It’s hard to say. Approximately 3000 people have been denied entry.
I think you will be questioned by the immigration officer when you arrive. Be prepared and have all your information readily available. Be polite and smile. Dress sharp. The monarch recently passed away. Black and white attire are recommended. Do not , I repeat do not wear bright colors.
You might want to read up on the new rules.
I came through the immigration check point ( BKK ) last month and was advised that another type of visa would be required on my next trip. I was planning on the DTV but recently learned about the METV.
Best of luck to you. It’s a “rule” I’m told , not a law that the 60 plus 30 day is allowed once but only if it’s an arrival by air. Leave the county and return ( do not do it in one day ) then when you return to Thailand , you receive 60 days and a 7 day extension. These 2 options are only allowed once per calendar year.
That’s the plan. Six and six. I make crazy money working in America. Plus I have my retirement. I make more money in one month than the average Thai makes in a year. No offense to the Thais but it’s straight up economics. No way I want to work for $12 a day in Thailand . Not even sure why my life is any of your business. Beginning to think you’re just trolling because nobody’s that stupid. Please feel free to argue with strangers in the internet. You’re boring me.
Thank you for your point of view. The United States is removing undocumented aliens. Many of the deported “ immigrants “ are career criminals with convictions that range from murder , kidnapping , robbery , child molestations , rape , drug trafficking and the lists goes on.
Your attempt to discredit and demonize the authorities is pathetic.
Guess the victim mentality is something you learned when you were taking care of them as a nurse ? Maybe you’re delusional ? I don’t know and fortunately , the law Trumps your personal beliefs.
Steve G. I do that and I am a tourist. I work six months and travel six months. I choose to have my holiday in Thailand. Where I’m from , it snows in the winter. Now , I’m going to get a visa as the immigration officer suggested when I arrived last month.
Your comment is judgmental and offensive. With that being said , I agree with your point , there are too many people exploiting the system. The Thai government is looking to deter and prevent the criminal elements.
Personally , I follow the law to the letter , as does my family. We’re LEO’s.
