ORIGINAL POSTER

Hi guys,

I arrived in Bangkok on the 31st of May and left on the 10th of June. I had a 30-day stamp. I need to return to Thailand next week after backpacking; I'm currently in Vietnam. Should I apply for a tourist visa?

I hold an Italian passport.

Any advice is much appreciated.

TLDR : Answer Summary

The user, holding an Italian passport, inquires about the need for a tourist visa to return to Thailand after a recent trip that included a 30-day visa exemption. Comments suggest that the user can return under visa exemption for another 30 days or apply for a tourist visa for 60 days plus a possible extension.

You can enter visa exempt again for 30 days (plus 30) or if you need longer get a tourist visa which would give you 60+30.
