What are the current entry stamp durations for Thailand as of June 2024?
We will put out a request as we have in the past for uncertainty:
If you or someone you know will be entering Thailand without a visa (visa exempt) tonight after midnight, please share your stamp so we can confirm the 30 vs 60 days.
You can post a photo of it in the comments, or send me a photo in a DM. We're just looking for verification if the changes will in fact be live on the 1st or not.
Thanks
*EDIT
We've received one report of a 30 day stamp after midnight. Awaiting a photo of the stamp and then we'll make a new post about it.
Please note that if we're able to confirm there is no 60 day stamp yet, do not expect anything to change until Tuesday as it's now a holiday weekend. But even then the PM's office said late June or early July, so we'll see.

When I arrive 5 June with a tourist visa allowing me an extra 30 days and the 60 days on entry is granted will that mean I can stay for 90 days total. This would save me applying for an extension of 30 days as I am planning to stay 90 days.

OP@Danny ******
No, you would still need to apply for an extension. They are both only 60 days, and you can get a 30 day extension but you have to apply for that.Danny *******

So you don't trust the "changes" in the evisa system? 😏😁
Brandon ************
OP@Stephan **********
there won't be any changes to the evisa system until they actually make changes to visas which isn't planned for months as far as I can tell. This is just a change to visa exempt. But some places say June 1st, some say late June or early July, and some rumors say September.

You do know I'm not the only moderator right? None of us know what is actually happening, including one the mods who is an immigration volunteer and talks directly to the higher ups at their office, who also have no idea what is going on right now.Stephan ***********
