I know exactly how the Thais work mate. It sounds like you don’t at all. There is no way they will completely restructure the entire immigration department and extension for a multi entry visa, for whatever random reason you’ve come up with in your head. We will go in, get an extension. Done. Might be a headache, but there is no precedence they change visas after the fact. They might cancel it. But it is a 180 day visa with 180 day extension. Period.

We will go to immigration, like all other visas, apply for an extension and pay the fee.

The idea they would repeal all the visas and change the conditions is absoluyely ludacris. It is a five year visa with 180 days + 180 day extension. So 360 days. Without any precedent or reason to say they would ‘randomly’ take this back or cancel them when they have never done that, ever, is totally rediculous. You either have an agenda or you have no clue what you are talking about.

Do you know what time frame can you get it in? 1-2 weeks away from expiration or earlie?

They will ask you for 1900 baht and give you an extension stamp. There’s no way the entire function and structjre of the immigration department will change for this visa. It is far more likely the visa just goes away.

I’m not saying this literally, obviouslg I have no idea just logically I wouldn’t plan your life around it.

Dude, the elite visa is 900,000 baht and this is the EXACT dame for 10,000. That can’f stay the same. Multiple other reasons. It’s just so obviously not going to be around forever, no way.

We already know that. Once you have it you have it. You extend or leave after 180 days for another 180. Whether it will still be around in 5 years though, I highly doubt. Lucky for us that got it, but very unlikely to be around (in the current price point and form) soon enough. Is at least how I think everyone should approach it.
