Hi everyone,

I know this has probably been asked in different variations, but I just wanted to clarify my personal situation and get some advice.

I arrived in Thailand on a UK tourist visa for 2 months, which I extended to 3 months. I then did a border run, allowing me an additional 2 months plus another extension. I understand that eyebrows may be raised after around 6 months. I am currently in the process of getting married to my Thai girlfriend, but this will overlap with my current stay, so I'll need to do another border run to give me the breathing space to finalize everything.

I'm aware there is no longer a 2-per-year land border limit, and each entry is the discretion of immigration. Will they feel I am abusing tourist entries if I show evidence of this marriage process im going through, or should I be fine since they can see (if I provide evidence) that I'm only doing this run to arrange the relevant long-term visa?

I will also be using a reputable border run service should that make any difference.

Thanks,

Hi everyone!

I hold a US passport.

I currently have a multiple entry tourist visa. When this expires, am I able to apply for another one? If so how long do I have to wait? Thanks to everyone for all this help and information in this group.

Tourist Visa Extension Report. Jomtien Immigration. Arrived at 8.30 am and I was out at 9am. It took 30 minutes and it wasn't busy.

Needed passport photo, TM7 form filled out, TM30 docket plus photo copy of it, passport, passport bio page copy, visa copy and entry stamp copy.

I didn't really know where to go but went to the building on the right and was directly pointed to the new middle building where they did document checking. Passed that and was directed to main building counter one, handed over passport and papers and the 1900 baht and was told to take a seat and wait until processed. Took about 25 minutes guy calls my number and it was all done. Cost 1900 baht. You can do it yourself, all good.

Hi all. I’m Australian is there any problem extending my tourist visa to 60 or 90 days

Hello all,

I stayed with with my Tourist Visa Multiple Entry in Thailand from mid January 2024 until now (about 6 months).

During this stay, I traveled two times out of Thailand for a few days each time to extend my visa.

In summary I entered Thailand 3 times this year via airport and using always the same METV! (No visa runs or visa exemptions so far)

I plan now to leave Thailand for 3 month and would like to re-enter after probably with the new visa exemption of 60 days in November 2024.

My question is now, based on your knowledge and experience if that could be a problem at immigration since I already stayed about 180 days this year.

For sure I will have the three proofs with me than.

Looking forward your feedback and recommendations, thanks!

Hello, I am going to leave Thailand and re-enter by land.

I have already done it twice this year, with visa exemption. This time I return with a real tourist visa made at the Thai consulate in Kuala Lumpur.

I know that we have the right to do it twice maximum, by land, with visa exemption but does this apply with a real tourist visa? Would I have any problems re-entering Thailand?

Preparing to go to the Thai Embassy here in Hanoi to get a tourist visa for Thailand. Looking over the needed documents, can anyone clarify what the mean by "a certified true copy", as in this statement? And if it means I have to have some type of certification done, anyone know who, or where I can have this done?

"All personal documents (e.g., copy of identity card, passport, work permit, Thai house registration, etc.) shall be certified true copy, signed and dated by the owner of the documents."

Visiting from the US next week Can I get a Thai tourist visa after entering? And then add a 30 day extension?
