My first post, i fly into Thailand 2-3 times a year, Always stay 2-3 weeks, Always on the 30 days visa exempt, never had a problem, now i have booked 3 trips next year January, June, August again planning on using the 30 day visa exempt, i have never extended a visa exempt. Do you think immigration will give me any problems, many thanks.
Answer summary
The user inquired about potential immigration issues when using the 30-day visa exemption for multiple trips to Thailand within the same year. They have successfully used this exemption for previous visits without problems. Comments suggest that the user can extend their stay by applying for an additional 30 days at immigration, which may alleviate concerns about overstaying.

@Steve *****
. Your question alluded you were the way you worded it.

I can't see any reason why you'd have trouble. Have you in the past?

First 2 are 6 months apart so it's clear you arent using them to stay here long term. And if you have return tickets, proof of funds and accommodation booked(they have the right to ask you for evidence of this ) then I see no reason for them to give you trouble. Follow the rules as you already have and you should be fine.
