Hi everybody!I want to ask a question...im from greece and I will be in thailand at the end of the month but I don't know how long I will stay exactly, so If want to stay more than 30 days can I get a visa in bangkok?
Answer summary
If you're from Greece and plan to stay in Thailand for more than 30 days, it's recommended to apply for a Single Entry Tourist Visa at the Thai Consulate in Athens before your trip. This visa grants you a 60-day stay, which can be extended for an additional 30 days at a local Immigration office for 1,900 baht. Upon arrival in Thailand, you will initially receive a 30-day Visa Exempt Entry, which can also be extended by 30 days for the same fee. Note that you cannot obtain a tourist visa once in Bangkok.

I would say get a single entry tourist visa from the thai consulate in Athens BEFORE you wing your way here. That will stamp you in for 60 days and you could extend that by 30 more days for 1900baht.

Spiros Beshiris as people pointed out you aren't going to get ANY visa when you fly into the country. :/

You will get stamped in for free for 30 days on a visa exempt entry and you can extend that for 30 more days at the immigration office for 1900baht.

NO, you can not get a tourist visa in Bangkok. If you come to Thailand you get 30 days Visa Exempt Entry (entry without visa) you can extend this stay with 30 days at local Immigration office for 1.900 Thb. OR you can by the Single Entry Tourist Visa before you make your way to Thailand at a Thai Consulate or Embasssy and than you will get 60 days of stay. This visa cost 1.000 Thb.

That will be another 30 day extension and if you want to stay longer you'll have to do a visa run to another country.
