Hi everyone,

My husband is currently on a non-b visa, his current job/contract is finished so he will leave thailand without a re-entry permit, his visa and work permit will be cancelled and re-enter on a visa exemption for 45 days.

His current visa expires on the 2nd of Jan, my question is, can he fly in the morning to Ho Chi Minh and fly back on the evening? Or is there a 24 hours rule or something?

Thank you 🙏🏼
Answer summary
The user is asking whether their husband can leave Thailand to Ho Chi Minh City and return on the same day without violating any immigration rules after his non-B visa and work permit are canceled. Comments indicate that there is no specified time limit to stay out of Thailand for the re-entry on a visa exemption, so a same-day trip is possible, but one commenter humorously suggests spending more time in Ho Chi Minh City.

He could… but HCMC is an awesome party city and epic to spend time in. So he could definitely take a few days of festivities there first

I’m saying it can easily be done. Flight dependent.

But would be crazy lol

you badly missed the mark. City is epic. Outrageous sights and shopping. World class speakeasies and whisky bars, vibrant, stunning, rooftop skybars, epic nightlife and street food. It’s a hard city to screw up. But some people manage

I found HCMC more like hell on Earth and was glad to get out of there.

No time limit to stay out. If you can organise flights for the same day then that’s fine.
