I must buy visa or it's ok while leaving thailand to malaysia?
Answer summary
The user is a Mauritian traveling with family to Thailand, with departures and returns involving multiple entries. They are unsure whether a visa is necessary due to their itinerary, which includes a visit to Malaysia. Recommendations suggest opting for a multiple entry tourist visa, as the visa exemption for Mauritian passport holders is limited to 15 days, and this would not cover their travel plans adequately.

from my point of few...... why do it complicate ? Go first to Kuala Lumpur and than to Thailand, and do a single entry visa and all good ;-)

You will get 30 day visa exemption on entry to Thailand. Then another on your return.

You will need to complete the TDAC before entry on both occasions.

Ralph Tyson incorrect, Mauritian passport holders (along with Seychelles) get 15 days

David E Moore Ok. The reference I found online differed. Can you link me to your reference? I don’t want to get it wrong again!

It sounds to me like you should buy a multiple entry tourist visa for Thailand. Mauritius passport holders now only get 15 days visa exemption which wouldn't cover your 2 entry of 21 nights and I wouldn't risk a single entry tourist visa as they may make you use it on your first entry

you can’t save the visa for the second entry?

Anna Persson You can't make that choice, only the Thai Immigration officer. They generally would insist on using the visa.

you can ask immigration but they may just insist that because you have a visa you should use it
