I am flying EVA London-Bangkok at the end of December, returning end of March. One month Northern Thailand, one month Laos and the last month in Southern Thailand. What do I do about proof of onward travel? Has anyone had any experience of flying EVA? Do they even ask for proof? Would a bus ticket Non Khai-Vientiane suffice or do I need a flight ticket out of the Country? Any advice would be appreciated 🙏

Requesting permission to post this video from Integrity Legal. Seems like Benjamin Hart has a real problem with this visa (and by extension, his friend, Barry Kenyon from the Pattaya Mail), believing such things as, 1) no in-country extensions will be possible; 2) it will lead to an influx of Westerners and other foreigners that will "disrupt" the Thai way of life and 3) that it can't be used for de facto residence in Thailand. 4) That Thailand based employment would be allowed when this visa was first announced (I don't remember that claim at all).

Firstly, for 1) it's too early to say what will happen. Let's wait and see and stop with the endless back and forth speculation. For 2) that's complete nonsense; only a few thousand DTVs have been approved, that's a drop in the ocean compared to the millions of tourists that have entered Thailand since the DTV became available in mid July. Not to mention there have probably been thousands more agent assisted extensions of stay for retirement, marriage and other purposes issued in that time. 3) Why would the DTV be different to a multiple entry non-imm visa? Other than some land borders possibly insisting on a night or two outside of the country between visits (especially if you "max out" the nearly 6 month stay limit) I don't see why DTV holders won't be able to come and go as freely as multiple entry non-imm B and O holders have been so far. 4) Sounds like he's making that up or has misunderstood something.

Hello.

German guy here… I have now 60days visa exemption/ visa on arrival when I arrive via international flight. I am looking for information if it’s the same or not when I enter Thailand via land border. I was reading that it’s the same but I just found one article that says so. German auswärtiges Amt or Thai embassy have no helpful/ clear information about that (or I am not able to find it)

Thx in advance.

Hi all, i just wanted to check what is the current status for Indian passport holders right now, are they still giving the visa exempt on arrival in Thailand, or they made some recent change. I am asking because online i am seeing many contradictory information, so i am not sure what is the exact current situation. Much thanks in anticipation it Tod could give a reply to this.

Why? So many rumours and stuff even in seemingly legit news outlets?? It's about a long(er) VISA and could seriously impact lives negatively ;*()

Text/ screenshot reads: soft Power DTV need to re produce another letter/ proof about soft Power activity to Extend the first 189 (sic!) days....?!

PS: can you recommend good Websites with more factual..fatcs? 555

How long will the new 60 day entry last. Maybe for the rest of this Year? Does anyone know?

Hello everyone and thank you for accepting me into the group. I’m John from Scotland UK.

I’ve read many comments and answers and I have to say it’s the most pleasant and accommodating group I’ve seen for a long time.

Well done to the mods and members.

I have a few questions but I’ll just start with two for now.

Q1. In the past I got a 30 day visa exemption on arrival and only ever stayed for 30 days. Do you now get a 60 day stamp on arrival?

Q2. If that is the case is there any benefit in applying for a 60 day Tourist Visa online before arriving?

Thank you in advance.

Any speculation about when they'll announce the new Visa policies.

I need to apply for a new visa but it seems pointless if they're going to change visa exempt timelines.

The thai consulates in Sydney and Canberra went LIVE on the eVisa online application system today

Sadly there is no longer an option to get a year-long, multi-entry Non-O from either consulate (the system defaults to single entry and you cannot select multi

Good news though, there has been NO price increase in the visa fees at this time
