What are the current entry options for traveling to Thailand for 30 days?
Hi guys, I’m travelling on Oct 28th returning home to the UK Dec16th, I’m a bit confused with this new visa that’s been cut to 30 days, I was going to travel under the visa waiver for 30 days then get an extension of 30 days while in Krabi, is this correct? Thanks a lot😁
Answer summary
The user is traveling to Thailand and is confused about the 30-day visa exemption rule. Community members clarify that the visa exemption (often referred to as a visa waiver) is limited to 30 days, with the option for a 30-day extension available at immigration offices. They recommend applying for a 60-day tourist visa online for a more hassle-free experience before traveling.

Better 60 day visa, or you need to have a onward ticket on 30 days

No visa has been cut to 30 days, visa exempt entries (what you're calling visa waiver) have been cut to 30 days and you can get one 30 day extension at the immigration office that serves your location in Thailand. It would be much less hassle just to apply for a 60 day tourist visa before you travel though
