With the new rules, how many times can I enter in Thailand with a visa exemption? I'll enter by plane and won't extend the exemption.

Hello, your help is much appreciated!

I entered Thailand 3 weeks ago with the plan of getting a visa on arrival, as I did last year. I was in Thailand for 6 months doing visa runs and never overstayed. Everything was in rule. Long story short, they asked me to buy a ticket to leave Thailand and gave me only 45 days instead of the usual 60 days.

I would like to apply for a DTV visa, but at the moment, I don’t have the required funds in my bank account for at least 3 months.

I am going to India for 3 weeks, and my question is: Do you think I can apply for a METV to come back to Thailand, and meanwhile get my papers sorted, to then apply for a proper DTV?

Thoughts?

sorry if asked already

I applied 18 june for the DTV , passed al documents ; and since 21 june i wait for the approval

I am planning to leave 17th July from Cambodia to Thailand so I hope to have the visa in due time, however if that would not be the case and the visa would be granted after 17th july , can i then simply got to thailand 60 days with EU pasport, return september to cambodia and then use the DTV

in other words, if they grant the visa how many days you have before entering Thailand ??

This is probably not the right place to ask but bear with me.

I’m here on a DTV but my boyfriend is here on visa exempt status. He has already flown in twice this year to Thailand but not stayed the full 60 days. Due to some family stuff he is having to fly out again for a week and come back.

Could someone please enlighten how many times a year he can come here on visa exempt status. He wanted to apply for DTV but he doesn’t have the full 500K yet.

Nationality: Central European.

Thanks for any advice whatsoever. Khap khun khaaaa

Hi, I’m just wondering if anyone has anyone come across this before and is there a way around it?

I’ve got a return flight booked with Etihad to Phuket from the Uk for 81 days. I know the visa is 60 days on arrival but I was going to do a visa extension whilst there. To cover me for the 81 days.

I’ve gone to check in online with Etihad and they want visa information. Which I don’t have.

Any help would be greatly appreciated. We fly tomorrow evening.

What’s the best thing to do now?

Cheers ✈️

Hello, friends and fellow travellers! Does anyone happen to know how long after your DTV has been approved we’re allowed to enter Thailand using it? Thank you! ขอบคุณครับ 😊

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.
