I need to be out of my rental here in the US by the end of the month and I’m not sure if I will get approved by then. Does anyone know if it is OK to fly to Thailand and arrive on a tourist visa, then exit the country and re-enter to activate my DTV Visa upon reentry? I was able to do this when I traveled to Indonesia with no issues. If its a risk to enter now i will book a flight to Laos or PH. Until i know if i am approved.

If you’re not sure, and just like to hear your own voice, please refrain from making pointless comments about it. (you know who you are) lol.

Yes i know i should have gotten the application submitted sooner. It took longer to complete because of reasons i dont need to explain here.

How many time can I cross the border to Thailand on foot to get a visa exemption stamp?

I know it use to being twice per calendar year, and six times with airplane.

But someone told me it's not a limit anymore, someone have experience doing this more than two times per calendar year?

My girlfriend and me are applying for tourist E-Visa online. We live together for 25 years. But for my girlfriend, the officer is requesting the Domestic partnership certificate. (please check the screenshot in attachment)

But we do not have this document, because:

In Slovenia, cohabiting couples are equal in rights and obligations to married couples.EXAMPLE:A couple that has been living together for several years, is emotionally attached as lovers, shares finances, but hadn’t got married, will be considered living in a cohabitation partnership.

We live in Slovenia and would like to go to Thailand from 4th February till 17th March (40 days). For Slovenian citizens, we need visa if we stay more than 30 days.

What can I do?

Please help, thank you!

Hello everyone,

I require some advice or guidance please.

My retirement visa expires on the 28th December and I will not renew. I have booked a same-day return flight to KL on the 26/12. I have been informed that I only need to cancel my multiple entry permit at departure immigration Thailand. And that I receive a 60 day tourist visa upon my return at arrivals immigration TH.

Is this correct? Thanks for your time

Hey guys, I’m currently in Thailand and trying to figure out how to stay longer—around 3 months or more.

I’d like to avoid land border runs (I really don’t trust those mini-vans 😅), but I’m trying to plan things out properly.

Here’s my situation so far:

- June 2 to July 10, 2024: I stayed in Thailand earlier this year (used the 45-day visa exemption + 30-day extension).

- December 9, 2024, to February 7, 2025: I’m currently here again (planning to use the 60-day visa exemption + 30-day extension).

I'm from Portugal, Europe..if that matters.

In February 2025, I’m thinking about leaving by plane for a week, go to China for a few days, and then flying back to Thailand.

My goal is to get another visa exemption for another 2-3 months.

I know it’s ultimately up to the immigration officer, but how strict are they considering the days I spent here the last year?

Would this work, or should I look into another solution?

I’m planning to get an DTV/ED in June 2025, so I just need to figure out how to handle my stays until then.

Thanks for any tips or experience you can share!

Hi I have a uk passport and I'm flying to Thailand in February and plan to stay for just under 2 months.

I have a couple of questions.

Will I get granted a visa at arrival?

Would I be able to fly to Vietnam and come straight back in to Thailand within those 60 days or do I need to apply for a specific multiple entry visa?

Thanks in advance

I want to add that this is a standard rule in other countries, which is why I wonder if Thailand also has this.

What is the general rule regarding staying in Thailand under visa exemptions? I was recently denied entry after spending a total of around 150 days in Thailand over the past few months using visa exemptions.

My question is: does this reset when the new calendar year begins, or will immigration still see my previous stays in their system and deny me entry unless I obtain a proper visa?

Thanks!

Dear DTVers..

I would like to ask for advice.

I had submitted my application on December 11th in Cambodia and pending now.

The thing is that I have 14 days visa and my visa expires on the 23rd, so should I extend it?

How to extend for a visa in Cambodia and how long does it take?

Many thanksss.. 🙏🏻

Hi guys, I’m planning a move to Thailand. I’m 25 and am looking to enter with the regular tourist visa and then continue to stay on an ED visa. Was wondering if anyone had any recommendations on schools or can tell me about their experience going this route.

Hi everyone! I submitted one week ago a tourist visa request for 90 days (single entry). I’m Italian so I applied online through the royal Thai embassy of Rome.

Yesterday I’ve been asked to reupload proof of accommodation and round trip flight from Italy. I’ve done so and today I received this very vague email, saying my application was cancelled without any explanation.

Anyone had a similar case?

I don’t mind reapplying again but if I don’t know why the application was cancelled in the first place I risk getting rejected once again.

Thanks in advance 🙏🏻
