back in good time before I am supposed to go to Immigration to get my finalized stamp.

Would this be a problem?

Hello everyone....when you apply for a metv, do you have to take the flight with a return within 60 days or can I take it with a return within 6 months (approximately)? This point is not clear to me....From what I understood, speaking to the agency, I can make a reservation in order to obtain the visa but this is still not clear to me....And in any case if I'm not mistaken, I will have to take an open ticket to change the return and this will lead to additional costs each time to postpone the return and change it.... If someone can advise me, especially the cheapest solution, I would be really grateful....have a good day.....

Hi Everyone

Looking for some guidance. We are booking a 3 week trip end of this year and have been talking to a local tour operator. He is going to arrange hotels internal flights and trips out from various locations. We have a driver/guide with us for about 17 days and the vehicle has air con. Trip includes 5 days in Bangkok with 4 days of tours then flight to ching mai for 5 nights with 3 days of tours 1 night in Chiang rai with 2 days of tours then flight to Phuket for 8 nights staying at Bang Tao beach. This costs £6200. Does this seem reasonable

Thanks for any comment first trip to Thailand

Steve
