Phuket weren’t enforcing that on Friday, but they will from Monday going forward.

According to the new rules due to kick in tomorrow (edited: Monday) then if you try to extend you’ll be given only 7 days, not 30.

If it gets approved (the embassy generally want to see travel within 3 months) then it’s not an issue when you actually use it.

There’s a new set of rules coming in to effect on Monday. We don’t know full details as yet but it appears that only 2 visa exempt entries will be allowed per year and extensions will be restricted.

As of Monday we may know more specific details.

@Zack ********
as far as we know this doesn’t affect anyone with an actual visa. Too sketchy details to confirm one way or the other.

We don’t know that at this stage. Prior restrictions were per calendar year but nothing is known to confirm that.

As far as we know so far it will still be 60 days for a visa exempt. However limited to 2 per year. If you enter via land an extension isn’t allowed but if you enter by air the first time would be 30 days but the second (after exiting and entering on a new stamp) would only be 7.

Details are sketchy at the moment and aren’t verified. We will have to wait to see how it plays out after Monday.

Once the funds hit your account you are free to spend at will. There is no requirement to keep any balance in the account.

Glad to hear. You are the exception to the norm of what’s happening these days if that’s the case

Only fill in the fields that have a red asterisk. Departure dates are not mandatory so leave them blank. Indeed don’t even click in the boxes otherwise they’ll become mandatory.
