Popular Post cjinchiangrai Posted April 25 Popular Post Share Posted April 25 The Thai Embassies have published exemption rules limiting visitors to two per year. It used to be two by land borders and unspecified by air. Have they changed the rules? People are being refused by airlines. 1 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Could you post a link to an embassy site or two that make this statement please? With no credible source it's just unsubstantiated rumour. 2 3 2 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
