Hey! I'm from the UK and have a couple of question I'm hoping someone will be able to help with.
1. Is the best way for me to get 90 days without having to leave Thailand to apply for a 60 day tourist visa and then extend another 30 when I'm there? Are they still doing those extensions? (planning on coming November/December time)
1. Do I have to apply for that when I'm in the UK or given the process is online could I apply for it whilst already abroad? i..e could I fly into Bangkok for a few days (visa on arrival) - head off elsewhere in Asia for a month, apply then and then come back in on the 60 day?
Thanks so much to anyone who can advise! James
TLDR : Answer Summary
A UK citizen seeking to stay in Thailand for 90 days can apply for a 60-day tourist visa, which can be extended for an additional 30 days while in Thailand. It is important to note that visa applications must be made from the applicant's current physical location, so applying from another Asian country is not possible if the individual is in the UK. Alternatives include entering Thailand, using a visa exemption for 30 days, exiting, and then re-entering for another 30 days. An online application process exists, but may still require contact with the embassy depending on individual circumstances.
