6-months Tourist Visa multi entry how does it work

The ”multi-entry permit” means, you can do as many exits and re-entries as you wish, during the period of the visa validity, which is 6 months from the date of issue. You should not apply for the visa any earlier than three months from the date of your planned flight. The best way is to apply between 5 and 6 weeks before your planned flight, this covers most Thai embassies predicted processing period.

A multi entry tourist visa works like this:

On each entry into Thailand, you will get stamped in for a 60-days stay permit. You can extend these 60 days stay permit with another 30 days on Immigration for 1900.- THB. Before the accumulated 90 days stay permit expire, you need to exit Thailand.

That’s why you never need to do a 90-days report on Immigration inside Thailand.

Alternatively, you can leave Thailand before the first 60 days stay permit expires, do a “border run” and upon return to Thailand, you will get stamped in for 60 days, again

The METV is valid for use for 6 months, starting on the day of issue. The EXPIRY DATE of the visa can be checked on the pdf. e-visa document which you received by Email and which you have to print out, to show it to the officials at the borders, under “visa must be used by” and the date

During the 6-month visa validity, EACH entry into Thailand will grant you a 60-days stay permit.

If you do a “border run” on the last day of the visa validity, you will get stamped in for 60 days for the last time. Thus will theoretically give you 8 months in Thailand

Now with a last 30 days extension, you theoretically can stay in Thailand for almost 9 months.

Normally a METV must be applied for in your home country of residence, however we have received reports that the Thai embassies of Vientiane and Hanoi have accepted METV applications from tourists

Normally, the Thai embassy that processes your e-visa application will not issue the visa too early. They will wait until you are very close to your planned flight date, so you don’t lose too many days of the visa validity. So, after you have applied for this visa-category, you should not be impatient while you wait for the approval.
