Hello, my Canadian friend was arrested and blacklisted for marijuana before it was legal here. This is more than five years ago.
He was told that it was 5 year blacklist but when he tried to come back after 5 years he was denied entry and told that it was 99 year blacklist.
He would love to come back here to visit his wife and son. Is there any road to potentially getting this blacklist removed? What can he do? Thank you!
TLDR : Answer Summary
A Canadian man was blacklisted for marijuana possession in Thailand and is now seeking ways to have the 99-year entry ban revoked. Despite the decriminalization of cannabis in Thailand, the blacklist remains. Recommendations from the community include contacting a Thai immigration lawyer, gathering evidence of rehabilitation, and potentially utilizing connections to navigate the legal system. Some users suggest alternatives such as meeting family in neighboring countries to circumvent the blacklist.
