Can someone tell me I’ve had 30 day extension and I will leave Thailand to do a visa run by land or by air ? And can this be done more than 1 time ?

Hi everyone! I’m a bit confused about the new visa-exempt rules (60 days + 30-day extension), so I’d really appreciate your help.

I’m planning to stay in Thailand for about 90–97 days total, but during this period I will need to leave the country for a few days for international sports events.

My questions are:

1️⃣ If I leave Thailand before completing the first 60 days, and then come back, can I still apply for the +30-day extension later?

Or will immigration only give me the 7-day grace period after re-entry?

2️⃣ If I re-enter during the same 90–97-day overall window, does my time outside Thailand count toward the 90 days, or does the clock only count the days spent inside Thailand?

3️⃣ Basically:

– Can I leave once or twice within the 90–97-day allowance and still use the full 60+30 days?

– Or does leaving “interrupt” or reduce the extension?

I’ve watched several update videos, but the explanations weren’t fully clear on how exits and re-entries affect the new 60+30 system, so any firsthand experience or clarification would help a lot!

Thank you so much in advance! 🙏✨

Re the latest rule change: UK passport holder : still 60 days on entry with option to extend to 90 ? When can you extend it to 90 ….? Thanks

We have just obtained the 30 day extension from the 60 day visa exemption in Hua Hin Immigration (Blúport office). Photo is longer required.

Face snapshot is taken directly at immigration counter.

I'm sure this question has been asked many times, Sorry, How soon on arrival by Visa exemption 60 days can go to immigration to extend another 30 days. As l will be travelling around Thailand but the first 3 weeks staying in Chiang Mai. Thank you.

Hi if you travel to Thailand without a visa, on the 60-day European (visa) on arrival, is it possible to extend that in any way, without leaving the country? Maybe a 30-day extension at the visa office? thanks

As an Australian Citizen I receive 60 days visa free on arrival at BKK. I can then extend for 30 days at Immigration. If I then depart BKK and fly return to Vientiane, Laos VTE OR Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia KUL for a few days.... can I then get another 60 days visa free on arrival back in BKK? Also, can I then apply at immigration for a 30 day extension at Immigration? The total period is approximately six months with a few days exit in the middle.

Thank you in advance for any helpful replies.

Hello to everyone, today I was looking for information about the extension of visa for 30 days ( tourist) in Nonthaburi. On the website of the immigration office of Nonthaburi I found a link where one can apply for the extension online and then after payment get an appointment for the stamp of the extension in passport. It was Interesting that you could give your days of extension manually in the adequate field.

Does anyone have any experience with getting another 60 days extension or no matter what you write there you will get only 30 days? I wrote 60 days and this was not rejected on the site.

Thank you for your information in advance.

Please write only something

if you have exact information. 🙏😊🙏

Hi all, so here's my situation...on September 14, which is a Sunday, my visa runs out. If I could get it extended on that day, all would be fine for my exit from Thailand on October 12. However, because it is a Sunday, I either have to get it extended on the Friday, and then be a day or 2 late when leaving the country or be 1 day late for the extension. My thoughts are it would be best to be a day late asking for an extension but would like to know what would happen either way as I don't want it marked on my passport if avoidable.

Are there any requirements for a 30 day extension on a 60 day free entry stamp ?
