ORIGINAL POSTER
I have an OA visa in my UK passport that expires shortly. I did not enter Thailand on it due to complications related to the pandemic.

When it has expired and I want to fly to Thailand can I still enter using the usual 30 day Visa Exemption for arrivals for British passport holders?

Thanks

Yes you can. You’d get 30 days on entry, which is extendable for 30 more
