TLDR : Answer Summary
There is currently no confirmed update regarding the transition of Thailand's visa on entry from 30 days to 60 days. Comments indicate speculation suggests changes may occur by July, but there is uncertainty around this date. No official announcement has been made, and many users recommend following reliable news sources for updates rather than relying on gossip or unverified information.

The latest I heard and read about it is that there Will be a decision end of July, they are a little concerned about all the people who works in the emigration offices.

This year I had to extend my visa from 60 to 90 days and it took all day at the emigration office we all had to wait, never again now I Will have the visa before I leave.

My crystal Ball says end of July

it’s not a visa on entry. It is a ‘visa-free’ entry allowing you to stay vida free for a defined period of time.

Fugazi announcement designed to take your focus off the thai security bar ferang unconscious beat down vdos. How easily foreigners are bought to the idea of extra stay for your hard earned buck forgetting the beating these 🤡s can do to you as & when that time comes ... no one is safe from this . It could be you 👉 next time?

They are still doing 30 on border run

Having stayed here thru covid they start telling you no no no and at the beginning of the month we’d be ok again with our visas as they were extended.

The process is like a circus 🤡. But eventually they change it . So 3 months after they announce stuff it may happen

My sister said her boyfriend said his brother had read (on Facebook) that his uncle had seen that his wife's workmate said that a Thai friend had heard vai someone at immigration that told a bar girl that told her "boyfriend" that it would start at some point.

Other than rhat, no.

Bart **************
@Andrew **********

Steven **********
@Andrew **********
need to be passed and approved by the government first this why not been approved
Andrew ***********
@Steven *********

@Andrew **********
Yep, 1st July (although July of what year is still uncertain)
Stevan ***********
July

As soon as any real information is available you can guarantee that it’ll be blasted all over the inter web. This site and other visa forums. No one knows any details yet. Even immigration officials don’t know specifics as yet.

My guess would be July 1st, but it’s just a guess. I could be out by 2 days or 180…..

@Stuart ********
I’m holding you to that , Roger ChiangMai

Stuart *********
There is no information as of yet.
Miguel *************
@Stuart ********
if you were to speculate, do you think it’s likely or unlikely it’s approved by the end of July? Thank you.
