I have a 6 month multi entry visa which expires in July. The last stamp when I came in expires next week. To extend that stamp do I have to go out and back in again, or can I go to an immigration office and pay for? Not sure if I get 30 or 60 days as I believe it is changing?

We're a family of four, two kids aged one and five. We want an extended period here in Thailand before our oldest starts school in August 2026. Initially our holiday was 59 days with flight booked home. We'll have been here sixty days when we fly to Vietnam instead, where our plan is to apply for a six month multiple entry visa. We're more than happy to do some travel in other nearby countries during this six months to meet requirements. This should get us to July after which we plan to go home and not return to Thailand for several years.

Is this line of thinking reasonable and legal?

Anyone understand the new visa rules, Thailand from UK

I came Feb 20th for 17 days,

Then June 12th for 28 days

Then October 7th for 21 days

I'm booked to come again January 27th for 35 days , will I have problem with Immigration?

Thank you in advance

Ok I’m coming to Bangkok on the 22nd or so of October for 3+ weeks, have a plan of sorts - I’m coming on the standard tourist visa as I plan to leave on the 16th of November. I want to find a decent 1bed 1 bath place near 24 if possible. I don’t work, I’m a day trader/swing trader so I make fast cash and then chill. Is the ability to show the Thai visa agency’s say an $80k USD realized gain in my account a good enough piece to get either a retirement visa (50 in December) or a remote worker visa? If not, if my plan is to come for a few weeks then back to US for a month or two then another month in Bangkok and so on doable 100% on the free tourist entry each time?

Have to do it like this till my son is 18 and graduated since he wants to remain in the US and I have a desire to not be in the US anymore 😆

TIA

I'm wanting to stay 90 days. My understanding is I won't need a visa. After 60 days I can extend for 39 days. Is my understanding correct ?

Do you have to redo a tourist visa here again if you leave out the country to visit somewhere else for 4 days ? Or does it remain within the same date you have to stay until ?

Can I still get my visa at airport like before?

Hi, I want to travel to Japan but need a visa for it. According to Japan Embassy's website, I need to show proof of long term residency in Thailand and a tourist visa will not suffice. Any idea if they would accept DTV? My nationality is Indian if it helps.

Good news for DTV holders! (maybe I am late 😅)

Despite there is a conflict taxation case for DTV holders,

DTV holders still can claim VAT refund within 60 days.

I did redeem VAT refund in February when I flew to Japan from Suvarnabhumi International Airport. (addition - I got Japan Visit Visa with the use of DTV)

Below is the proof to witness.

Brazilian passport holder entered 90 days Bi agreement. can they extend?
