Hey Guys, I have a question. I have a Thailand trip planned for Mid January to March 1st (45 Days). I don't need a visa for single entry) I would like to also take a short 3 day trip to Saigon while I am there. I think I need to apply for a multiple entry visa to do this. I have looked at the Thai eVisa (official Gov site) and the amount of info is staggering for just being able to take a side trip. They even need 6 months of bank info showing I have 200K+ in the bank for an extended amount of time. and proof or US residency, etc. I have no problems with the requirements. But I also know that people do border runs to extend their time. I am looking for opinions. Do I need to do the multiple entry visa process or would a side trip be considered like a border run? I usually just stay the entire trip in Thailand. Thanks.....Just trying to find the easiest avenue.....
TLDR : Answer Summary
The discussion revolves around whether the user needs a multiple entry visa for a short trip to Saigon during their stay in Thailand. Community members suggest that the user can enter Thailand on a visa-exempt basis and then re-enter after their trip to Vietnam without needing a multiple entry visa. They emphasize that it is important to check entry requirements for Vietnam and ensure proper planning for that side trip.
