What are the current rules for the Thai visa exempt entry stamp?

Well this topic sure went off the proverbial rails pretty quickly 😛

I would say that the O/P now has a good idea that the visa exempt entry program is for 60 days and they can get one 30 day extension on that stamp after they're here at the immigration office for 1900baht

Thanx one and all for the comments,

We are done 😛

There’s a free 60 day visa exemption. That you can pay to extend for 30 days. But an actual tourist visa costs money

There is no such thing as a free tourist visa!

Only Argentina, Brazil, Chile, Peru and South Korea get 90 day visa exempt stamps.

No went from 30 to 60

Any more news on the digital arrival card that’s supposed to be coming in to force in May please ?

Nope 60 days which you can extend for another 30 days for 1900 baht at an immigration office and some other paper work which varies from office to office to beat check with the office you plan to use beforehand

read again, it's exemption visa, depending of your passport origin, and it's either 30 or 60 days.

60 can extend for another 30 days in country

Nope visa exempt is 60 days which you can extend for a further 30 days

60 on arrival for select countries and extend 30 days at immigration

There is no "free tourist visa" 😮

You BUY a tourist visa from a thai consulate before you come here

I think what you're talking about is the free "visa exempt" entry stamp. That's where you can show up here without having bought a visa beforehand and get stamped in free

Visa exempt entry used to be for 30 days and you could extend that one time for 30 more days at the immigration office for 1900baht.

BUT

On July 15th 2024 it went to 60 days free entry (visa exempt) and you can still extend that one time for 30 more days at the immigration office for 1900baht <-giving you a total time in country of 90 days.

These are the 90+ countries that can show up here and get in free for 60 days
