I already went to Thailand during 6 months for 10 years in the European winter. Never had any problem and never overstay. The snowbird tourist visa for 6 months is now suspended and changed to the STV visa. I bring all the requested documents together and waited quiet one month to obtain the appointment at the Embassy Despite off having all the required documents, paid all the asq hotels and condos. The STV VISA WAS REFUSED BY THE Thai Royal Embassy . I transfered already 3000 Euro to pay the condo for the winter? I have 238000 Euro on my savings-account and NO criminal record, a health insurance (covid included) of more than 3 million Euro and still the STV visa was refused. If I look at the Thai embassy policy I believe there is a double message from the Thai government. 1° Intern for the Thais: We want to open the country and do all to restart tourism. 2° extern for the Europeans: we only like short term tourism and multimillionaire tourism. It is really a pitty but as a snowbird i will have to pass my winter in another country. Sorry
