Does anyone know if I can extend my Thai visa exemption (60 days) in the Trang immigration office? I don't really want to go up to BKK. If I can, what do I need for this, and how far in advance can I extend it? thanks

Our departure date is early January 2025. A couple of questions. I am Canadian and my wife is Indonesian. I believe we are both Visa exempt for Thailand. Is this correct? Do they still give immigration and customs documents on the plane prior to landing at Suvarnabhumi? The reason I ask is because Laos has visa on arrival for me, she is exempt. And for Cambodia I have to do e-visa in advance and arrival card 7 days prior to arrival. These are our next destination after 10 days in Thailand. Just making sure I can arrive in Bangkok and just do it the old fashioned way, filling out documents on the plane. No e-visa required in advance? Also, we have to re-enter Thailand a second time for four days. No problem with one re-entry?

I am Canadian. Is it even worth getting a METV now that there is the 60 day Visa Exemption ?

Hello.

Applied for NON O (kids) from London last Tuesday. Normally it's very quick but this time I'm still waiting. I fly on Sunday.

Any ideas if I arrive in Thai on a visa exemption while waiting for my NON O to be approved then exit and re-enter on NON O once approved will be ok? Asking as though I applied in London approval might not get done until I'm in Thai... Thanks

Looking for some clarity on the 60 day rule on a VE flying from the UK, I read somewhere that you can now only get 2 of these per Calendar Year, whereby with the previous 30 Day VE, there was no real limit when flying in, though liable for being questioned and possible refused entry. Can someone please clarify what the rules are and is my interpretation right? TIA

Hi all. I have a question regarding the Thai visa exemption. Is it single entry? Specifically, I entered Thailand on 1st April and was granted the 30 day visa exemption. Now I am in Laos for two weeks and would like to re-enter Thailand before the visa exemption expires. Would I be issued with a new visa exemption for 30 days (this is what I would prefer) or would I have to re-enter on the previous one which will have just one week left?

Thanks 🙏

Hi, I asked similar question before so sorry for asking again but just wanted some advice. I have an Indian passport. I was planning to do a visa run at the end of my 30 day exemption+30 day extension through the Nong Khai border but recently came across something called as a border bounce but not sure what are the advantages/disadvantages. Considering that I have already flown to Thailand multiple times in the last year(spent 4.5 months cumulatively last year), what would be the best choice for me? I am not interested in a visa agency because they are too expensive and it sounds rather uncomfortable being crammed in a van for 10 hours+.

1 - Go to Laos for an hour or so and come back to Thailand(Nong khai border) under the 30 day visa exemption.

2 - Spend a night in Laos and come back to Thailand(nong khai border) under the 30 day visa exemption.

3 - Go to the Thai embassy in Laos and get a 60 day tourist visa and come back through the nong khai border. This would mean that I would need to spend atleast 2-3 days in Laos waiting for this visa. I have booked an appointment already just to be safe.
