Hi all, I'm planning to do 2 trips to Thailand later this year being November to December for 6 weeks and then return in early January till early April. I have asked the UK Thailand embassy and they have told me to get a METV - Multi Entry Tourist Visa and the guidance note states the following shuttle h I don't understand. Can any body help me as I'm unsure when to complete the application form and what dates I should put on it..

The validity of the METV is 6 months from the issue which means you must enter before the ‘Enter Before’ date shown. The entry before the date is important because the last possible entrance for 60 days has to be used when entering the day before the end before the date. Two of the three 60 day exit stamps could possibly be extended for 30 days at a Thai immigration office although your last entry must be no later than the ‘Enter Before’ date.

Cheers in advance

If I arrive in Thailand without visa can visa agency help me with the retirement visa or must I have a tourist visa when I arrive

I got pulled up at immigration and was told I need a visa after coming here for 13 years staying for visa entry

I would like to go to Thailand next year for 2 or 3 times sixty days is this possible and what visa should I apply for this ? thank you for your answers

Anyone knows what the 60 means please

What, if you have a DTV but just want to enter Thailand for a two week vacation on this occasion, NOT for a Muay Thai course or a cooking class, but just to relax. Do you have to ask for the visa exempt stamp or enter on DTV regardless?

Hello, based on the visa exempt period of 60 days I purchased our tickets to BKK on 17.12.25 return back to France on the 5.4.26. I reserved a house in Hua Hin for 6 weeks in the beginning and another for 6 weeks at the end in Koh Samui. In between we planned to travel Vietnam. Now I heard that the visa exempt will go back to a 30 day period, has anyone more info about this and what would you suggest for me to do??? It seems several extensions in a year is not advised??? Thank you so much for your advice!

Quick question for those that have been to thailand/phuket recently.

Are they still giving the 60 day visa exemption? I heard they wanted to cut it back to 30 days.

Got my flight soon I'm wondering if I should buy flight for the 30 day limit just in case.

Thanks

Hello to everyone

Arriving in BKK Immigration still exist the 60 days exemption or reduced??

Hi, I'm a French citizen, I am currently in Thailand with an EDucation visa which ends at the ends of the month, when I'll go back to France for a month.

I already have my plane ticket back to Thailand for July, and I was thinking to apply for a Tourist visa multiple entry (METV I think in English). It seems that the requirements are reasonable and I match all of them. Do they ask for a reason of stay in Thailand, or is tourism already a sufficient reason ?

From what I understood, it would allow me to stay in Thailand for 6 months, every time for 60 days. Which would allow me to stay for 9 months total if I manage well.

Can I extend every time for 30 days more without problem ? As long as my visa is valid, during those 6 months, there is no issue when entering back to Thailand ?

Thank you very much for your kind answers and advices.
