She could apply for a DTV visa that will cover her for 5 years until she can apply for the retirement visa

Just another option to have

There is no official limit on how many times you can stamp in/out of Thailand via air land or sea plus extensions of the visa exempt stamp

With that being said

You will eventually run into an I/O who will say No or give you a stern warning about your visa exemption log with no real visa

Haters will argue with me or the masses in here will say use an agent to get through the red tape at immigration checkpoints via border bounces and the Sotomor

But there is no official limit at all

@Fabio ***

if you’re only being tourist go for the METV

If you have the necessary ฿500k Baht required and the time to take a soft DTV course (cooking, Muay Thai etc) then go for the DTV…pro you get 5 years out of it

It’s up to you and what you want out of your time and visa

after the first sentence

You turned into a hypocrite

I stopped reading your fear mongering diatribe after the first sentence

@Adrian ********

in April the banks did a purge of phone numbers

Basically your phone number has to be the same that’s on the acct…if not accts were suspended and the banks recommended that all money be taken out..:or a new phone number with correct visa be shown

After that the scam center debacle happened…and now 3-4 weeks later we are at now

@Stephen *******

no what I said was this

If you Ask anyone in here they’re answer will be:

The only way to do it is with an agency that does border runs

Now I understand that English reading comprehension is not your strong suit or you would have understood my comment

Get a visa for peace of mind if your paranoid

@David *******

the entire DTV visa is a grey area visa

People originally got it by doing 1 consultation with a Dr

So please tell me more about working the system
