I stayed two hours talking with immigration explaining why I’m there, my found etc etc Finally they allowed my entry but they told me that will denied my next tourist visa. Pushing me for buy elite visa. My opinion is that the new government wants to get as much money as possible from expats and foreigners, that’s why new taxes are coming.
I’ve applied for a tourist visa 3 weeks ago in Hanoi and after 3 days I got the visa sticker. However when I landed in Bangkok, at the immigration point they stopped me and wanted denied my entry due 4 tourist visa stamps in 2 years. Everything legal but even if any embassy approves the visa, it is not sure that immigration at the airport will accept your entry. I don’t know how will works with DTV but the entry criterion depends on who you find at immigration when you arrive in Thailand. That’s what I see
