Does anyone know If coming in on tourist visa exempt (ie 30 days), when asked on the Thailand pass registration how many days we will be staying in Thailand, will it be a problem to state 59 days (since we can get a tourist extension for 30 more days)? Or should we state 30 days on the registration, and then just get an extension when we are in Thailand?

Update: it has been approved. So it appears not a problem to state staying 59 days under tourist exempt. Applied @10am UK time 10 Nov, received pass 11 Nov 9pm, travelling 27th Nov 🥂. Thanks for all the replies!
Answer summary
The original question inquired about the implications of stating a stay of 59 days on the Thailand Pass registration when entering Thailand on a visa-exempt 30-day tourist entry. The consensus among respondents was to initially state 30 days, as this aligns with the entry stamp, and to apply for an extension while in Thailand. Several users shared experiences where they indicated longer stays without issue, suggesting that stating a longer duration might not be problematic as long as travelers have a justification for their presence and comply with extension regulations.

Looking at my previous stamps there is nothing showing how many days it just shows your entry date, then next to it is the exit stamp showing leaving date. Have matching extension to justify your time in Thailand then no issue.

Entry stamps always show the date you shall leave the country (or ask for an extension). Unless thinks have changed recently.

I just looked at old passport as waiting for my newer one to come back from embassy and have some have the date some don't but have where it should be. The last 2 don't but I was on a visa 0 prior to covid. That maybe why do you think ?

weird. All my passports have a date limit on Thailand entry stamps since 34 years ago.

The only travelers without a date are permanent residency permit holders.

But you are required to show a return ticket. Is it a problem to show a return in 30 days if you say you are leaving in 60 or 90 days?

Just to be clear, should the return ticket say more than 30 days on a 30 day stamp?

If you ask for a 30 day stamp and say you are leaving in 90 days, do you run the risk of Immigration saying you should have applied for a Visa?

You aren't bound by putting in a date, so just put in how long you will be stamped in for upon arrival.

@Wannikea ********
that would be 30 days then as we won’t be applying for the 60 day tourist visa 🤔

@William ***************
the You get a 30 day extension from the TR 60 so people often say TR 60+30. Just means you can show an onward flight within 90 days, not just 60.

@Wayne ********
they ask the same question on the visa applications, which are also used on the Thai pass, Thai pass is just the certificate of entry last year

They seem to be fine including available extensions for your intended stays
