Alan Hooper they made a corporate decision to switch and push the Indian market. Aussies / Brits thrown out with the bath water 🤣

Nigel Bunney So why would they sell a 6 month Multi Entry Tourist Visa then?

Sorry to state the obvious?

Maybe they should change it to five months?

Jan Kenneth Nesland I always thought the non O was really only applied for prior to applying for a 1 year extension?

Could someone doing the 2 month home, 2 month Thailand apply for 3 each of these each year to cover their 6 month stay?.

@Graham *****
that is exactly the strategy I’m planning. I’m going next Monday and will do that on a Visa exempt, & and then I’ll apply for the METV when I get back after 60 days

My usual travel pattern used to be 60 days Thailand, 60 days home country, 3 trips a year.

Obviously, with only six months validity, the third trip couldn’t be done?

Has anyone applied for a second METV after the 6 months was up?….. or would they let you enter on Visa free for a third trip of 60 days?

My condo in Samrong completes the TM30 every time I arrive. They said it’s free for the first 3 times and they might charge a small fee above that each year…but they never do
