Earlier in the year when the proposed changes to VOA, Visa exempt, and DTV were announced, it was also mentioned that the Non-immigration visas were going to change by reducing the number of categories/types with possible changes in the requirements. The window mentioned was Sept/Oct.(Dec?) I've not heard anything since. I know there's a different Administration in place now, but has there been any talk of the changes?
I can't find the original article but this has the bulleted "mid-term measures" I read before.
There has been numerous media reports come out today stating big changes in visa entries to Thailand, including that visa exempt entries will get 60 days, and a reduction of the mandatory insurance requirement for OA and OX visas, as of June 1st
Not any official statements that I’ve seen so far but you can check out some details here - [members only]/
Now at this moment in time it’s press articles, so not guaranteed to change, but they state the cabinet have approved the measures. In 4 days we will find out.
Okay, this is the NEW thread devoted to the proposed <- as in NOT ENACTED changes to the visa exempt entry program, the tourist visa system, and the visa-on arrival program.>
Keep in mind right NOW the only thing that happens is that from Nov 15th until Jan 15th the 2000baht fee for 15 day visa on arrivals for people from 21 countries are free.
EVERYTHING else they're talking about has NOT taken effect and NO date for it to take effect is set.
