Hey Guys, thank you for joining this group. I have a question about the Visa on Arrival rules.
What will happen, if I will go in two days from Germany to Thailand and ask again for Visa on arrival? I already stayed in Thailand for 140 days in the last six months. And 59 days in the year 2023.
Is it:
90 days in 180 days, counting backwards from the next date I will arrive in Thailand / BKK?
I can stay 180 days every year in Thailand with visa on Arrival and border runs.
I am allowed to enter Thailand 6 times a year by Airplane to get visa for 30 days?
I already stayed in Thailand since last November with Visa on Arrival (45 days). I went to Cambodia by Airplane and back. And in February to Malaysia with Bus / train and back. I got Problems with this and had to pay some extra money.
What's your experience? Thank you very much for any recommendations.
TLDR : Answer Summary
The user questions the implications of their travel history regarding Visa on Arrival (VoA) in Thailand, specifically after spending significant time in the country. Comments clarify that Germans do not have a VoA option but rather can enter under a visa exemption for 30 days. They also emphasize that extended stays can raise scrutiny from immigration officers, especially given the user's extensive time in Thailand over the past six months. Recommendations include having proof of onward travel and sufficient funds on arrival.
