What are the best visa options for British passport holders traveling to Thailand for 65 days?

eVisa for up to 90 days can be got from the Thai Embassy London I find them very quick and efficient

If you only go to KL out of necessity, then know that you can extend the 30 days visa excempt with another 30 days.

Or you could get a 60 day touristvisa by applying online at

thaievisa.go.th

Thats cheaper than a extension at the Immigration.

It’s a mistake to order 65 days without checking visa options first, since if you go visa excempt + 30 days extension, you need to go out of Thailand and in again to get the last 5 days.

If choosing 60 day touristvisa, you need to extend that for the last 5 days.

Remember to have a onward ticket in every visa period

30 + 30 + 30 days = 3 onward flighttickets including the returnticket.

60 + 30 days = 2 onward flighttickets including the returnticket

Why not take the train to Malaysia?

Just get a 90 day visa and then you are done. Not expensive

Perfect plan - as long as the kL tickets are booked before departure

Did you want to go to KL or are you going specifically for a visa? If you didn’t want to leave Thailand you could apply for a visa to cover that amount of time with one extension before you leave 👍

Just make sure you have all of your plane tickets with you when you travel. As it's likely your airline from UK will want to see your flight to KL before they let you board your flight, since you're traveling without a visa. Same thing for your flight back to Thailand from KL. They may want to see your flight back to UK before they'll let you board.
