Hello everyone - maybe a bit of a weird one 🐶

But, I am hoping of making a long term move to Thailand going down the DTV route but initially coming in as a tourist. I’ve been preparing my dog for a move (she came with me from Mexico > Europe) but just noticed that the import certificate is only valid for 60 days.

Does anyone know if these dog import certificates can be extended or have experience with owning a “foreign” dog in Thailand for a period longer than 60 days? Or can dogs do “visa runs” too, seems unlikely as paperwork is so difficult to import/export in the first place.

Any advice super appreciated! Already reached out to Relo4Pets just waiting for them to get back to me and was curious to see if anyone else has been through this 🐶✨

What is involved in bringing a dog here (from USA) for tourist visit?

Please be gentle, we are confusing ourselves, our heads are spinning 😵‍💫🥴

Thank you all for your guidance so far, alas we still need to ask questions so apologise for sounding like we are going around in circles

Long story short, we live in the Uk, both over 50, our home has been valued, we are selling and we have a buyer lined up. We have a dog who will be coming with us and my private pension will be funding our lifestyle

We were going down the family elite visa 800,000 thb for 2 people for a 5yr visa. Alas I understand that visa has now been removed 😳

Our goal is to live in Thailand for between 5 and 8 years after which we might move to Indonesia (unless we have fully settled in Thailand)

We do not want to have health insurance due to my complex medical record

We are wanting to use part of the equity in our home to pay for our visa for Thailand but we do not want to have to wait until it has sold and we have the equity in the bank to then start the process

Is there a way where we can we arrive with our dog, on a one way ticket within weeks of selling our home (October/ beginning of November this year), then once the equity has landed in our account pay (whilst in Thailand) for anything/ everything we need, even if that means initially staying in an dog friendly condo/ guest house

Thank you for your understanding and help
