Are there any recent issues entering Thailand with a DTV visa after using exempt visas?

@Greg *******

METV better than retirement visa for trips under 6months. Only diffrence costs add up. Need to do safe entry to be sure of entry. 4500b extention 1900b, visa run 6400b and visa itself about 5000b. Adds up to pretty penny almost

*****

b for 5-6month stay in extra cost alone. Not the cheapest country anymore.
