Do I need a 60-day visa for Thailand if I plan to stay for 45 days?

lol

have they turned you over...lol

Ron why is it 35...London was 25....

Thai embassy London. 60 day..have to collect next day..do not get it same day..done mine 2 weeks a go

some people...why not ask all the questions on google before you travel. ..so easy

60 day visa from u.k

Get a 2 month one before you arrive. Yes, you can extend for 60 days, but it's 500 baht in taxis too (assuming you're in Bangkok - it is not accessible by train etc) plus could have to do some waiting around once there. Plus the traffic. Not worth the hassle....Get a visa before you arrive, I'd say. Even if it was more expensive, anything is better than waiting around and sitting in traffic, in my opinion.

There you go James Buchanan, from the UK. So free entry plus 1900 baht (£45-50) extension. Or £25 visa plus £10 return fee, via postal charge which incurs a fee, so say about £40. Plus, £7 odd for the royal mail special delivery. Total about £47, then don't forget the £5 for photos from a machine in the UK. Unless you wanna gomto London and just pay the £25...but lose a days work and pay travel fees!!

Extending the visa in country is a pain abit, but pretty easy really. If I ever need to extend, I arrive at the office at 8am, i'm jumping on my bike again at 9.30am. Of course if your staying more than 60 days then the SETV is definitely worth getting, otherwise I'd say there's not really alot in it moneywise.

Of course, the single entry vis from the UK saves you the hassle of extending when you are over there. It's also probably a good idea given the current situation with people getting hassled at the airport.

I would suggest the 60day from home if you have time. I

Depends what passport you are using.. what

@Robert ******

said is true for the type of passport i have. But im not sure that it applies to every nationality. . In the same way that not every passport holder will be given 30 days to stay if they have no visa.. permission to stay without a visa i believe is only 15 days for certain passport holders.. and im not sure whether this can be extended at immigration or for how long.

Single Entry Tourist Visa for 60 days cost 1000 Thb and could be extendend with another 30 days for 1900 Thb or as mentioned Visa Exempt entry 30 days with Extension 1900 Thb for another 30 days but to save 900 Thb and a trip to Immigration depending on where you stay this could take a half day I would recommend the Visa option.

As mentioned...30 day Visa exemption. then extend at immigration...2X copy of passport 1st page, departure card and entry stamp. Passport photos and proof of address(rental or letter from hotel or guarantor of where you are staying)

If you are from a country that can get 30 day Visa Exemption at the airport, then do this and extend by 30 days in country. Cheaper and easier than applying for a 2 month single entry visa in your home country (well, in the UK anyway)

from uk....30 days on arrival...then 30 days extension at any immigration office in thailand...1900..bhat

This info with more detailed explanation of what you need to extend your visa can be easily obtainable with a quick google search.

Depending what passport you have you can get a 30 day visa exempt stamp on entry by air and then extend it by 30 days at your local immigration office with 1900 baht, filling out the correct forms, and providing the right documentation.

You don't need any visa:

Get a 30 day visa exempt stamp when you arrive, then you can get an extra 30 day extension at any Immigration office just paying 1,900 baht

Standard visa that you apply in your country is 60 days and you can extend another 30 days in Thailand if you want to stay longer

get a singie entry befor you come 2 months
