As Robert said you can qualify for Non O visa (married to Thai) to apply for a COE and enter Thailand. However is your employer a Thai company (you said teach online outside of Thailand). If the employer is not in Thailand you will not be able to get a work permit. Thailand does not recognize digital nomads who live in Thailand but work online for companies outside of Thailand.

Did they give you a travel agent name/link to use to book the ticket? I am not sure what country you are in but beyond that I have no ideas to help you. Commercial flights are still banned to Thailand. The people I know of who have arrived here either booked their flight through a teavel agent specified by the embassy or booked a flight on an airline specified by the embassy for a future daye, sent the flight info to the embassy and the embassy then worked with the airline ti change the flight date. Maybe someone else knows of a different way. Best of luck.

The only reports if people sucessfully returning tk Thailand are those on flights organized through the embassy (some people have reported taking a flight from a dufferent country and working with multiple embassies (maybe you coukd talk to your local embassy about thus as an option). If you are in a country where your embassy will not help you then I am not sure there are any options at this time. All commercial flights are banned from Thailand and there is no official date for this ban to end. And yes ubfortunately different embassies follow their own procedures. Best of luck.

Reason they cancel is no commercial flights with passengers are allowed to land and have passengers get off in Thailand currently, there is no date when this will change. Only repat flights or cargo flights where passage is aranged through the embassy can bring passengers to Thailand. The airlines just accept bookings and hope they will be able to fly because it helps their cash flow.

Or 400k in a bank account in your name only for 2 months (money can come from inside Thailand or outside).

Remembet while the comes fron a high level source it is not official until approved by the cabinet and published in the Royal Gazette. While sounds promissing it is not official and could change.

@David ********

need proof of salary for you alone. Requires pay and tax records.

@Todd ********

yes commercial flights have been banned and will continue to be banned for now. If you get a COE the only way to get to Thailand os through flights organized through the embassy. That is not necessarily easy (limited flights and some embassies propritize all Thais) but nothing had changed due to the event in Rayong.

@Todd ********

I am in Thailand now. Yes this incident caused some panic (big overreaction in my mind) and the Thai news is publishing some wild stories. But if you follow the government announcememts nothing has really changed. Repat flights are arriving as normal - several reports from people arriving today. Commercial flights have been banned for a while so no change. Only change is they banned Egyptian military flights and auspended VIP flights (think private jets) until the rules are changed for those.

@Todd ********

NOT TRUE. There are still flights arrived today and more tomorrow. They are redoing rules for VIPs entry but the normal repatriation flights are still arriving.
