Since there seems to be a high demand for people wanting to return, then why do they not make the entire thing as hassle free as possible?

because they are mindless  <deleted> whose only role is to create as much paperwork as  possible

    I would suggest that leaving at the start of, or during a global pandemic is entirely their own fault.

    I am sorry but i don't feel a lot of sympathy for this Mr ''R''   he sounds a little bit too selfish from my point of view and i personaly find his decision to abandon her poor old mom

Boy I can really feel the love from this thread...

 

It seems the many members on Thai Visa who formerly took great delight on belittling visa border runners and the like have found a new whipping boy.......The frustrated expat at their wits end trying to get back to Thailand....

 

Its the same old dragging some one with problems through the mud..

Its all so Boring...

I suspect part of the reason is already well known, so many are sex tourists and that's the only thing on their tiny minds. They never think about other situations, like other farang who are separated from legitimate wife and kids etc., (family).

BUT you stayed! 555. Just to hate and criticize...What a looser.! Please tell us all about your life!

I'm not a loser and my life is private, none of your business.

I chose to live here with my Thai wife, assimilate and be a good citizen, however after many years I'm still treated as a tourist and thus feel like an outsider.

They are many waiting and wanting to return to thailand,until that day  happens without 14 days government hotel costs.I,am one of them that have to wait,I have a friend who owns a bar in cnx he is in the same boat

Because they don't want foreigners coming into Thailand at the moment.
