TLDR : Answer Summary

Yes, after a border bounce, you can receive a new 60-day entry stamp in Thailand, which can be extended once for an additional 30 days. It's advisable to have an onward ticket when entering Thailand on a visa exemption, especially for re-entry.

If you don’t have any previous excessive travel history in and out of Thailand you can probably get two 60 days visa exemption with extension without any issues. Formally you’ll need an onward ticket out of Thailand within the initial 60 days when you enter on visa exemption, -also for your re-entry.

Yes. Doing a border bounce will get you a new 60 day entry stamp, which you can extend once for 30 days.

Considering the 60 day stamps didn’t start until 15th July you may be a bit ahead of yourself. Worry about what’s the rules in October.

Not saying there will be any changes.

Then maybe it’s more easy for you to just do two 60 days visa exemptions as you planned, if you buy a changeable ticket you should be fine.

If you want to register your marriage in Thailand at one point for longer stays in the future, (60 days extension for visiting thai family and one year extension of stay on a Non O visa based on marriage), this is the way to go in Norway and I guess it’s more or less the same in Sweden.

Registrering ekteskap i Thailand;

1) Hente et internasjonalt utdrag av vigselsattesten fra din kommune

2)Legalisere hos UDI

3)Legalisere ved ambassaden i Bangkok

3)Oversette til thai

4)Legalisere ved Foreign Affairs i Bangkok

5)Registrering ved lokalt Amphur.

a marriage in Sweden is legal in Thailand. However to get that “recognised” in Thailand may need some documentation from your government and your local Thai embassy.

In the UK you have to have the marriage certificate certified from some government department in Milton Keynes and then notarised by the London Thai Embassy. I can’t remember the exact steps but it’s a pain in the arse. I’d assume it’s similar for Sweden. But a legal marriage in Sweden in still a legal marriage in Thailand. You may just have to jump through hoops to get it recognised as such.

I remember you previously also told you’re married to a thai. This gives you possibility to enter on a 60 days visa exemption, do a 30 days tourist extension AND a 60 days additional extension visiting thai family. (Your wife has to be present and your marriage has to be registered in Thailand). But anyway as Stuart states, you might need an onward ticket out within the initial 60 days if your airline requires it.

That’s going to be up to your airlines policy. Immigration will generally not care as they know you can get an extension but some airlines will insist on an onward ticket out of Thailand within the number of days your entry scheme allows, regardless that you could possibly get an extension.
