ConfusedFarang Posted May 23, 2009 Share Posted May 23, 2009 I haven't been on here in a while/keeping up with Thailand news. Has anything positive changed as far as visas/immigration (for americans)? I want to stay for a year or two, any good news? I know the protests must have hit them hard, so figured maybe some things have changed? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
britmaveric Posted May 23, 2009 Share Posted May 23, 2009 Sorry mate - visa rules are the same actually tightened if you consider they only give you 15days on land border crossing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jingthing Posted May 23, 2009 Share Posted May 23, 2009 Yes, there is good news. You can easily get double entry tourist visas in Vientienne Laos. Also, you can fly in as many times as you want and get 30 days stamp each time with NO LIMIT on how many times you can do that (before, they were restricting that). Good times!

retiredusn Posted May 24, 2009 Share Posted May 24, 2009 If you gave your age and what type of visa you were looking for it may be a bit easier to answer your question. If 50 or over with a penion a year year at a time is no problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ubonjoe Posted May 24, 2009 Share Posted May 24, 2009 If you are under 50 and don't want to work or set up a company there are not a lot of choices. An investment of 10 million baht is back in the police order That is the only real change the has occured. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jingthing Posted May 24, 2009 Share Posted May 24, 2009 Oh, and there is the ED education visa if you want to study here. Most use it to study Thai. This is becoming quite popular and the number of class hours required per week is very liberal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
