swbaggies Posted November 18, 2015 Share Posted November 18, 2015 Hi I currently have a triple entry tourist visa which im 1 entry down in. I am a UK passport holder and have a few questions if you could help me. Under the new multi entry visa, im assuming i am right in thinking i have to return to the uk to obtain. My question is this, it states on the list of requirements that you have to have a set amount of money in bank and a job. I have been in Thailand for coming up to 2 years and therefore have no UK job. Does anyone k ow how strict they are on these rules and/or if they are being enforeced? Does anybody have any help or suggestions with this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jspill Posted November 18, 2015 Share Posted November 18, 2015 A poster just reported in the other thread that you can get it in Laos and only need the money requirement (200k), we're waiting for 100% confirmation though. http://www.thaivisa.com/forum/topic/870548-the-multiple-entry-tourist-visa-topic-metv/page-11#entry10091384 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If 100% confirmed, it would be great if you could post everything he was asked to present to the METV thread. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As said the income tax return, an hotel booking for at least 2 nights, return flight at 6 months and of course the 6000 euros. They accept also the equivalent in baht on a Thai bank account.

nomo fiat Posted November 18, 2015 Share Posted November 18, 2015 this new visa thing is very confusing to me. i am self employed and used to spend winters in thailand. i was considering spending 3 months here starting from december 1. i usually fly in take a one month tourist visa and fly out for a little holiday at the end of each month and get a new vidsa when i return. Is this still possible? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is this still possible? If you don't want to deal with the qualifications for the METV, you could use Visa-Exempts, as you describe using previously, or get a Single-Entry Tourist Visa (SETV) for 1000 Baht at your local Thai Consulate. This does not require the crazy-list as listed for the new METV. Do keep in mind, that you can add 30-days to either a VisaExempt entry, or a 60-day SETV. You can visit Immigration in-country and pay 1900 Baht for that extension. So you could stay here the a 90 days without leaving on a SETV, or stay for 60 on your first VisaExempt, then do one more out/in for the remainder. If you have been out of Thailand for 9 months, you should not have a problem with 2 VisaExempts by air - though a few land-borders could be troublesome. Your desired schedule to visit other nations nearby would determine the best choice. Edited November 18, 2015 by JackThompson Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
