So you're saying saying that spouses must also meet the criteria for a DTV? What's the point of a spouse "add on" in that case? And where does it say that in the infographic? 😂

@Brandon ***********

Not according to the MFA! But as always, I guess Facebook overrules anything official! 😆

And Thailand is choc-a-bloc full of expats paying wayyyyyyy over the top for visa agent extensions. The mind boggles what they will pay in dirty money but will whine like a cat in agony if they're charged 20 baht more for a taxi fare. Thailand certainly attracts some strange people

@Todd ********

It's on the embassy websites

@Todd ********

I think you'll find embassies and consulates across the world charge the higher prices. The UK prices are also high. But realistically, Aussies (especially retirees) are well cashed-up and the 14,000 baht is really cheap. I know some guys are paying visa agents 20,000+ just for a one-year extension and it doesn't seem to bother them, so I can't see the extra 4,000 baht being a problem. I spend that amount on a good night out! I see the Elites are melting down over the new "Super Visa"!

@Greg *******

Both Australia and UK are also charging a higher price. Probably find other countries are too. It's no big deal. If you don't want to pay for it, look a different visa

@Todd ********

It'll save a lot over the non-O visa. In fact it'll pay for itself for frequent travellers. It's a little beauty. Get onto some of the other forums. It's the hottest visa topic for years! Even if the Elite Visa group is in massive meltdown!

@Todd ********

Ok. It's pretty clear to me and I'm sure to immigration as they wrote it! But I'm sure they will take your thoughts into consideration!

@Todd ********

Yes, you get out, re-enter and get another 180 days. As the MFA/Immigration advice clearly states "180 days per entry". You cannot renew a visa

@Todd ********

That's only if you remain in the country. You can leave at any time in the 180 days stamp, and then re-enter for another 180 days. The Ministry has already published this and stated "per entry"
