@Sabine ********
If you do that once, you will be fine. But if you try to do that several times in a short amount of time (especially when staying close to the full 60 days each), problens when trying to cross the border can occur.

@Richard *******
Yeah. Not sure why. But it is like this for many years. Since the E-Visa system they ask for this with every visa application. Maybe, because it has got the current home address in Germany printed on it.

@Tommy ****
Yes. In countries participating in the E-Visa system, it will be an E-Visa. In other countries, it will be a paper sticker. But Thailand aims at rolling out E-Visa globally now.

@Richard *******
Depends on your consulate / locaiton. In Germany, our national ID card does the trick. Other countries: driving license, utility bills.

I am sure many will try. But I would wait for the respective consulate near you to publish more details about requirements. I doubt that a one day cooking class will qualify for a 5 year visa. From what I have heard, any course / class of at least 6 months length might.

@Ulrik ********
Then all is good. 😊 Everbody can chose. Maybe you had in turn a chance to enjoy Thailand before the masses back then.

Or just wait a few more days for your local consulates to clarify what kind of proof they accept. I also believe certain minimums of “soft power” activities will have to be met. But in general, yes: you attend something for a few months but will get a 5 year visa. That is what it is.

They don’t ask for proof of either flight or accommodation (anymore). So, just mention a flight you aim at taking and a place you will likely book.

Not true. 180 days out and back in as often as you like. Or optionally 180 days + another 180 days extension possible at every entry. Please read the extensive information and laws I shared in previous posts.
