I will be visiting Thailand wjth my partner in February.
I am travelling after my wedding in india (Indian National and Indian passport holder but i live in the UK). I will be visiting Thailand for 10 days, and will apply for the standard Thailand tourist visa.
We will be going to koh samui first and then krabi.
My question is, the fligjt I’m looking to book to Koh Samui has a self transfer at Bangkok airport as my bags won’t be checked through to the Bangkok to koh samui flight. Hence I will need to collect my bags, leave Bangkok airport and re-enter the airport and go through the whole immigration process to board the koh samui fligjt.
My question is, would I need a separate transit visa for this self transfer at Bangkok, or would the tourist visa I’m already getting for this trip allow me to go through immigration again? I was thinking the latter since it’s domestic travel within Thailand, but I’m not sure.
