I have it on good authority that this will begin on July 15. Let's see if they finally got their act together.

How about we wait for the official announcement and then we'll all know for sure 😛

Well I did read the same on here a week or so back, hopefully your "good authority" is gooder than that.

If I recall, the entire English speaking news media for Thailand "had it on good authority"  that the program would start June 1st.

 

We saw how well that worked out

We had it on good authority (from the UK .gov) that it changed to 60 days previously, and then it changed back again. 

 

So  now have a tourist for August, will check again for Xmas to see if it happens.

 

Now waiting on their Visa re-organisation and streamlining mentioned for September-ish.

Does "good authority" know when "begin on July 15" will be "officially announced"? 

[DrJack54]

Really. Similar threads keep popping up.

Just wait till/if it happens.

like how they call it a "scheme" as it usually ends up that way one way or the other....

 

Correct, as the '60 days' scheme is announced as "temporary", and 'visas tailored for digital nomads' (e.g. Destination Thailand Visa) having application conditions that are as clear as mud...

The DTV will be delayed still as immigration are still hammering out the details.

Seriously.

Immigration don't hammer out anything.

You are posting nonsense based on various web sites such as news releases and eg Siam Legal. 

From your OP

"I have it on good authority that this will begin on July 15."

Now "hammering out details"
