I know people have been saying they've had issues entering in Phuket but I just went through immigration in Phuket. No issues at all! Took less than 5 minutes. Even had a laugh with the officer who served me. First time entering on my DTV! I will be going in and out of Bangkok a lot for the rest of the year so will keep you updated.

I’m hoping to spend 7 months in Thailand and currently trying to get a Multiple Entry Tourist Visa from Canada right now but they have asked for a detailed account of what I am going to be doing during my stay. So I have asked the KPT Language school if I can pay for a 4 month course ‘Thai for Beginners’ in advance, from Canada. I was going to enrol regardless but I had wanted to do it in Thailand - but that’s fine. My question is: I was relying on applying for a 30 day extension and doing a land border bounce through an agent - after reading many posts, I am worried now. Do you think I will have issues?

I know of someone that has a felony that would like to travel to Thailand. Would they be permitted to enter the country to visit for a few days for travel purposes?

Just wanted to notify that I just flew into Thailand today at DMK airport. They are going at it with extra questioning with tons of people having to fill a statement form as well, especially visa-exempt entries. The questioning area was packed. My TDAC was completed before my trip.

I was pulled aside and questioned for an hour because I was going to enter on my 2nd exempt entry. This is the first air-entry in the last 3 years and they still went at it. I kept on providing proof for everything they asked me and I was finally allowed to enter. They warned me to not enter without a visa next time. I thought it was excessive since many people have reported multiple back to back visa-free stays with no issue. I leave in 29 days. Not 60 or 90, so I don't know why I was treated as if I was trying to live here off exempt stays.

Also most others seemed to have issues since they had no booked flight back, as expected.

Hey folks, for DTV holders who arrived after May 1st, what did you select under "purpose of travel" in the TDAC?

I've been in and out multiple times already but this week will be my first time arriving after the TDAC became mandatory.

Returned to the USA 🇺🇸 last month and plan on going back to Thailand 🇹🇭 late November. Was wondering if there has been any more talk about stopping the 60 day visa exemption?

TIA.

I would like to go to Thailand 3 times a year, in February 28 days, in June 29 days and in November 29 days, my flight is always from Belgium to Bangkok, is this possible without a visa? Or would immigration make it difficult to come 3 times a year with a stamp on arrival?

Hi. Can we still get 60 days visa exempt on arrival at the moment, and have thay set a date when its going to change. Cheers.

The Ministry of Tourism and Sports announced that the Thailand Digital Arrival Card (TDAC) system — an online platform for pre-arrival registration — will officially launch on 1 May 2025. Foreign nationals entering Thailand must complete their registration during the three days leading up to their arrival at [members only].

“The system is fully ready, and backup measures are in place to ensure smooth operations. During the initial phase, travelers who encounter any issues can temporarily use a paper immigration form. TDAC is designed to streamline immigration procedures, enhance data accuracy, strengthen security, and make the arrival experience more convenient for international visitors,” said Ms. Natreeya Taweewong, Permanent Secretary of the Ministry of Tourism and Sports.
