Hey! Thanks for the info! We're heading there next month - it's great to get some clarification on the visa we need to use. 👍

[@martinsaunders4900]

Hi Lloyd, Thanks for all the latest information on Visa in Thailand, cheers 🙏

[@stooneblue]

Look at the lists you display starting 3min 7sec into your video and you'll see that several countries appear both on the exemtion list and the 15-day visa on arrival list. This makes no sense, and until they resolve this, these promised 60-dsy visas ara a no go. I'd imagine a diligent youtuber wold would look into this before posting a video or at least point out that discrepancy.

[@N18DTK]

You've forgot to mention the minimum income threshold required for the digital nomad visa which I believe (could be wrong) is around $80k USD salary for the last 2 years. So considerably more than the average "digital nomad" salary especially those starting out their nomad career in Asia i.e vlogger. This again makes it harder for the average person to move and stay/work in Thailand. Thailand as usual is targeting the "rich visitors" they should have learned by the lack of tourism that it's just become too exspensive compared to other countries nearby, and targeting the rich visitors isn't necessarily working, while trying to push out the average person..

[@damo5791]

Great video, very informative. What visa do you have and how often do you have to leave the country? Also, can you purchase a property in Thailand on a tourist or education visa or do you need to have a retirement or elite visa to do that?

[@marcopolo7396]

very informative, Thanks for sharing!!

[@gfs641]

None of the "new"visas that you were talking about that were announced have not been implemented as yet. Not until published in the Royal Gazette. "Visa on arrival" is different to the " visa exempt " stamp which is 30 days currently . Hopefully 60 days soon.?

[@pepeee548]

You guys on business visa right as working making videos in thailand?

[@hungo7720]

These visas have yet to be implemented by the Thai government. They target at enticing more nomads and tourists to visit Thailand. As a backbone of the Thai economy, the government desperately needs to boost tourism to offset the slump of Chinese visitors.

[@yabanjin5296]

What about the DTV - Destination Thailand Visa?

[@the_wandering_kiwi]

And this is how misinformation spreads. Someone with a platform sharing information on a topic that they don't know enough about. I know their intention is to be helpful but in the end it just confuses people because a lot of the information shared is incorrect. I know it came with the disclaimer "I'm not a visa expert" and "You should talk to a visa agent" but still producing content with incorrect info is more harmful than sharing no info at all.

[@gfs641]

Yes I agree Intent to help ppl was good (though to boost viewing numbers) But some info was incorrect

[@the_wandering_kiwi]

@@gfs641 Yeah he really mucked up that section at 2:50 by not mentioning "Tourist Visa Exempt" and just talking about everything as if it was "Visa on Arrival" which as you and I know they are two different things and should be discussed separately.

[@myweblab]

2:50 1. sure the passport need only 30 days validity remaining ? How can they give a visa of 60 days if you have only 30 days remaining....🤡 2. Sure you need to proof of fund to survive in thailand ????? We need to bring our bank accont ? I think this 2 info are strange..... You can confuse your audience...check it and do a new video with correct info...

[@brendahunter6302]

My mom bought her ticket for 3 weeks

[@Moira1309]

I am from the Netherlands and we get a visa free entry for normally 30 days than you do not need an application form and no picture you only have to show a return ticket.

[@dracarys3137]

Which will change into 60 days ...What is your point ?

[@the_wandering_kiwi]

@Moira1309 Yeah he kind of mucked up this section between 2:50 and 4:40. He merged the info for people entering on Tourist Visa Exemptions and Visa On Arrival together. They're actually two separate things and should be discussed separately because they have different sets of requirements for entry. He didn't mention entering on Tourist Visa Exemptions nor did he discuss the requirements for entering this way. I think that was an oversight considering this is how most people enter Thailand. Instead he spoke about the requirements for entering on a Visa on Arrival and the video made it seem like entering on a Tourist Visa Exemption had the same requirements as entering on a Visa on Arrival. This is incorrect and I can see by the comments that it is a source of confusion for those watching.

[@Moira1309]

@@dracarys3137 he was talking about visa on arrival will be 60 days that is something else than visa free entry. So I was wondering if they also get to 60 days.

[@Moira1309]

@@the_wandering_kiwi that is what I was wondering so visa free entry is still 30 days than.

[@the_wandering_kiwi]

@@Moira1309 Yes visa free entry is still 30 days, but there's talk of it changing to 60 days soon. As it stands right now though it's just talk and might not ever happen. Here is a link to the official Thailand Ministry of Foreign Affairs website that outlines how long each person is entitled to enter Thailand depending on which passport they have. It is up to date with what is currently being used by officials. image.mfa.go.th/mfa/0/zE6021nSnu/VOA.pdf

[@propheticpig868]

Great news for me. I'm 59. Easy to get my retirement visa. Before now, you had to get it in your home country. Now I can get it in Thailand. If this video is correct. Plus , they doubled the time for the standard tourist visa from 30 to 60 days. Awesome. I'm a bloody Yank, BTW. I'm getting out of here, before the US Empire collapses completely, and that will happen soon. Bye bye America, and good riddance too.

[@gfs641]

The 60 day visa exempt has not started yet. Only talk at the moment until published in the Royal Gazette. I been on the retirement visa past 2 years. Use an agent to get it saves a lot of red tape It costs more than if u do it yrself but a lot easier

[@phyuckyu]

None of these KZbinrs know what they are talking about 😂

[@heinz8717]

I stopped watching after 5 minutes. To much fake news, be careful. He not even knows the difference between visa on arrival and visa excemption

[@gfs641]

@@heinz8717 he needs to delete this one. Redo it once he has current up to date correct information.
