Hello group members,

Need some advice regarding land border entry for tourism.

Nationality: Indian, eligible for 60 day visa free entry

1. Planning to fly in to BKK, travel to the north for 7 days (Chiang Mai-Chiang Rai) , cross-over to Laos, and take the boat to Luang Prabang, and spend 10 days in Laos.

2. Cross over to Thailand via Nong Khai border (avail visa free entry), travel Nong Khai to BKK , then take the bus from BKK to Siem Reap (Cambodia).

3. Stay in Cambodia for 10 days, crossover again to Thailand from Aranyaprathet, and fly back to India.

Key questions:

1. Is the visa free entry scheme for Indian citizens valid for these 2 border crossings- Nong Khai and Aranyaprathet. I have seen reports of some Indians being denied entry at Nong Khai and asked to fly from Vientiene to Bangkok instead.

2. Is there any restriction on the number of times a person can avail the visa free entry scheme, (i will be entering Thailand 3 times within a period of 30 days, before finally flying back to India)

3. Am i expected face any additional scrutiny or entry denial on account of my nationality, vs say a person from a first world country?

Kindly provide your inputs.

Warm Regards

Hi lam coming tomorrow Thailand on the 25th of November with a 60 day visa free entry, but would like to extend it to 90 days.

Is it possible to ask on arrival for the extra 30 days or should l wait and extend my stay by going to an immigration office in Bangkok ?

Also as l have a Thai friend who will be picking me up l do not have a hotel reservation or proof of Accommodation, but will be staying at a resort but will book when l arrive, would this be a problem on arrival without proof of accommodation.

Thanks for any help.

Paul.

I am currently in Bangkok on a non-O visa. I am Canadian and can enter VISA free for 60 days. I don't intend to extend my non-O visa so I am not getting a re-entry permit on my way to Vietnam where I will apply for a a DTV e-visa.

Do I have to wait for the result of my application as I need to fly back to Bangkok the following day. If my VISA is approved on my way back I could technically check when I arrive in Bangkok but I have nowhere to print a copy to show to the IO. So my question is can I just enter Bangkok on 60-day VISA free and activate the DTV Visa the next time I re-enter Bangkok? Has anyone been on a similar situation?

I am dual citizen. One passport allows me to enter Vietnam Visa Free and the other one requires a Visa. I will be applying for DTV visa using the passport that requires Visa to enter Vietnam. Question- is there anyone in a similar situation who entered Vietnam Visa free? How did you go about with the entry stamp requirement?

Confused by everyone's conflicting information.

I'm Canadian

90 day air ticket booked and paid. If I arrive without a visa and just get visa free stamp on arrival for the 60 days but intend to add another 30 days extension. Will the lack of an exit flight in 60 days time be an issue. Or will the 90day exit flight I have booked make sense.

hello all

maybe a silly question but i have been waiting for dtv visa approval since august 14. The application has been delayed because they needed additional documents and the person doing the visa applications is currently on leave. Now, tomorrow I will arrive in Thailand. Since I meet all the conditions I suspect my visa application will be approved but since the circumstances so not until I am already in the country. In other words, I will enter on a visa-free basis (so I suspect I will also have to show a return ticket from within 60 days?). Now, my question is, if I get my dtv visa while I am in the country, do I still have to leave the country and back in for this visa to be valid? Or can I solve this by e.g. stopping by a migration office?

It's complicated.

Arriving in Thailand next week with my Thai lady.

Our UK return flights are scheduled for 3 months after our arrival.

1. Might I have issues (not being a Thai resident) in that my return flight is more than the 60 days automatic visa free stay period for UK nationals? I've been advised *by friends and acquaintances) everything from "forget about it, there'll be no problems" to "better book a flight out of Thailand before the 60 days, even if you don't use it" and "just book a bus to Vietnam during the 60 day period even if you don't use it".

1. It GETS WORSE in that I will actually leave Thailand by (aroundabouts) the 60 days (as yet unscheduled business appointments to keep in the UK) but will be booking flights from LOS to the UK and back, once the dates I must be back in the UK are confirmed, so that me and my Thai lass can return back to the UK together, as per the already scheduled flight.

1. When I return to Thailand, having been away as advised, should I go through immigration as a new arrival or do I need to go to the visa extension desk?

I hope that little lot is a little clear than appears, at first reading.

Any advice gratefully received.

Thank you.
