Answer summary
An Indian citizen entering Thailand via border (Chongmek) can obtain a Visa On Arrival, which allows for a 15-day stay. However, there are no official restrictions on the number of entries with this visa, though individuals should be prepared to provide proof of funds, onward travel, and accommodation booking upon entry. It is important to note that entrance policies can vary, and repeated entries might be scrutinized.

That has NOTHING to do with the 21 countries that BUY a 15 day visa on arrival when they enter the country for 2000baht.

India not on the list

There is NO official number of visa on arrival entries a person can make. However be prepared to show proof of funds, proof of onward travel and proof of a hotel booking in case you are asked by the officer when you buy your 15 day visa-on-arrival for 2000baht at the border stamping in

People need to understand that not everyone gets in to thailand on a free 30 day visa exempt entry. In fact ONLY 51 countries do. Some countries need to buy a visa to thailand before they come here and some countries by a visa on arrival good for 15 days when they arrive. <- One of those countries being India ;)

I live in VTE and we got only twice on border, some tried to do it for 3rd time they were sent back. (Exemption rule for Singaporeans)

That is only when U use the Visa Exempt Entry, Indian Nationals need a Visa on Arrival.

The only Visa you can get at the border is the Visa On Arrival which will give you 15 days of stay as Indian passport holder.

Indian citizens can buy the visa on arriving, not before entering.Robert *******
Trevor Mead I try again. Indian passport holders buy the Visa on Arrival before they enter the country, so they will have a visa and the rule of two Visa Exempt Entries a calendar is not legible for them.

2 land crossings per year I thought entering Thailand with no visa prior to coming here?

@Trevor *****
That's only for visa exempt entries.Robert *******

You can only cross 2 times by land per year kinda waste of time to even try to be honest
