TLDR : Answer Summary
A UK passport holder can enter Thailand multiple times under the visa exemption scheme with no specific entry limit, but it's crucial to prove your status as a genuine tourist to immigration officers. For a 60-day tourist visa, it is a single-entry visa allowing a stay of 60 days, requiring a new visa or re-entry permit for re-entry. A multiple-entry tourist visa allows for several entries within six months, with each stay limited to 60 days.
Peculiar ******
As a UK passport holder, you're eligible for a visa exemption and can enter Thailand without a pre-arranged visa. Here are the answers to your questions:

Visa Exemption

1. *Number of entries with 60-day visa exemption:* There's no specific limit on the number of times you can enter Thailand on a visa exemption. However, immigration officers may ask questions about your intentions, and it's essential to demonstrate that you're a genuine tourist.

60-Day Tourist Visa

1. *Number of entries on a 60-day Tourist Visa:* A single-entry tourist visa allows you to enter Thailand once and stay for up to 60 days. If you leave Thailand, you'll need to apply for a re-entry permit or a new visa to re-enter the country.

Multiple-Entry Tourist Visa

If you plan to enter and exit Thailand multiple times, consider applying for a multiple-entry tourist visa. This type of visa allows you to enter Thailand multiple times within a 6-month period, with each stay limited to 60 days.

Important Notes

- Immigration policies can change, so it's essential to check with the Royal Thai Embassy or Consulate for the latest information.

- Ensure you have a valid passport with at least 6 months' validity and proof of onward travel.

- Be respectful of Thai immigration laws and regulations to avoid any issues during your stay. You should also consider reading a book or two before your travel.. I'd recommend a book "Thailand Unveiled 2024-2025" by James Anderson on Amazon..it has all the info and recommendations you need..you should check it out πŸ˜€

1. There is no limit.

2. As many times as the embassy you go to will grant you one.

No law no rules just do it until they deny you

officially it's two times per year by land entry and no limit by air, but as some have said, "it depends."

How many times you can enter on a visa extension is not the same how long you can cumulatively stay in Thailand on tourist visa exempt entries. If you are staying 180 days a year in Thailand, that suggests you are not a tourist, and there might be reasons you are avoiding applying for a visa, perhaps reasons that that includes grounds fir refusal.

Lots of people want to know this,it's time Thailand made it clear and not different rules to different immigration officers and different borders πŸ™πŸ½

Careful what you wish for πŸ˜‰, you might not like what you get.
Jason ******
@Nigel ********
as long as it's made clear ,it's easier to comply 😜
Brandon ************
@Jason *****
that will happen once the ETA is deployed

There isn’t a set limit

It's not possible for anyone to answer your question becomes its up to the immigration officer that you have to show your passport to its up to them

As you have posted again again and again, up to the IO officer.....

@Braulio ********
What I am saying is that BT could offer other suggestions to come and stay..not just " up to the I /O if you get my drift.πŸ€·β€β™‚οΈ

@Mark *******
The OP asked two specific questions and did not ask for suggestions or alternatives.
Mark ********
@Graham *****
Oh, so you dont give any even if you know a simple fix to their question. Mabye I'm just too helpful.

@Brandon ***********
I thought that was the answer !

@Brandon ***********

Maybe he is a parrot 🦜
John **********
@Mark *******
the only other answer is to get a visa appropriate for your stay. You can't live in Thailand on tourist visas or tourist exempt entries, they've got much stricter on that since they introduced the 60 day visa exempt option
Mark ********
@John *********
Exactly. Maybe I should have been clearer..or wrote a bit slower..πŸ₯΄
Brandon ************
@Mark *******
if it makes you feel better, here is a much longer post from another mod that uses a lot more words to say "as many times as they let you"
