Correct! 🤣😉

My sister said her boyfriend said his brother had read (on Facebook) that his uncle had seen that his wife's workmate said that a Thai friend had heard vai someone at immigration that told a bar girl that told her "boyfriend" that it would start at some point.

Other than rhat, no.

I think you have a lot of research to do rather than asking for otger Favebook users to supply you with solutions and "contacts".

If you want to so it the "not-so-legal' way, fins the nearest Visa Agent and go inside...

Otherwise, my advice would be to return to your home country and obtain a METV (if available to you) and come back to Thailand with that, at least. That, worked to it's maximum, will give you nine months of stay in Thailand. Id then leave for a week or so (Nice holiday to Malaysia or the like) and then come back with a Tourist Visa which will give you 30 days (currently but by then potentially 6o days) rhen extend that at the local immigration office (at a cost of 1900THB currently) for a further 30 days.

That's the best part of a year covered.

I'd love to see a tourist "challenge" an immigration officer 🤣

Especially on a thing that hasn't even come into force yet.

I'm not sure if AA allow cancellation but they're "throwaway prices" if you're looking for a way to stay in Thailand long term.

A "wasted" ticket at 800THB is a fraction of the cost of living.

100% the best way. I used to do it each time.

Just book an Air Asia flight to anywhere to fly on about day 57 of the 60.

Probably cost no more than 800THB

I'm not complaining 😆

I'd rather pay a small bribe and be sure of getting in than not pay an maybe be refused.

Been saying this repeatedly for months and you're the first person I've ever seen "agreeing".

It makes me laugh that people are so blasé that because they have a Visa they will be fine and have no problems re-entering Thailand. Especially if arrival point is DMK 😆
