it’s a nightmare it’s almost like they don’t want young families staying here or forcing the hand towards elite as we know who made that whole program just a coincidence now they are back the rules changes again 🤣

@Graham *****

work in Qatar and have a residency which I can apply from there. 🤞 had my last 7 yearly non O visas from Doha embassy

@Jan *****************

sure will do I know the officer quite well so he may be able help but even he was confused by my situation today let’s see I’ll update once know to help the others as seems to be many of us in same boat. Seems like just make it hard for young families to live here now

@Tod ********

sure is a lot of work but if needs to be done will work it in my next issue is back right before songkran so will be closed I think will be June before I can realistically do all this when I have a full month in Thailand. Out of curiosity how many times per year can I enter on VOA? is a very vague question I know as really hard to find answers or is it down to the officer on the day ?

@Jan *****************

ok thank you my problem is I come in around 8 times per year. My visa just expired in February and was planning usual renewal in Doha but then noticed this bombshell. Not nice but will work and will be a way I don’t think they would ever turn you away at airport if never had a problem In the country and have a wife and 2 kids but never know thank you for your support

@Jan *****************

thank you I think I’ll take this option get a 90 day non O and go immigration here and apply for 1 year then ask for multi entry

@Tod ********

thanks for your support mate. I think best option is 2 x 6 tourist visas which I have asked embassy alreday they said will be fine. Or get 90 day non O and try some how get it into 1 year from immigration here. My problem is like many others I work and also a couple holidays so in around 8 times per year so questions will definitely be asked but if get 2 x 6 month tourist am almost sure immigration at airport won’t even care but I could be wrong.
