I am currently in Thailand on a 60-day tourist visa, issued as an Indian national with a visa sticker. I would like to inquire about the process for extending my stay. I have been informed that a 30-day extension is possible; however, I have also heard that in some cases, only a 7-day extension may be granted.

Could you kindly provide guidance on how I can apply for a 30-day extension of my current visa? Additionally, I would appreciate any advice on whether it is possible to obtain a new 60-day tourist visa from within Thailand, or if I would need to exit the country to apply for a new visa.

Thank you in advance for your assistance. I look forward to your response.

Has anyone applied for the Tourist Visa Extension online? I'm trying to do that now, but it's asking for a Passport Cover Page. What is that? Also, for the TM30, the owner of the condo registered us, so I just need the proof from them and to upload that, correct?

If arriving as a tourist to Thailand (from NZ) one can get 60 days + 1 extension = 90 days total. Must one show proof of outgoing flight ticket, and can it be 90 days from arrival? Thankyou in advance.

I have a Filipina friend wanting to visit Thailand… She is a first time traveller outside her country, but she will have the 20.000 Bahts along with an Address of accommodations as well as the Return Ticket required -after her 60 or 90day stay as is the New Rules published on July 15th for the Tourist Visa Exemption Scheme for Philippines…

I did read a few articles on Sponsoring, but as a Foreign on long term visa here in the Kingdom, I am not even sure if that is an option although the Officer could check with a few clicks that the place of residence is a match to her Declaration as well as I been living here for over 10 years, so that could at the very least give Validity to her Declaration. Thanks in advance for your educated advice. Very much appreciated

How long does it usually take to get a tourist visa after applying? Going in a few weeks but I may not be able to buy a ticket until a few days before I go.

hello friends, I will apply for a tourist visa at the Thai embassy. For flight tickets to Thailand, does it have to be 2 weeks before applying for a visa? I will apply for a tourist visa tomorrow and my departure ticket to Thailand on July 20th. is that okay?

Thank you

Unfriendly welcome at Suvarnabhumi Airport

Yesterday just after midnight and after 4.5 months of travelling in China and central Asia I arrived back in Thailand at Suvarnabhumi airport. Wanted to enter on visa Excempt like I normally do 2 or 3 times a year since 2011. Nowadays I extend the visa after 1 month with that 1900 baht extension. So I normally stay for 2 months then travel 3 or 4 months in Asia and then come back. During Covid I have not been in Thailand for 2 years.

My 7 year old 66 page Dutch passport is now full with Asian visa stamps and stickers. The emigration officer goes through all of them. He speaks he mix of english and Thai numbers and Thai border cities to himself or to me, that was not clear. Then asks how long I want to stay. I say 30 days, but then i remember the rumor of 60 day excempt and say 60 days. He did not like that answer and presses the red button.

Another officer comes and I have to follow him to a desk. He blames me of going to other countries 1 day and then come back, which I never did. Mostly there are 3 or 4 months between my reentries. Then he showed me Lao stamps from 2018 where I stayed 1 week in Laos. Is that not allowed? He says if he went to my country he would have more problems, well can I help that? He blamed me for coming for thai girls.

I could enter this time but next time would send me back.

So is there a rule that I cannot enter 2 or 3 times on visa excempt? I know at land borders its 2 times.

Does thailand no like tourists?

Should I worry next time when I want to enter on visa excempt?

PS Next morning after sleeping on the bench in the airport, I suddenly remember the first thing the first officer said was something with 2 dollar, but I could not hear it clear and asked sorry? Or did I dream this?

Last week I submitted my application to the Royal Thai embassy in Canberra ( Aust ) for a 60 day tourist visa ( done it many times over many years ) my application & all the documents were returned within 4 days - with advice that the embassy doesn’t handle visa applications by post any more & that I must submit a E-VISA ( instructions were enclosed ) - After 3+ hours - trying to wade through the technical jargon - I gave up in dispare - if your not computer literate, ile advise everyone, you will have to go to a private business that handles all kinds of visa applications - any advice anyone ?
