Hi. I visited Thailand several times over the past 12 months either overland or by air. Each arrival was visa exempt with an Australian passport.

My last arrival was in June this year through Suvanabhumi Airport. On this occasion I was taken aside by an immigration supervisor and I was told I was entering Thailand too frequently on visa exempt stamps and that I should apply for a eVisa instead.

Now I would like to make a short visit on short notice.

The eVisa seems to require 10 days to process and I have to purchase a ticket prior to applying.

Would it be a mistake to ignore the warning I received on my last arrival and just show up and hope for a trouble free visa exempt stamp on arrival. Or would you advise applying for an eVisa?

Thank you for your advice.

Hi, I have read back through various posts and am across the 60 day visa exemption and possible 30 day extension ( we are Australian and British Passport holders ), but for various reasons, we are going to stay 97 days. Happy to do a trip to Malaysia by air for a few days, but I cannot see any comment as to whether a second visa exemption entry would be possible, or if there is a restriction as to the number of times this is allowed. Appreciate any relevant advice.

Seeking advice for my Son who is currently stopped at immigration inside the Chiang Mai airport after a border run.

Immigration said he’s come and gone to many times and they won’t allow him back in to get his belongings from Lanna Muay Thai, where he’s been training. They made him buy a flight back to Malaysia.

How do I get my son back to Chiang Mai, Thailand? He has to get his stuff and use his return flight home.

Any advice helps.

Hy guys if you are fr9m South Africa and want to do a DTV visa in Jakarta, Indonesia. You will waste you money and time. Me and my wife just came back from the Royal Thai Embassy. They said because we have South African Passports we need to stay in Jakarta for 6 weeks while they keep our passports then only we can apply here for the DTV visa. We are heading back to Bangkok tomorrow.

Need to do my first ever border-run at the end of the month.

Because of my location (Kanchanaburi) being about as far from a suitable border as can be, am considering using an agent, instead of undertaking the trip myself. If that's possible.

Do agents perform that for people?

If so, what's the likely cost and procedure?

How do I find a trustworthy agent?

Anything else I should be aware of?

Experienced help and advice would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance.
