Why don´t they give us back the Non-O visiting Thai family (90 days), like we had before. Back then you only needed the funds in your home country (1700€), but it was gone when they introduced the visa excemption, and now you must have 400.000 or 800.000THB to proof even if you only want to stay for 3 months. I am sure there are many people that used it back then. Now they punisch all the people because of some that misuse the system.
Not true, you can do 2 visa excemtions, only the first time you can extend for 30 days and the second time for 7 days. That means 60+30 and 60+7, so 157 days in a year. But lets wait till monday when its official.
