So what acceptable as far as visa on arrival goes.

I just lost my tkt to Thailand because trying to get there with a visa meant I needed to buy 175 euro worth of risky visa submission and I could lose the money if not given a visa
Answer summary
The original post discusses frustrations related to applying for a Thai visa and clarifies the requirements for entry into Thailand. The user, holding a Greek passport, mentioned being advised that they would need a visa for future entries after multiple visa-exempt visits. Comments highlighted the different visa policies depending on nationality and recommended obtaining appropriate visa types (single versus multiple entry) based on travel plans. Various responses emphasized that certain nationalities can enter Thailand visa-free for specific periods and suggested checking local embassy guidelines for visa applications.

I’m a stroke survivor myself and struggle with alll kinds of paperwork. I definitely pay a lot more than doing everything myself and in the past managed tourist visas myself but now that it came to a longer term visa i paid an agent for assistance with papers. It’s definitely easier on a real computer instead of an iPhone. Especially the document uploads

Why would you risk losing your ticket, for the sake of €175. Unless you’re an undesirable or traveling for none legitimate reasons. I can’t see how you would not be granted a visa. Also, why wouldn’t you book all flight tickets with free refunds or free transfer, if there was a risk of not getting a visa. Doesn’t add up to me

I know. When I did China, I had to book not only flights but hotels, submit an itinerary and pay £200. It took a week to do the visa and I had no guarantee of getting the visa and no refund if I was refused. So I booked everything with free cancellation. I also would have no issue losing the £200. If they said no. It’s their country. Who am I to argue with them 😜

Imagine arriving on a 30-day visa exemption, clutching a sweaty passport while sipping a young coconut. Meanwhile, a tocay shrieks like a demon in a karaoke bar—seven croaks if you’re lucky, cursed if it’s five. Some say tocays guard coconut trees from illegal overstays, others claim they ride tuk-tuks after midnight straight into Chiang Mai moonbeams. Visas are transient. Coconuts eternal. Tuk-tuks indifferent. Tocays watching.

aah. What passport? Because heaps of countries get 60 days entry without needing a visa. Best thing to do is check with your local Embassy. I'm an Aussie so no need for a visa unless I'm looking for longer than 60 days, so I basically have no idea. Sorry

that was the most tiring thing ive ever done (iPhone application)… failed several days in a row.

But I was on vacation in Europe, so it’s difficult to think about looking for visa agents ..

I also forgot to mention that while in Thailand I did go to 2 visa agents and they said 29,000 baht retirement visa . The second one was also a crazy amount.

“I’m working part time and have no intention of retiring in Thailand”. Just stopping over at every oppurtunity as I’ve done for 13 years... I just travel a lot and used it as a stepping stone to European vacations.

Also Looking online at the “Thai e visa site”, I was under the impression tourist visa would have been adequate

Six months a year on visa exception, beyond that they will deny tourist visa at embassy or at entry to country. If you AU people want to visit more than that you need to pay some money for DTV or get married to Thailand and make the dowery bank deposit

There is no law or rule limiting visa exempt or tourist visa entries. You can do it until you can't. For some that's 6 or 7 entries in a short span, for others in 2 or 3. You are correct though, if youre going to come regularly, get the proper visa for it

being a Greek passport holder you do not get a visa on arrival, you get a visa exempt entry stamp. If that’s what you were told, purchase a tourist visa from your local Thai embassy/consulate.

The €175 is the application fee for the staff to process it win or lose.

I'll summarise for him

He has greek passport.

He's been coming to Thailand for 13 years on visa exempt ( no visa)

Over 40 visits.

Immigration told him to get a visa and not try to enter visa exempt again

He's worried about losing the visa application cost.

So.. advice would be, apply, carefully check it's been done correctly, wait for approval, have accomodation booked, cash, and onward ticket to leave within the permitted stay.
