so from that statement, you are making an assumptions about intent - derived from the published rules.

Watch the interview (RWFU youtube channel) - head of immigration specifically discussed people using it to stay year round - with extension and border runs.

Its why i picked the DTV as i was looking at other options - im here on medical - and knew i’d need to be here for ongoing support.

In terms of thailand making sense - as much as im sure both you and I are love it here, it doesnt always make sense….

you should watch the interview with the head immigration official who said - it was designed exactly for people who wished to stay here all year.

Follow the documentation you have.

You have to do 90 day reporting though.

Done Singapore and back with DTV.

Just do the Singapore and Thai - online entry process.

DTV barely even looked at. No stamps not mentioned.

No stamps required.

Isnt it a regular thing here…

However, they have tended to make it part of the tourist attractions rather than target us.
