Hello, We would like to stay in Thailand for 3 months. Our initial visa free entry will be for 60 days. Q: Is it better to take a trip to Malaysia (Penang) or some other country and re-enter or apply/get extension in Hua Hin ? Also what documents are needed to get an extension of stay?
Any latest news regarding 60-day visa exemption being cut off?
It's been about 3 weeks since i have not seen nor read anything new about the scheme to revert back 60 days to 30 days (which is quite a good news for me, less anxiety). Like literally no coverage about it at all since the Iran vs US/Israel broke out. What are the chances Thailand REALLY slash off the 60 days visa exemption before end of this year? I myself come from Visa Exempted country, already booked my plane for early December 2026 and fly out of Thailand in 6 weeks later. I really dont wanna bother myself to apply for eVisa Tourist if not necessary at all.
I’m sorry if this question has been asked many times….. I can’t find my answer. Apologies.
I fly back to Bangkok tomorrow 24th. Uk citizen my 60 day visa free runs out 8th of February. Could some one help and tell me where name of building, location I have to go to to get 30 day extension.
I believe I need….. money, yes of course
Pass port photos.
Complete a form whilst I’m there.
Proof of residence. Will my booking.com confirmation be enough. I’m staying in regular modest hotels I tend to stay a week? Will a booking.com booking form say for seven days be ok?
Many many thanks for any help.
Thanks and regards to all.
PS
Correction. Poor choice of words moreover poor punctuation in the above. Apologies. I’m already in Thailand. As it happens in airport as I type flying to Bangkok. I’m here VISA FREE 60 days, i want to extend my stay by thirty days. Apologies for any confusion I may have caused, and any waste of time for people who have already been kind enough to help.
I’m sure this question has been asked before. My apologies, techy stuff not my skill set, unable to find answer.
I have been to Thailand 3-4 times since August 24. Arrived visa free, always departed within the allowed time frame.
I arrived this current time on 9th December (UK citizen) 60 day visa free. I would like to stay an extra 30 days. First time not wanted any additional time on previous entries.
Where? How do I go. I’ll be in Bangkok (meanwhile travelling around) on 26th-27th February.
The location right building (please) would be great. Go to right place first time.
Hours and days of business.
What documents do I take? Passport, money, photos, proof of accomodation I believe. Is a copy of my booking.com booking sufficient proof for evidence of where I’m staying.
Cost?
If and I hope I do, get all the above correct, is my additional 30 days pretty much automatic? Once again I’ve never applied for any kind of extension in the past. I have never wish to manipulate, fiddle the visa system. Jist this one time, not a regular thing that I believe Thai authorities are looking more deeply at.
Apologies for boring questions. Any and all help mightily appreciated.
I am in Thailand on a 60 day visa exemption, but I'd like to extend it to 90 days.
I'd rather do things early than late, so I was planning to go within the week. However, ChatGPT (which is not always reliable) says to wait a bit as Bangkok immigration is very strict.
Is this true? Should I wait till January to extend, or just do it now? I thought it would be best to ask real people.
Also, it has to be done in person, right? I haven't found an online option.
How long do we need to be away (third country, not “home”) between 60-day exemptions?
I am a solo mom with two kids, all American passports on a 60 day exemption, which is up on the 26th of Dec. I intend to get a DTV as a digital nomad, but wanted to see how it is before going through the whole process, as this is our first time in Thailand.
My rough plan is to be in Taipei for Feb/ March, and apply for Thai DTV from there. In the meanwhile, we’ll be going to Malaysia over winter break and planning to return Jan 1. We won’t be there long enough to wait for the DTV to go through, so we’d be returning for another exemption. Is 8 days long enough they would be okay with another exemption? Or would they be okay with it because it would be only our second entry?
Alternately we could stay in Thailand over break and apply for an extension but I don’t know how likely it could be refused, or if the 30 days starts the day we apply, or if it gets added to our original date.
Sorry, if this has been asked 100 times, I even tried the embassy, but I get an error message. With 60 day visa exempt, can I go and come back once within the 60 days? This would NOT be a 'visa run', obvioudly, but just a flight to Vietnam for 2 days, in order not to lose my 'Flying Blue' frequent flyer miles by taking a short flight on a partner airline, and crediting the miles to 'Flying Blue'. Just one clear answer is all I need, thanks in advance.
I intend visiting Thailand in January using Visa Exempt 60 day entry. I then intend visiting Laos also in January, when re-entering Thailand would I still have the days left of the original entry unused?
