What are the implications of the new visa exempt entry restrictions in Thailand?
John ********
@Martin *******
 Okay, just asking, I still doubt there are many travelers who come to Thailand 8 to 10 times a year for 5 days.

I always thought the “backpacker” crowd would go where it’s cheapest and very few people , mostly untouched areas.

Have I missed the concept of “backpacking” absolutely and glad I did!

Why would you go to Thailand 6 times in 6 months, to do what?

This should work out great for you!

You didn’t work at your job (DOGE proved that) and now you can’t in Thailand.

How many years have you been collecting benefits and didn’t do a thing?
