Started to ask questions weeks ago about his situation. I can only provide him up-to-date info based on when he ask his questions. Given his situation, he had a good chance to get rejected entry 2 weeks ago. But he entered this week... after the law changed, so he was no longer at high risk of getting denied. The new law allow people on Non-O to get Covid extension again, and that new level of tolerance toward people on long term visa also allow them to enter more freely in Suvarnabhumi Airport. This could change again next week... this is Thailand, authority flip-flop often. This is why when people ask when Thailand will re-open with no restrictions we can only estimate.

Yes, you are correct. A lot got rejected, but the law changed again last week, so it's even easy to get in from BKK now. Agent are back giving all sort of long term visa again.

@Juls *****

Which story? The fact is that the new law was adopted last week, and since then people can get their Covid Extension from Non-O or come back into Thailand from having a Non-O fairly easily. I don't know which story you are referring to?

@Juls *****

Last week the ban on Covid Extension for people on Non-O was reversed, it also greatly reduce the risk of getting denied entry in BKK. So yeah, in a way, people who came back since last week were lucky.

@Nadine *****

The application of the law changed again last week when Non-O Covid Extension became available again. So coming back into Thailand is getting easier again, although there is still risk.

Changing passport does not clean anything, but it prevent you from getting denied entry. It's the case since forever. Even pre-Covid when you go to Savannakhet you will get denied if it's your third tourist visa in a row... except if it's a new passport you will get it anyways. They are simply not enforcing whatever regulation with new passport.

You coming back have nothing to do with luck. As I frequently mention, application of laws change weekly in Thailand, if not daily. Last week the crackdown on people on Non-O was reversed, so they can get Covid extension again and by default come back into Thailand fairly easily.

The goal of this group is NOT to be less anxious in front of visa trouble. The goal of this group is to give people advice while reminding objective and facts based, which most people struggle to do with their anecdotal evidence.

@Brahim *****

lol, you call him fragile and then act like a fragile boy when he strike back. Si t pas capable de prendre les insultes, soit pas le premier a attaquer.

@Bobby *******

Yes, and these reports are mostly in Bangkok. It seems like Phuket give a lot less trouble upon entry, and Chiang Mai is a piece of cake as usual.
