Extension and border run. Will I be let in?

So in 2024 I entered in july 2024 for a week.

Then in September i came back and stayed for around 80 days with an extension and then left for three weeks to Indonesia and Malaysia and finally came back for another 35 days and left in January 2025

I am planning to visit early Jan 2026. Will be previous pattern be a problem? It would have been almost 12 months since I left. No entries in 2025.

Thanks for any insight.

Hello friends!

Is it true that from January 1st the entry rules for Thailand will change and that entry will only be allowed twice per year?

Please can someone confirm how long a multi re-entry permit is valid for? I'm currently on a Non-O retirement visa with first extension due before March 2026. If I visit Vietnam for a week at the end of January and get a multi re-entry permit before departure, is it valid for a year or will it automatically expire when I apply for the first extension of my non-o? Many thanks

Hello, could someone please confirm whether it is not possible to get a 30-day extension of a visa exemption for the third time in the same year?

Thank you.

Edit: problem solved with one agency and 5000 thb..

Hi, I am coming to Thailand on a double entry tourist visa in January for a duration of 4 months.

I've lived in Thailand in the past and have been on a working visa so I am new navigating tourist visa requirements...

I will be staying at a friend's house while I am there and he cannot supply me with the TM-30 form though - will I need this if I simply do a boarder bounce after 60 days?

If you got 2 metv per year costing £300,wouldn’t it be better than jumping thru hoops trying to get a retirement visa probably work out cheaper & you wouldn’t have to leave 800,000 baht in your account

What’s the advantage & disadvantage over this

I'm traveling several times starting on December 31st. Going to Thailand a total of 3 times until March and then 1 more in June. Never stay more than 60 days. I had written to the embassy in Berlin whether I needed a visa. They wrote back quickly with the recommendation, for the 2. Entry to apply for a visa.

Now I have requested a tourist multi for 175 euros. The first application was cancelled because I must have set a hook wrong, I provided travel document and not passport. I thought travel was the passport.

Then I have the 2. Request submitted. Verified again 175 euros via Mastercard.

Now 2x175 Euros were marked down on the Mastercard. There is hope that the the the for the 1st Withdraw my application, because I didn't get a visa?

If not, that would be really sh.... expensive. Especially if it wasn't really necessary, as I hear from others here.lg

-------------

Ich reise ja mehrfach ab 31.12. nach Thailand ein insgesamt 3x bis März und dann noch 1x im Juni. Bleibe nie länger als 60 Tage. Ich hatte die Botschaft in Berlin angeschrieben, ob ich ein Visa brauche. Sie schrieben schnell zurück mit der Empfehlung, für die 2. Einreise ein Visa zu beantragen.

Nun habe ich ein Tourist Multi für 175 Euro beantragt. Der erste Antrag wurde gecancelt, da ich wohl einen Haken falsch gesetzt hab, ich habe travel document und nicht Passport angegeben. Ich dachte Travel wäre der Reisepass.

Dann habe ich den 2. Antrag gestellt. Wieder 175 Euro per Mastercard verifiziert.

Nun wurden auf der Mastercard 2x175 Euro vorgemerkt. Besteht die Hoffnung, dass die die für den 1.Antrag zurückziehen, denn ich hab ja kein Visa bekommen?

Wenn nein wäre das ja echt sch.... teuer. Vor allem, wenn es eigentlich nicht nötig wäre, wie ich von anderen hier höre.lg

Just Landed in BKK ~ On my 8th trip this year . No visa Run - Stays vary between 7-14 days each trip !

Asked to show my bank account ( App ) , What I do for work ( Pilot - Crew ) . End of story !

I was sent my way .

Ps: I think , it’s only a red flag if you have Multiple visa runs & staying close to your exemption timeline .

Happy Hollidays All 😵
