Can I visit Thailand three times a year under the 30-day visa exemption?

WEll do the math you only go for 14 / 20 day and its a 30 day stame any clues there ????

🙄 not good at maths are you bud

How many days do you get visa exempt?? is that more or less than your planned stay?? There is the answer.

14-20 is less than 30 🤷‍♂️

Obviously as 20 days is less than 30

Yes

Yes your a tourist

No only 2 holidays is what they are saying g

When does this new rule apply from or is it just here say. Arrivals coming through Suvarnaphum ( excuse spelling ) are still being stamped 60 days ??

yes of course.

Be careful, you could be refused

I'm not a math whiz, but I'm pretty sure 14 or 20 easily fit within 30

As the only other two helpful people posted. I have also read that there will only be allowed two visa exempt entries per calendar year. 1 30 days every 180 days.

No not possible, mate really? Not rocket science

Weird comment

Is this a retorical question

You will need to wait and see if there is any restriction on the number of entries you can have, If it returns to the way it previously was you should have no problems. I travelled like this from Australia for many years. PS don't take any notice of those responders who didn't understand your question but are more interested in ridicule!!!!!

Currently you are only allowed 2 visa exempt entries per year so your third trip will require you getting a visa.

But of course TIT so nobody really knows what the policies will be next week much the less next year.

Amateur

I believe the underlying question here is how many 30 day visa exempt visits are allowed per year?

Just wait until thailand sorts out the final plan ... just guess work at this stage for us. We will know in a couple of weeks. I expect visa prices to go up 🤔

Yes no problem

What an odd question.

As of now you are typically limited to 2 visa exempt entries per calendar year, but this is at the discretion of the immigration officer. You might need to file for a proper visa for your third entry.

What sort of retarded post is this

E visa

Last i checked 14-20 days is LESS than 30 days. visa exemption 🤨. Simple mathematics

That's what the AI says...... On May 19, 2026, the Thai Ministry of Foreign Affairs presented the detailed breakdown of countries under the new system. To avoid confusion, the strict rule now applies: only one, clear entry system per country.

The affected nations are now divided into the following four main groups:

1. The new 30-day tourist regulation (54 countries)

This is the group whose visa-free stay has been reduced from 60 days to 30 days. This includes most of the classic Western tourist markets.

Affected countries: Germany, Austria, Switzerland, the remaining EU member states, the USA, Canada, the UK, Australia, New Zealand, Japan, Malaysia, and some Gulf states (such as Kuwait and Bahrain).

Condition: Applies exclusively to purely tourist purposes.

2. The 30-Day Bilateral Agreement (9 countries/territories)

These countries also retain the right to stay for 30 days, not through the general tourism exemption, but through established, existing government agreements with Thailand.

Affected countries: China, Russia, Hong Kong, Macau, Vietnam, Laos, Kazakhstan, Mongolia, and East Timor.

3. The Unchanged 90-Day Countries (5 countries)

Nothing changes here. Due to special, long-term bilateral agreements, citizens of these five nations may continue to stay in the country without a visa for up to 90 days.

Affected countries: South Korea, Argentina, Brazil, Chile, and Peru.

4. Special Cases: Shortened Entry Periods (15 or 14 days)

Some smaller countries or neighboring states have been assigned to significantly shorter entry periods:

15 days visa-free: Maldives, Mauritius, and Seychelles.

14 days visa-free (only via airport): Cambodia and Myanmar.

Visa on Arrival (reduced to 4 countries): Countries that previously allowed spontaneous purchase of a 15-day visa at the airport (such as India or Taiwan) are largely being removed from this system and will now have to apply for an e-visa online in advance or fall under the more strictly vetted remaining categories.

If they're separate vacations, it shouldnt matter.

Well seeing as though 14 to 20 days per visit are less than 30 days, then there's no drama ffs ! 🙄

If you are worried, you could enter two times on visa exemption and one time apply for a tourist visa

Wait until the new guidelines are published to find out. But you can apply for a tourist visa online regardless, so your plans won't need to change.
