Agreed. Re-entry problems start at 90 day overstay as long as you are not arrested and prosecuted. It never looks good to have an overstay stamp a,ND an Elite visa will be out of the question.

I think I did read something about that. I do think I see a variety of officials trying to get themselves out of a painted corner. In the end the general will call the shots. The number one focus of Thai tourism has always been the Chinese. Thailand currently requires a very expensive 14 day quarantine and people from China and some other countries can only get 14 days in Thailand as a tourist. What could go wrong? :-)

Best of luck to you and your family.

Thanks Barry. I do know the current situation and have a Thai national friend who returned home and went through the whole process. My 98 percent comment was more about if the govt tries to open up tourism without dealing with the quarantine requirement. The Thai govt have painted themselves into a corner. I have heard of ideas such as doing away with quarantine if tourists travel in your groups and only to certain southern islands. They might get a few Chinese which is I am sure what they are after but it does nothing for Bangkok, Pattaya or Chiang Mai

@Barry ******

Agreed if choosing to stay there. 98 percent will stay home.

An extremely expensive jail that you get to pay for.

The answers are a bit complex. One element is that different imm offices act a bit differently. A second element is that if you have no need to go to immigration than you will not have a problem. If you do need to go to immigration for something like an extension and they determine what they have on the computer is wrong then you will be fined even though it is not your responsibility. It would be up to you to take it up with your landlord. I know it is not possible now but if doing a border bounce you will want the info to be updated as your exit number will be different. If travelling in country then it is useful to know if the place or places you are staying have filed a new TM30 for you. If you are travelling a short distance in the same province it is likely fine. If you travel to a different province you may run into immigration might question why you are not going to immigration in that other province.

OK. Sorry. I did not have the time to read the whole thread although I knew there was a chance I might be repeating.

@Andrew ******

I am pretty sure you are correct. The one difference, I think? Is that a Thai national can quarantine at a Thai facility or one of the expensive Bangkok quarantine hotels.. My understanding is that non Thais can only use the hotels. I have no idea what they are going to do with migrant workers...

I have a Thai national friend who had spent the last year in USA that just finished quarantine a week ago. I have to assume it would be the same for a Thai coming from UK.
