Not sure how the lack of exit stamp (in airports) has anything to do with not doing your report or leaving by a land border.

If you are here 90 days your supposed to do one.

If you are not interacting with in country immigration for any reason you may get away without being caught. That doesnt mean one isnt required.

Its never impossible.. Its always up to them.. Theres no law and its always discretionary policy.

It is likely to get harder..

@Paul ******

Agreed.. I generally agree with him and find his rants funny and entertaining..

But when it comes to facts you need to remain as impartial as you can, and factually hes just been wrong on wrong on wrong with the DTV. I also think hes been wrong more than right on the tax law thats inbound, Revenue big wigs on the record now stating the opposite of what he has been saying for a year (I admit enforcement is still unknown, but as a lawyer your advice should be the law not what is poorly policed).

@Paul ******

I pointed out in another deleted comment 😉 so far he has claimed

Its only 1 entry in 5 years validity

Extensions will be 10k THB

Only one extension possible over the 5 years validity

People will have issues border running / multi entry

No extensions incountry

and now hes assuming / guessing that theres going to be some tax issues, when there is zero legal difference on any class of entry to tax residency (LTR is 0 rated). Tax residency is determined by duration incountry not visa class.

Funny how bangkok have now posted the requirements for extensions for this 'made up notion' 🤣

I will also say they are deleting any comments on the video(s) which show his claims are incorrect, such as the actual requirements published by immigration which he is claiming dont exist, or visa stamps of people obtaining DTV extensions.

If he was actually impartially reporting the facts that would be something to be highlighted not deleted. Opinions should change when presented with counterfactual's if being impartial.

@Greg *******

MFA came up with it, I struggle to believe that high ups in immigration didnt ok the process though.

I dont find anything about its roll out strange.. It came out, people got visas, there is variation around the world (but seems to be standardising over time).. Extensions became possible, regional offices unclear at first, now as those extensions start to be applied for a standard seems to be coming into focus. As per









The fact that its all a bit sloppy in communication and some regional variation or IOs are unclear is almost a hallmark of Thai immigration policy. I cant think of a single class that doesnt have some issues somewhere.

Ben is incredibly highly biased ever since inception.

Really ?? What does this have do with Thai visa rules.

OK great.. Krabi and BKK / Samut Prakan..

Looks like its going to happen countrywide. All the nay sayers suggesting it wasnt going to happen proven to be Chicken Little'ing it on this one.
