@Klaus *****

Huh, feeling ok there? From dimension are you pulling these weird allegations about false claims?

@Paul ******

nope lol. Can we please stop this fear mongering now? As with most western countries, AU has a double tax agreement with Thailand. If you tax on it in AU, you don't tax on it in TH. These new tax enforcement has zero impact on 99% of foreigners.

is the 20k baht equivalent and proof of accommodation for first days scrapped as required (when asked)

@Zoe *****

obviously internet speed matters when you work remotely. And unstable internet is a thing in SE Asia. (Not in Thailand though). Nothing remotely funny about that

@Soph ******

oh my 🙄how far are you going to dig yourself into this? Your not exactly doing yourself a favor now….

💁‍♂️🍿

@Soph ******

ohh my, one of those. Yeah spewing judgement without knowledge is most definitely nasty. Maybe read your own comment again eh? Sad.

Easy to sit on a high horse and pass judgement behind a keyboard …

@Ivan ******

thats the exact reason its not ok….

@Soph ******

why be so judgmental, especially when you have no clue about the situation? Just nasty….

@Paul ******

both start counting from issue date….There’s no difference other than 90 vs 180 days

Depending on which embassy processing, but my METV E-visa took 48 hours to get approved. Usually I hear up to a week, but can take several weeks.

"Is the expiration of the Mutti-Entry Visa 6 months upon first entry or not?"

It is not! It is even explained in the screenshot you posted. See snip from one of my METV visa documents...

The 6 months period start counting from when you receive the visa approval, NOT from when you enter Thailand! The PDF you receive via E-visa system even have date in in it (6 months out from issuance) which is the last date you can enter. "Must be used by" means last day to enter and get a 60 day stamp. So at 6 months after issuance, you can get 60 + 30 days. We are literally 100s of people in this very group that have done just that. Why do you try to argue something you dont understand?

THE EXPIRATION DATE OF THE metv IS THE LAST DATE YOU CAN ENTER THAILAND. Not the amount of time you can stay. How difficult is this to comprehend?

You have unlimited ENTRIES into Thailand within 6 months of issue date, that is it. Its not very complicated. Its the passport stamp that decide when you have to leave and how long you can stay.

It amazes me that you have such difficulty reading and try argue something you clearly dont understand. I've spent 8 month in Thailand on a single METV. Many have done the same.

LOL, why do I even bother. I bet if I told you 1+1=2 you would argue that as well haha. We have actual experience, and you still try to argue it.

Even your own screenshot you posted confirms what we are trying to tell you.

* METV comes with a expiry date

* This expiry date is 180 days after VISA Issuance. When you enter Thailand does not change this date.

* You can plan your last entry on the actual expiry date to get a 60 day stamp 180 days after visa was issued. That stamp can be extended with 30 days.

So yes, again and again, if you enter close to the expiry date of the visa, you can stay in Thailand 9 months after visa was issued. So if you enter Thailand close to issuance data, you can effectively spend almost 9 months in Thailand by exiting and returning to Thailand two times. Simple as that
