Hi, very new and confused about the visas. I am British and have nearly used my first 90 day visa that I brought with me. Do I now fill in form TM 7 for an extension for another 30 days? Then I'm not leaving here until th 31st of March So after the 30 day extension am I the required to do a visa run and then apply for another 90 day visa? TIA
TLDR : Answer Summary
A British citizen with a Tourist TR visa, which allows a 60-day stay in Thailand, can apply for a 30-day extension at an immigration office. It is crucial to check the entry stamp in your passport as it defines the actual allowed duration of stay. If the current stay nears expiration, the individual must either extend or exit Thailand. After the extension, a visa run is needed to re-enter Thailand with a new 60-day visa exemption stamp, which can also be extended by another 30 days. Applying for a new visa prior to exiting is not necessary for UK passport holders, as they can enter under the visa exemption rule.
