Why are there complaints about the visa extension process in Thailand?

Christopher ********

I kept telling people they don’t want you to do extensions and everyone screamed “I have the right !!! It said so!!”” No, you don’t. It’s a tourist visa and you’re meant to come and go. And now, they are going to make you do that.

Will my friend's arrival in Thailand before receiving his DTV affect the visa issuance?

Christopher ********

@Elías *******

they don’t require it. They require the flight you will book. If different I usually book a refundable flight until it’s verified then cancel and buy the cheaper flight.

@Aaron ********

most embassies especially European ones want you to apply from your passport country. It’s not my favorite thing but then if you don’t some will after a certain time like 6 months or a year
