Thailand Visa METV Visa Options for Expats Tourist Visa Visa Exemption Visa Regulations Immigration in Thailand

ORIGINAL POSTER

So I’ve been traveling SE Asia with Thailand as home base. I’ve been running on a 6 month METV and just gotten stamped back in last week. Since the visa is expiring, this got me another 60 day stamp.

I’m leaving for India on Wednesday with a two month tourist visa there (which is hardly enough time from what I understand), by which time my 60 days will have expired. 

I have not done flown back into country or used my visa exemption since my initial arrival last fall. Just returned once via Cambodia.

What kind of visa can I plan for/acquire on my return? Can I get a visa in India? The longer the better.

Thanks much 🙏🏼
