false. You have been able to leave thailand. You are not locked into this country PERIOD! Just because other countries say you can't come in if you are a foreigner is not thailands responsibility or fault.

Do I think that the government is think about those that are long term visa holders that are required to do border runs in order to renew thier visas. Yes. But people need to prepare for that to turn into a no for what ever reason.

@Bim ******

yes everyone knew that amnesty ends on July 30th. You understand that is what they stated when it was started. That is a published end date.

Proving what kind of point? I am trying to get people to wake up to reality. I myself was thinking that oh they will extend or give a path or whatever until the last few days. And it finally sunk in that oh..... It is going to end and they told us it was going to end months ago.

If your home country is not letting you come back to your home country then you need to talk to your embassy. Why is it thailands responsibility to take care of a non citizen who can't go home. That particular citizens embassy should be taking care of it.

You have always been allowed to leave thailand. By land maybe. By air absolutely.

I don't know of any single country that has denied thier citizens entry to their country. That's just ignorance.

@Bim ******

I disagree with you. Everyone knew the amnesty was ending on the 30th. But we all did ourselves a disservice not realizing that the end date is the 30th. It's been that date for months. Just because many people thought or hoped they would do more doesn't change the fact that the end date has been published since amnesty was issued.

Sorry to hear that Thai elite is stopping applications. I think that there is a connection between that and the leaked information that happened this last week.

@Bim ******

I belive your wrong. It's not a PR nightmare. Ending of the amnesty on July 30th has been known for months. It's not like they have never told anybody when it will end.

The only airport that had been in total lockdown was Phuket. But has since resumed operating. Yes there may not be easy flight options available. But there are options and they do cost money. If you don't have the money then you need to contact your embassy to get a loan to get the ticket paid for. It is life. It may not be fair. But what does complaining about it accomplish?

When did Thai Elite stop accepting applications? I just got my approval letter the beginning of this week. It took 20 days.

@Kim *********

then have him give where he is getting the information.

@Tod ********

where is the written proof from immigration of your claim that you can't apply once in amnesty?

@Tod ********
