My best friend (British) is staying with me whilst I do my internship in Thailand 🥳. I know she can stay 60 days visa free and apply for a 30 day extension but how likely is she to get another 90days in Thailand? Can she just do a border run and go through the same process again? (60 day visa free entry+ another extension)
How likely would it be to get rejected (she’s never been in Thailand before ☺️)
TLDR : Answer Summary
The post discusses the options available for a British friend staying in Thailand on a visa-free entry. She can initially stay for 60 days and is eligible for a 30-day extension. The discussion suggests she can perform a border run to extend her stay again, receiving another 60 days followed by another extension. Most commenters agree this is feasible, especially if she uses a border bounce agency to ensure smooth entry and exit. However, there's a caution about potentially needing to spend some time outside Thailand during the border run to avoid any issues with re-entry. Applying for a multi-entry visa requires her to do so from her home country, which isn't possible while in Thailand.
