i have Thai Elite also but i don’t think it gives you any immediate access or entry into thailand the best would be to ask TE member services can they help as they are very helpful and do respond promptly good luck
for such short period of stay as someone mentioned for a border run go to singapore or kuala lumpur or another asian country which may have borders open and then return next day or two. easiest way then jumping through hoops with immigration.... then you dont need bank accounts or anything like this. just ensure your health insurance fully paid up and covers you during your stay here and please dont rent a motorbike and ride here roads are treacherous it doesnt matter how good a rider you are its the idiots on the road that never look when turning or overtaking or whatever..
my wife and i both changed from retirement to TE because got sick and tired of all their chopping and changing at immigration makes like easy for us now and don’t have to see these people in immigration or if necessary TE will do for us
yes but they say when u can go prior to go the good thing is there are no people there because no tourists i went to immigration in phuket the other day but we have a drive thru i was 20 days over no questions no asking for fines done in 2 mins good luck
