ORIGINAL POSTER

Hi everyone,

I’m in Thailand at the moment on my 60 day tourist visa (single entry) which expires on the 21st January. Is there any way I can visit Vietnam and be allowed to return to Thailand to board my return flight back to the UK?

Many thanks

TLDR : Answer Summary

The user seeks advice on traveling to Vietnam while holding a 60-day single-entry tourist visa in Thailand, set to expire soon. It is suggested that the user should obtain a re-entry permit to ensure re-entry into Thailand after the Vietnam visit. This way, the user can return and catch the flight back to the UK as planned.

As you have a Tourist Visa ...just get a reentry permit before you go to Vietnam.

Alternatively, you can pay for a reentry permit that will allow you to use your visa without the need for a visa waiver.

You'll need a re-entry permit to come back into Thailand OR get a visa exemption when you return. Or return and transit Thailand to continue your homebound flight.

You'll get stamped back in for 30 days that should be enough time

Daulton Harris just thinking as my Thai visa is single-entry and coming back to Bangkok would make it multi entry? My return flight from Bangkok is the 20th January
