Visa options for 4-5 month snowbird stay for winter 2025-2026
As usual, I'm thinking of coming to Thailand for the period of November 2025 to March 2026. Previously, I have either used the METV, or consecutive/extended SETV and/or 60-day Visa Exemption. Last year, I entered on a 60-day VE stamp and then did a land border bounce to Cambodia with a visa run company out of Pattaya. I then extended that second VE at my local immigration office. It worked out well for staying from November to March. But the current closing of the Cambodian border changes the calculation somewhat. Any land border bounce is going to take longer and cost more in order to go to Laos or Malaysia. The land border bounce to Laos via a grueling 9-hour minivan trip isn't very attractive in this scenario. But based on what I'm reading here traveling by air to a nearby country such as Vietnam and staying a few days and then re-entering Thailand for a second consecutive 60-day VE stamp is not advised and may require hiring a safe entry company. I have only ever come to Thailand during the winter and have never stayed longer than 6 months per year. I have done this for the past 10 years or so. And yet it seems that tourists wanting to stay any longer than 90 days (60 VE + 30 days extension) may have problems since border bounces from BKK/Pattaya to land borders must now go to Laos. In terms of maximizing comfort and speed, one alternative solution would be to travel by air to Udon Thani or Nakhon Phanom or some other town near the Lao border and then take a border bounce minivan across the Lao border in order to obtain a second 60-day VE stamp. But I would still have to stay in Laos for a couple of nights regardless if I understand the new rules correctly. How risky would it be if I crossed the Laos border myself and re-enter with another 60-day VE stamp? Of course, this assumes that the 60-day visa exemption will still exist early next year. No guarantee of that. -

Immigration Thailand Digital Arrival Card. TDAC
I would have though all the Immi officer needs do to is to 'correct the date' in his system... All the TDAC card is, is a digital version of the TM6 - so surely they can make simple edits at the counter ?... No ? -

Retirement Extension? Nah, I’m DTV Now.
I'm presently in UK for longer than planned due to an unforeseen change in circumstances. This will mean my retirement extension will expire before I can get back. Another reason to consider a DTV in future! -

Epstein Coverup Continues
You went to quite a lot of effort to present my comments OUT OF CONTEXT. My comment was specific to the claims of Virginia Giuffre who was able to exploit events to her own financial benefit. Her life years later and her statements prior to her suicide indicate that she was dishonest and not truthful. She may have certainly believe that the events occurred, but her fantasies and delusions does not mean the events occurred as described.
