Hello, I’ve booked my flight for May and plan to stay for 55 days under the visa exemption scheme. I was wondering if it would be advisable to apply for a SETV in advance, in case the visa exemption period is reduced to 30 days.

I understand that I’m required to have an onward flight within the permitted stay, so I’m a bit concerned about the possibility of entry rules changing before my departure.

Thank you in advance for your help.

Ok so has the 90 days been changed now ?The standard 60 days with a 30 day extension??? Is this still in place for uk visitors ?

Seeking a little help- I’ve attempted to google the answer to my question but no luck.

I am trying to use the E-extension system to apply for 30 day extension on my visa exemption. I am stuck at not sure what the visa subcategory type is.

I'm going for my over 50 visa in April when I hit the big age and am using Thai visa (Grace) for this.

In mean time, I need to extend my visa exempt by 30 days to March after which I'm going out of country for a little bit.

What do I need at the Surin immigration office? I thought I had it worked out but then read a few other posts and got confused again.

I am about to stay at a friend's so I will need them to do a tm30?

Then I just take passport down and ask to renew and pay fee?

Came in on 60 day visa, thinking about going to immigration to get 30 day extension. Ive 10 days left on my 60 days. Will a 30 extension start from after my 60 days or will it start from when I go to immigration.?

My METV will expire Jan. 19. On what date is best to get a 30 day extension? I am on my first 60 day entry as of right now.

Hi all - with everything changing so rapidly I'm just hoping to get some clarity on a few things regarding 30 day extension:

I'm (UK passport) currently in Bangkok with my partner (Taiwan passport). We both have 60 day visa exempt stamps that run out 1st January. I have been in Thailand twice in 2025, once for two days in January and once for a week in April. She has only been here once for a week in April. All were visa exempt visits. We have never extended a stay or had a long stay here. However a little concerned about my previous two short visa exempt entries.

We want to extend our trip for 30 days to the end of January and have a couple of questions:

1-Is there anything other than passport + photocopy, TM30 and passport photos that we need to bring? Am I missing anything?

2 - For Bangkok is it still the Chaeng Watthana and can we still expect to be there all day? The last time I did a visa extension was before covid and I remember the queues being absurd.

Thanks in advance for your help.

How early into a 60 day visa exempt stamp can I apply for a 30 day extension?

Thanks.

Hello. I am a british passport holder and arrived in Thailand, I used my 60 days visa exempt then did my 30 days extension. Went to Vietnam for 1 ½ months then onto the Philippines for 2 ½ months. I plan to return to Thailand before I travel home before new year. Will I have a problem with immigration? Thanks

I’m looking for advice if anyone who has done a DTV recently.

Seems to many people offering advice and services. Has anyone got any personal experience with a company that can make the process easy for me as I only have till the 24 December until I need to get my 30 day extension.

And experiences you can share would be very much appreciated 🙏
