Hi we are thinking about staying in Thailand for a year, both retired. We would leave Thailand every 5 months then come back. With all the drama over the crackdown on border runs etc, what is the best way forward? Which visa?

Edit Australian both over 60yrs.

Hello,

I hold a METV and i Applied for DTV in Jakarta and the embassy asked me to contact the issuing embassy to cancel the METV. I already contacted the issuing embassy and they say they can’t cancel the visa. I’ve seen some people managed to cancel their METV. Could you please share how you managed that? Could you please share what proof of voided visa looks like so i can share with the issuing embassy?

Don’t know if anyone can help but if you can thank you. Is there a way you can come to Thailand for 6 months a year. My wife and I would like to do this from the UK.

We are both retired 😊👍

In a previous post of mine it was mentioned that getting a METV raises suspicions to the immigration officer if arriving before on visa exempt. Is that correct? Am I actually better coming again on a visa exemption? I thought with an METV it would be a breeze. Will be visiting from the UK , January -March (60 days) and May-July(60 days).

Possible to obtain a new METV 3 months after you have used the last extension on a prior METV ?

Good morning!

I lieve in Hua Hin with an METV -Visa for 6 month and have to leave the country every 2 month. Clear.

Do I need a Reentry-permit for these "bordertrips?"

Thank you!

Good morning!

I live in Hua Hin for 6 month with a METV and has to leave the country every 2 month. This is clear?

Do I need a reentry permit any time with this visa?

Thank you.

Hi everyone,

Has anyone done a same-day border run in the last day or two?

I have a METV and I’m scheduled to go with Chiang Mai Border Run tomorrow, but they just notified me that their “collaborating immigration officer” won’t be on duty, so same-day re-entry isn’t guaranteed at the moment due to the unstable immigration rules.

I’m concerned because I’m not prepared for a 2-night stay, and my current extension is only valid until 11/26. Any recent experiences or advice would be really appreciated.

Thank you!

Hi I’m arriving this Wednesday with my newly acquired METV . Can I ask if my passport will be stamped in the same format as my previous ones ( which were the tourist exempt stamps ) or will my stamp be different ?

I’m only asking in order that when I pass through immigration I can check I have been given the correct stamp and duration of 60 days as I understand if I don’t check before leaving the immigration desk I can’t change it later if it’s incorrect.

Please guys no acidic or rude comments about this subject as this is a concern for an overthinker like me . Thanks in advance 👍
