Did I miss some news about visa exempt arrivals? A friend arrived to Thailand from the US in late December and was stamped in for 90 days. I thought you only received 60 days now and could go to immigration to extend it another 30 days.

As I need to prepare ahead, what are the best options for flights out of Bangkok for the 180 days in/out strategy? Kuala Lumpur? Ho chi Minh?

Hi, what would you guys say is the best visa to stay for around 6 months? Education or tourist visa with extensions etc? What would be the cost? Thank you to any experts who can give some info.

Hello, I’m currently in Thailand.

I stayed 3 weeks in April, 2 months in October- November and I did another visa exemption to stay until January 10th. So a total of 91 days this calendar year.

I’m planning on coming back end of February (via land border after Laos) with a tourist visa.

Is there a possibility I get denied entry?

Visa extension.

Hi everyone, I’ve been looking into the requirements for extending the VoA for 30 days (60 plus 30). However I’m a little stuck on the TM30. I’m travelling on a boat so I don’t have an address to register. Does anyone have experience of that? Thanks 🙏

If in fact many people are being denied entry to Thailand visa exempt as has been reported, they must be denied upon their second visa exempt entry attempt, given the start date of the 60 day change was 15 July 24. I guess it is then safe to say, after the first 60 day visa exempt entry with 30 day extension, there is no guarantee of being allowed in visa exempt a second time.

What is the limit for TOTAL days as a tourist in a year?

Eg: I travel in/out of Thailand often, within the same tourist visa expiration date-

Is there a limit to the total number of days or visas, I’m allowed in the country as a tourist?

Thank you!

I spend a lot of time in Thailand and I have done border runs travelling as a tourist visa but if I flew out of the country, am I allowed to come back the same day or do I have to stay for 24 hours before I come back?

This is an excellent video answering a lot of DTV questions. Very interesting and useful info. More people need to see this video so with the creator's permission I'm giving the link.

I want to add that this is a standard rule in other countries, which is why I wonder if Thailand also has this.

What is the general rule regarding staying in Thailand under visa exemptions? I was recently denied entry after spending a total of around 150 days in Thailand over the past few months using visa exemptions.

My question is: does this reset when the new calendar year begins, or will immigration still see my previous stays in their system and deny me entry unless I obtain a proper visa?

Thanks!
