Has anyone had the experience of being asked for a photo of every page of their passport... I'm applying at HCMC..they asked for this 3 days after I applied, just a little worried incase I did one too many border runs.thanks

On the one hand agents say border runs by land are unlimited since July 2024, on the other hand almost everyone else says border runs by plane are unlimited. Does anyone know the truth?

hey howz everyone doing, good i hope.

so, i’m just finishing up my first 60/30 and settling in.

i have to do my first border run .if i FLY from bangkok to siem reap and tour angkor wat again, will i be good coming in for my second 60/30??? i’m saving up for my retirement visa here and want to use my own money to avoid the agency fees. so, i know things change here, sometimes very quickly.

i’m more than a little worried as i brought a lot of luggage, way too much for a border run and too much to afford to lose. i have proof of 1 year contract and permanent government pension and over half the required savings but i’m still nervous. i keep hearing each immigration officer is different and could almost arbitrarily say no.

Hi. On my last visit to Thailand in June the immigration officer at Phuket airport asked me if this would be my last visit this year. I think because I had already entered Thailand twice this year. Will I be able to enter again this year or must I wait until it resets on January 1st ? T.I.A

Hi all, advice needed as there seems to be so many options.

We are a family of 4, I'm 40, wife is 36, 2 children (12 and 7)

I have a ltd company in uk where I am the only employee but can work anywhere with a wifi signal.

Kids are both home schooled, so education isn't an issue.

What visa would be best option.?

My 12 year old wants to do muay thai, so education visa worth it?

Dtv visa - will it cover my family?

I dont fancy wasting money on border runs every few months, as we plan on going koh samui.

Any advice would be massively appreciated.

We don't have the funds for the elite visa, so that's not an option.

In the past there was a different no of days allocated to a visa on arrival for an overland entry (15 days) to Thailand vs an international airport entry (30 days)

Does the 60 days visa on arrival now apply to all methods of entry to Thailand. If the 60 day visa on arrival applies to border runs, how many of these can you do before they shut the door on you? Has anyone tested this validity? If so what is the number reached?

Looking a bit forward of that, is there any idea yet, when and how, the mooted 'Schengen' type S-E Asian visa will come into being? Either in a total model or a phased in model?

Also when does the Thai government $13.00 tourist tax kick in and will it be collected?

Thanks in advance.

I would like to ask for everyone’s opinions on this. I know there will be many different answers,but I am interested in hearing about what everyone thinks about this.

Do you guys think it is a realistic and good decision to move to Thailand, I mean pack up all your things and go on a DTV visa? Or do you think that this visa is still too new and can’t be trusted this much. I mean at least to move to Thailand for the next 5 years, obviously will be doing the boarder bounce every 180 days. I am sure many are wondering about this. Has anyone made the big move to stay for 5 years coming in and out?

Hello, my year long education visa will run out at the end of November, can I leave the country and come back via land/Laos border and go to a back to a tourist stamp? I am unsure as I will have been in the country over the 365 days? Thank you

Anybody staying in Thailand long term just on flight visa run? Any issues?

Does anyone know if you can keep extending every 6 months for the 5 years or you can only do 6 months in a calendar year one time?? Would love some clarity on this issue ....
