TLDR : Answer Summary
Recent communications indicate that Thailand's entry for tourists has reverted back to a standard 30-day allowance. Despite previous discussions about extending this to 45 or even 60 days, the current situation confirms the 30-day rule remains in place. There are ongoing debates and confusion about potential future changes, with some suggesting adjustments might be implemented by the end of June or early July. Commentary from expats highlights the uncertainty and communication missteps surrounding these visa changes.

Just like the Russians they've revoked 30 days from their visas 🀣

Not surprised

It never changed from the 30 days visa exempt, they just jumped the gun and hopefully learnt a lesson.
Matthew ******
The news was correct, the bill passed but still gone to the house for finalisation. Should be in effect in the next few months.

The greatest trick the πŸ‘Ώ ever pulled was convincing the world he doesn't exist πŸ˜‚ just like extension speech πŸ˜•

I heard the 60 day will start end june / ear;ly July. Anybody know if we will be able to get the 30 day extension on the new visa ? Same as we can on the 30 day at the moment. Also heard it will only be temporary , hope not anybody heard anything about this.

Im confident the UK Government dont rely on the press to update their website πŸ˜‚

@Andy *******
The Irish government reported the same line. I suspect a miscommunication from the Thai Embassies.

Maybe they realized Brits cause nothing but trouble and are not worth giving an extra free 30

I mainly refer to most of your male compatriots in the 12-92 age group that I've ever met. Of course exceptions exist. My best mate is one πŸ˜„

What a tool you are.

Based on what stats are you coming out with that crap. I can mention dozens of countries where they have less respect when abroad than the British.

@Pedro ******
That was a while ago at the end of the Covid saga to boost tourism
John *********
It never went to 60 days lollll
Rene ********
It never changed yet
Rene ********
Talk about jumping the gun....wait for government gazette! Do you think a lot of these people went to school?
Stuart *********
Yes. They probably learnt that it’s not wise to rely on press articles to guide on Thai policy changes.

@Stuart ********
no MFA had a problem on their site on Thursday. I looked to send to a friend on Friday 30th and the MFA replaced it with the implemented late June early July. Guess MFA didn't tell Immi.
