Hello; new here and hopefully this is a simple question. US citizens, first visit to Thailand, arriving by air to BKK 1/11/2026 staying until 1/31/2026 flying to Luang Prabang from Chiang Mai and flying back to Chiang Mai on 2/5/2026 with plans to visit the southern area of Thailand for at least three weeks. Have not booked our departure flight out of BKK to Hanoi yet. On the government website, what would be the correct tourist visa to apply for? When we fly to Laos and back, does that "reset" the clock? Will we need to show our onward ticket to Hanoi, or somewhere else outside of Thailand? Thanks.

Hello all, are confirmed flight tickets required to apply? and do they ask for a return flight ticket as well? or would an Itinerary suffice?

Can I arrive in Vietnam and then depart after a few days to Singapore?

I know there is a low chance I’d be called in for an interview

But haven’t seen any posts yet saying Vietnam embassy had called them in?

Just wondering when I should book the onward flight for

Hello, will having my Thailand round trip air fare 70 days cause any issues?planning on visiting Vietnam maybe Cambodia a few weeks..thanks

Came to Jakarta the day prior to submitting - 10/10.

Had 6 months of financials - they actually gave me back 4 months said only needed 2, but more is always better in this case imo.

Soft power documents- in my case Muay Thai

Documentation of flights in and out of Indonesia and accommodation

5.6m idr

And copy of passport with all stamps and bio page

Application filled out, signed and photos stapled already

I arrived at 645, the first person arrived at 3am straight from the airport. I was in and out before 10am my time at the window was literal minutes I had everything ready to go; was told to come back Thursday 10/14 and given a slip.

Retrieved it today and I did not see ANY rejections out of the 30ish people I talked too, so all applied for various reasons from soft power to medical to digital nomad.

Hope this is helpful they will close in person the 21st so if are considering I would book a flight asap

Cheers.

Hi,

I applied for an e-Visa in Malysia.

Is it possible to fly to a different country(Indonesia) during Visa approval and then fly to Thailand from there?

I would probably fly from Indonesia-Malaysia-Thailand on the way back and reimmigrate in malaysia if necessary.

Could that lead to problems?

On the application they ask you how you plan to enter the country and where.

- Are you bound to coming in the same exact what way?

- What if I decide not to fly or arrive at a different city, am I obliged to somehow update my itinerary?

Hello everyone!

Now with the VISA exemption it seems like the process for a month stay in Thailand will be way easier.

My question is,

Do I still need to show a booked itinerary when I arrive to Thailand? I would much rather have the flexibility to move as I see fit once I’m there instead of having to pay a reservation from my country.

I do have my outgoing flight, so it would only be a matter of the accommodation

Hi everyone!

I am a Italian citizen and I will be flying from the Uk to Thailand.

I will join a organised tour which start from Bangkok, goes to Cambogia, Vietnam, Laos end re enter Thailand.

I will land in Bangkok where I’ll stay 4 days. Then I will cross the boarder to Cambogia by land.

I will re-cross the boarder from Laos into Thailand after 28 days out.

I know that as Italian citizen I am visa exempt for 30 days in Thailand but I also read that at the boarding they will ask for proof of flight. And my flight out from Thailand will be after 44 days.

The tour company says that I can show the voucher of the tour and I will be fine but I am worried that they will not accept it. Can someone advice me please ?
