Still 60 days and if it did drop you can still get a 30 day extension from local immigration.

Do what I do, I use 28 days as a base for one month. By doing that I am unlikely to stay more than I’m allowed.

Typically arrival day is minus 1 but don,t leave your departure to last day .... its not a good time to overstay in Thailand.

Generally, when I used to do the visa free entry, rt depended on the shift of the officer. I would suggest 29 days from the day you arrive.

I was 'docked' a day at the border when getting my 60 day visa and it ends at 23:59 on the 59th day
My advice: leave on day 29 (June 28th), or pay the 500 baht for a 1 day ovestay.

GoldLizard2937 you weren't docked anything. The day you enter Thailand is the first day you're in Thailand. The next day is day 2.

Can you not count on the calendar.

First day is arrival day.
Last day is when you go thru immigration. For you, if you go thru immigration July 29th just before midnight and your flight is July 30th after midnight, it would be fine.

Uschi Schreib if the Departures time is only an hr or two after midnight and you had underguessed the departure day, get checked in and past the IO before 23:59... the extra time then spent waiting in departures taxfree area will be more relaxing...

When you are born at 23:59 is your birthday counted as the following day?
Shane ********
Visa exemption is still 60 days, but for argument's sake; yes. Arrival any time on June 30 means departure date is July 29

This question a bit tricky. Not all countries practice the same way. Every Countries rules are different
Enter 30Jun, allow to stay 30days, doesnt mean exit 29July. Some countries, last date of departure is on 30July.
Same goes for airticket. Departs 30Jun2026, 30days validity air-ticket, last date to use the return portion is on 30Jul2026

Wee Fong neither it’s tricky, neither there’s difference for different countries.
You simply count calendar days with entry day being day 1.
In this case June 30th is day one even if he arrives at 23:50 in Thailand , 15 minutes later it would be day 2
You count calendar days, not 24h block from entry time.

Wee Fong not tricky at all.

Wee Fong this is a Thai visa advice group. The question is about Thailand. Yes, it DOES mean July 29 is the departure date
Nick *******
Think first thing you should do is buy a Calender. 🙄
Kim *********
Nick Green if he is slow he can count on his fingers. If he is fast he subtract 1 from 30 which will give him the exit date 😅

Give yourself a few days for screwups and shenanigans. You can always layover in Korea for a few days.

@Jeremy *******
good question, if they count day of arrival as day one technically day one should be next day after 24 hours!!!
John ***********
Petr S. Van Valkenburg Regardless of what time of day you arrive the moment you clear Immugration is counted as day 1.
Graham ******
Petr S. Van Valkenburg you tell that to the Immigration Officer who is about to stamp your passport and see how you get on

Robert **********
Don't you own a calendar? You can not count?
Petr *********************
Robert G Viset should be 30 nights they shouldn't count arrival day as day one, that is the question , Thailand is cheating in this regard, I had this argument about overnight parking fee, they charged me 2 days for less than 24 hours, day 1 arrival day 2 leaving in their twisted logic, everywhere in the world one day is 24 hours but not in Thailand!!!!!
Graham ******
Petr S. Van Valkenburg It is 30 days but just 29 nights
Brandon ************
@Petr ********************
You cannot spend ZERO days in a country. As soon as you arrive, that is the first day you are inside of Thailand.

Yes, July 29th would be day 30.

@Brandon ***********
and 30 days is 720 hours so should be July 30thBrandon ************
@Petr ********************
The day of arrival is day 1. Plus 29. That is July 29th. Your opinion is irrelevant and does not dictate the Thai government's policy.

Arrival is day 1
