Can I use two different passports to extend my stay in Thailand with border runs?

Yes

Non

If you waste your time reading all the comments like I did you should realise this guy is just jerking chains!

You can fly out and try to enter with a different passport. It will probably work for a couple of times and you will get more visa exemption time.

But eventually they will link your two passports together sooner or later and then it's the same thing as having only one passport

Why do people always seek to cheat?

The law is the law.

If you have nothing to hide. If you are honest and with good intentions. Then you follow the law.

Get a visa if you want to stay longer.

For god's sake. Is the price of a visa really to much?

Besides. Your question is as stupid as can get.

You seek advice on doing illegal stuff. I hope they kick you out.

I even hope immigration is looking these groups as well and block you.

It's because of idiots like you the laws get more and more difficult.

Yes, many people do this to scam the system

This is the reason immigration are making it harder for genuine visitors to enter Thailand.

Telling everyone your a selfish prick without saying it.

No. Fingerprint and Mugshot will tell them. Welcome to 2026

I’ve been asked if I have two passports when entering. I believe they already knew the answer to that question. So that should go some way to answering your question.

You are required to show both passports when entering the country by law.

They use hand and face biometrics. So what exactly are you trying to accomplish?

Circumventing the system will just lead to more immigration changes in the future. Just get the right visa for your stay in Thailand

Eye and fingerprint scanner will show immigration that you have 2 passports and yes you can use both passports but they will know and question you why you are entering Thailand with a different passport, personally I would use the same one.

Of course. But expect questions as to why and the missing stamps in Passport 2. Better to fly

There is always someone who wants to play the system.

Stay 30 then go get an extension for 30 then leave the country, come back for 30, then get another extension for 30

What's the point?

you may have 20 passports .anyway you are in the system . so there is no way to escape the rules .

As Thailand catches up with the rest of the world making everything digital everything stored on systems and systems communicating with each other, these little scams (call it what they are) will eventually fizzle out and you will get caught, but you can always take the risk until you can't

I actually asked an immigration officer. Makes no difference which passport you use on any crossing as you fingerprint and facescan will be the same.

Possibly setting yourself up for a world of aggravation to achieve what?

Are you stupid?

It's because of people like you, that are too fn tight to pay for a tourist visa, that Thailand government are changing rules and make it harder for everyone. Just get a fucking visa, do the right thing and stop looking for shortcuts to save $100.

dual passport should not be allowed first.. and second.. especially to people with a limited brain like you..

Imo..

You not need to. Use 2 passports you can apply for 30 days extension inside Thailand and you can make 2 border run in 6 months

Facial recognition might trip you up, but it is not very good manners to visit a foreign country and attempt to manipulate this way…these people are very friendly but they are also very sensitive about foreigners who don’t stay between the lines….i have not heard a single good word about Thai jail….

You are finger-printed whenever you enter Thailand at Immigration. So it probably won't matter, and it will probably get you questioned.

You can try it and when immigration figures it out they will possibly just ban you for a few years 🤔 or you could get the proper visa that suits you.

Finger prints remain the same

I also have two passports ( from being in Saudi & Israel,) and have used both passports to enter Thailand no issues,

Not dodgy at all, lots of people have 2 passports for lots of different reasons. Have had friends who had 2 passports from the same issuing country as they worked in certain countries and that caused them problems.

What about your fingerprints? And what’s your answer when someone asks you why you are trying to circumvent the law?

James bond or what

My daughter comes on Aust passport we go Vietnam and come back on thai passport

My wife leaves Australia on her Australian passport, enters on her Thai passport, leaves on her Thai passport and enters Australia on her Australian passport, never had any issues at either end.

Get the clothes iron out to remove fingerprints and buy yourself two sets of cosmetic contact lens different colors one for each passport

yeah...uhhh nope!...lol

What do you want to achieve by doing that?

Why are you not applying for an extension at the immigration? If you are planning to stay in Thailand for 60 days, why are you not applying for a tourist visa?

What you are trying to do might not be illegal, but it will definitely raise concerns at the immigration. Immigration has fingerprints and a photo of you so they know immediately that your biometrics are also linked to another passport in their system.

Yes you can but the passports are linked on the system. It’s to no benefit

Don't get yourself into trouble mate

Everyone crying about Thailand being strict about boarder runs and canceling the 60 day visa exempt but shit like this is the reason why 😂

The thai immigration is not stupid

Danger Danger

My son had an USA and a Philippine passport. He flew in and out of Thailand with his Philippine passport...then did the same with his USA passport....two times to Kuala Lumpur. The third time...we overheard immigration discuss that fact...when he went in for his extension. He didn't do the land border. This was three years ago....Chiang Mai to KUL

Why would you?

Yes, you can. And an immigration officer can ask you why you come on different passports.

Your passports are linked in the computer you’re not fooling the IO’s

Best to do it by air through Singapore. They probably have the best plastic surgeons there to change your facial biometrics and alter your fingerprints 😆

That depends on what you mean by "border run." You cannot change passports at a land border, as you must stamp out of Thailand on the passport you used to enter Thailand, and then the foreign land border will require you to stamp in on the passport you used to stamp out of Thailand. Same goes for the trip back to Thailand.

The only way to change passports is to fly out and fly back in.

Second, what exactly are you trying to achieve? You will not gain any extra time in Thailand doing this. You are actually asking for even more problems than using the same passport, as immigration will immediately have your full record as soon as you put your fingers on the fingerprint reader. They will see your change of passports as trying to hide something, and give you extra scrutiny because of it.
