For me, the 10 years visa started on the day notification letter was approved .
I received my letter Oct 4th.
i have 2 months to get the visa stamped , Dec 3rd, if not , I start the process again .
And my 10 years visa expired Oct 3rd, 2032 per the letter .
. Of course this might change when I really get my passport stamped next week in Bangkok boi.
A note to my self is to get the 5th year renewal requirements since we have been approved for 10 years and paid 50k upfront .
Hate surprises …
