Roberto Stephen Success? How you know that? I never saw less tourists in 8 years (apart from COVID times of course), after COVID the economy fell down and less tourists came to Thailand. Maybe in the digital nomad areas like Chiang Mai more tourists with laptops? Not sure, but not where I am.
Thailand is the one who put the rules, and they can change any time. In my personal opinion after staying here for a few years, I saw many things changing for one day to the other, welcome to Thailand π.
A country that was able to change the cannabis law in less than one year, after many people invested a lot of money in related businesses, can change anything they want. This is not a criticism; Iβm simply describing reality based on actual events. Enjoy this beautiful country, enjoy your visas and don't think too much in the future, that's my friendly advice to the new DTV tourists.
After living in Thailand for a while, Iβve noticed many things change quickly (like the marijuana law). However, I believe they wonβt break the five-year commitment to those who already have the visa. Thailand will continue issuing this visa as long as it benefits the country and will likely end it once tourism fully recovers. We've already seen other countries take similar steps by removing digital nomad visas around the world.
About the address , an hotel address is enough in Cambodia? I saw that in Malaysia they ask for a permanent residency or a visa not less than 1 year, quite confusing. π
