Popular Post george Posted June 1 Popular Post Share Posted June 1 The announcement of 60 days visa exempt isn't been enforced at Suvarnabhumi Airport just yet. Here is a Suvarnabhumi Airport entry stamp from today. 30 days, not 60 days! The announcement from Ministry of Foreign affairs (MFA) says June 1, 2024.

Popular Post Gsxrnz Posted June 1 Popular Post Share Posted June 1 Thai logic - the new rules as quoted in the announcement states "Valid from-2024-06-01" which in Thai logic probably means from midnight on 1 June. 555. 4 3 1 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post george Posted June 1 Author Popular Post Share Posted June 1 UPDATE: Our Thai staff just spoke to the press center at the Government Center. They informed ASEAN NOW that "changes can take some time to enforce" and asked us to be patient. "Coming soon".

As always In Thailand you have to have a certain amount in your bank or be earning a certain amount I think. But the bottom line is cash is involved. Always makes me laugh on here that people comment that 5,6, 7, etc. thousand pound (sterling) isn't a lot of money to have in your bank. well it is to me. 1 1 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Middle Aged Grouch Posted June 1 Share Posted June 1 Typical Thainess of immigration. Rules that change and are made on a regular basis from one office or division to another, all depending on the mood of "God" in uniform behind the glass counter. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Back in February, I entered on a SETV and the IO stamped me in for 30 days not 60. I ALWAYS check before leaving the desk, and politely told him he'd made a mistake. He apologised, corrected it and stamped my passport again, telling me it was "OK on the system" I had no problems leaving 58 days later. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
