I did 2 border runs (Laos & Malaysia). The immigration told me I have to fly out to get access to Thailand again. I read now that there is a 60 days visa on arrival. Some experienced this? Or do I have to go to the immigration (not sure where to fly to yet) to apply for the 60 days? If so, how long approx does it take time?🙏🏼

Next time get the right visa for the length of stay you wan’t before leaving for Thailand.

Should have started out with a 60 day Touristvisa + 30 days extension.

Then no need to be crossing borders for 90 days.

You can still come without a visa. You just have to fly in

that may work until he gets the wrong immigration officer, better chance if he has an actual visa.

Tourist Visa applications take different times based on the Embassy/Consulate that serves the country you will be applying from. Check their website for timescales and requirements then start here to see if you can use the eVisa system.

There is no 60 days on arrival. It's a proposal and no one knows of or when it will come into effect.

how bout tr visa?

a tourist visa will give you 60 days when you arrive and you can apply one time for a 30 day extension. You would need to go to a Thai embassy or consulate and apply in person. Check the website of the one you want to go to as they each set their own requirements and some require an appointment.

if you apply for extension, yes. But don't miscount, as the day you enter Thailand is day 1.
