Hi all,

Thank you Tod and James for all the information here.

My METV will expire 16 January 2024 and i will do border run this 22th December.

So is the next stamp will be 2 months meaning will be before the last day of visa expiration which is 16 Jan.

no visa extension on this METV yet.

Answer summary

The user seeks advice on managing their Multiple Entry Tourist Visa (METV) set to expire on 16 January 2024, with a border run planned for 22 December 2023. Responses suggest that the user should do a 30-day extension leading up to January and then exit and re-enter Thailand before the visa expiration for a new 60-day stamp, which can also be extended.

Do a 30 day extension next to take you to January then exit and re-enter before 16-Jan to get your final 60 day entry stamp which can also be extended for 30 days.

Yes, You must enter before 23:59 on 16 January to get the last 60 days stamp.

(every time you enter ON or before 16 January 2024 (as on the METV sticker/ePDF), you will be stamped for a whole new 60 days 59 nights.)
