The current regulation allows a foreign national to receive a maximum of two 30-day visa stamps per calendar year when entering Thailand over land. After utilizing the two stamps in November and December, the user inquires about receiving two more 30-day stamps after the start of the new calendar year in January. Comments suggest that while January does reset the count, travelers should be aware of possible scrutiny from immigration if they frequently enter on 30-day stamps. Additionally, it is advised to have more than six months of validity remaining on a passport when traveling to avoid complications.

Before we keep on going into the discussion why people choose what and how to live inside Thailand, I close the commenting. As mentioned in the description of the page, we give advice and do not judge. What you do with the advice is your decision. And for those who think Facebook is only for tourist visiting Thailand, be surprised. Immigration has their own Facebook page and their officers are members on many facebook pages. [url redacted]

Married to Thai and waiting because only 6 months left in my current passport which is why they won't give me a year visa in savannaket

New passport, i hope because it is full or the expiry date is there. There is no benefit at Immigration with a new passport other than enough pages to put stamps is. And on what basis you want to apply for the Non Immigrant O visa and why wait?

Eventually getting a new passport then to savannaket, Laos for a non O multiple entry visa, hence why 30 days etc

Andrew ****** · Answer

Yes i meant by land. Just wanted to clarify November and December 2 times then into January a fresh year so another 2 to Myanmar and back is ok.
