Will I face issues with immigration in Thailand after multiple short stays in one year?

Hey everyone 👋 I need a bit of advice.

So far this year I’ve entered Thailand twice:

• First time in May for 7 days

• Second time in August for 10 days

Now I’m planning my third trip in October (6th–16th, 10 days).

With my nationality I get a 60-day visa exemption, but in reality I’ve only stayed 7 days the first time and 10 days the second time – way shorter than the 60 days allowed. For this upcoming trip I’ll also have everything ready: confirmed return flights, hotel bookings for the whole stay, and more than enough cash to show if needed.

Since this will be my 3rd entry in the same year, do you think immigration will give me any issues? All my trips are just short holidays.

Has anyone had a similar experience? Just want to be prepared and avoid any problems at the airport 😅

TLDR : Answer Summary
The poster inquired about the possibility of facing immigration issues due to making three short trips to Thailand within the same year, despite being eligible for a 60-day visa exemption. Community responses reassured the poster that as long as they adhere to short stays and have sufficient documentation, they should not encounter any problems with immigration during their third entry.

You should be fine .

I come every 10 weeks and stay 3 weeks throughout the year and 6 weeks at Xmas time. Being doing this since 2021

You really should have no issues. You have short stays and adequate time between visits. There is nothing at all about your pattern of visits to indicate you live in Thailand or are “gaming the system.”

No problem, you're a tourist and Thailand wants more tourists.

No. No issues. Youre only staying for short periods and not doing border runs. I've been 4 times this year about 15 days every 10 weeks.

Non aucun problème, la limite est de 180 jours max par an ....
