It might be held to establish that she can travel abroad and then return home by visiting with her to other easier places like Japan, México, EU, etc.

She’s lucky to have a good solid sponsor.

But that’s certainly not what several of my foreign friends were quizzed about by the USA embassy when I tried to bring them over to visit.

What’s to keep the visitor from "jumping ship" and vanishing into USA?

It’s a challenge.

Basically USA wants to know that the visitor will go home afterwards.

She will need to have money in the bank, a car, a job, a home, a spouse, dependents and any thing else to make her want to return home quickly.

Unfortunately, most young Thai men and ladies don’t have this……

I opened an account with Bangkok Bank a few months ago. They asked for the same thing. I was happy to be able to open the account and just bought the insurance policy.

For those of us who are a little bit ignorant, can you explain the re-entry?

This is to allow return to Thailand without actually getting on an airplane?

One (1) day not 24 hours.

Look at cdc and State Department websites.

This is to your advantage.

Also do the antigen test . It’s cheaper 600 baht and you get paperwork in 30 minutes.
