At BKK Airport: Can I pay cash on arrival for fast-track/VIP lane entry directly to the officer, or does it need to be pre-booked in advance?

Note: No nonsense comments.

A friend arrived at Suvarnabhumi visa exempt and was (we assume) accidentally stamped in for 60 days. Visitors from his country are only permitted 14 days visa exempt. Any idea what might happen if he follows what's been stamped and stays say a total of 3 weeks?

Hi everyone 👋

We are DTV holders and got our visas from our home country. In 2025 we have already flown in and out of Thailand 4 times. Each stay is usually around 3 months, then we fly to another country for a short holiday about a week and come back again.

By the end of 2025, our total time in Thailand will be around 240 days. We are planning to fly to Laos again in January and return after a week.

Just wondering if anyone here has stayed in Thailand for a similar number of days in 2025 and still had no issues re entering at the airport? We would really love to hear your experience.

We have 2 cats waiting for us in Bangkok, so we are a bit nervous about the possibility of being denied entry 😅

Thanks so much in advance!

Hello everyone,

Has anyone else seen on the official website that the visa is approved and sent by email, but did not actually receive the email with the visa? I have checked my spam and junk folders as well, and there is nothing there. Thank you in advance.

I have a few questions and would like to hear from people who have recent experience, because the political situation in Thailand is unstable and there have been some changes to visa regulations.

1. I’ve heard that visa extensions at Immigration can now only be extended for 7 days instead of 30 days. Is this true?

2. If applying for a tourist visa in Laos, is it still possible to get a 3-month visa?

3. What is the current situation regarding student (ED) visas? Has anyone been rejected recently?

Thanks in advance 🙏🏼

,

I’d like to ask for advice from those who have registered a foreign marriage in Thailand and obtained Kor Ror 22 at a district office (Amphur).

I’ve heard that some Amphurs keep the original foreign marriage certificate, while others only keep a certified copy. We only have one original document, so I’m a bit concerned.

Does anyone have recent experience with an Amphur that did not retain the original and accepted copies instead?

I understand that procedures can vary by district and may change over time — just hoping to learn from others’ experiences to choose the best option.

Thank you so much in advance!

How long do we need to be away (third country, not “home”) between 60-day exemptions?

I am a solo mom with two kids, all American passports on a 60 day exemption, which is up on the 26th of Dec. I intend to get a DTV as a digital nomad, but wanted to see how it is before going through the whole process, as this is our first time in Thailand.

My rough plan is to be in Taipei for Feb/ March, and apply for Thai DTV from there. In the meanwhile, we’ll be going to Malaysia over winter break and planning to return Jan 1. We won’t be there long enough to wait for the DTV to go through, so we’d be returning for another exemption. Is 8 days long enough they would be okay with another exemption? Or would they be okay with it because it would be only our second entry?

Alternately we could stay in Thailand over break and apply for an extension but I don’t know how likely it could be refused, or if the 30 days starts the day we apply, or if it gets added to our original date.
