There has been numerous media reports come out today stating big changes in visa entries to Thailand, including that visa exempt entries will get 60 days, and a reduction of the mandatory insurance requirement for OA and OX visas, as of June 1st

Not any official statements that I’ve seen so far but you can check out some details here - [members only]/

Now at this moment in time it’s press articles, so not guaranteed to change, but they state the cabinet have approved the measures. In 4 days we will find out.

Hi. Currently in thailand from the uk on a multi entry visa which gives me 9 months with extensions and visa runs. After this I want to stay but understand that if playing by the rules I have to leave. How long do I have to leave for before I can come back ?

What are the rules for border bounce by sea

Hi, asking for personal experiences of people that had a situation similar to this:

If you have been in thailand fo around six months, using visa runs. Do you know if doing the same next year gets you questioned in airport inmigration or they just care about the stamps on the same year?

does anyone know an answer if you have done a visa run twice in 2022 can you do that again in January 2023 greetings

Hello members,

I am well aware of the two land boarder maximum entry allowance per year.

We entered about two months ago from Malaysia and stayed for 5 days.

We plan to enter again in about a month to stay for a 45 days or more (exemption + eventually extension).

You think somebody will make troubles if I or we go in two weeks for a couple of days to check out an accomodation, then return to malaysia?

Still planing to go again in a month. All through land boarder. It would add up to the third entry in 2022.

Thanks for your advice.

Is that correct that you can do only 2 visa exempt entries in a calendar year? In the past I have done as many as 5 (Australian)

I had five air entries into Thailand from May 1 to July 31. Every time I got a 30 day stamp on arrival. On my last entry, the passport control officer took a little too long scrutinizing my passport. I started strongly leaning towards getting a multiple entry six month tourist visa. But, on my way out of Thailand to spend a month back in the USA, I spoke to two different immigration officers at BKK and asked them if it would be best to get a visa for my next arrival at the end of August. Both were emphatic that as long as my entries are via air, and I stay less than 30 days per entry, I don't need to worry. Wondering if anyone else has had any experience with having a bunch of visa-free entries in a relatively short period of time and if there's ever been any problems. I might have just spoken to two incredibly lenient officials on my way out.

Someone posted this in another group when getting their non-o visa on covid extension. Are these requirements added to the regular 30 day extensions on TR60 and visa exempt entries?

Or is it business as usual on those? Seems excessive for an extension on a 30 days visa that most people explore and move around the whole country with.

Hello , everyone. Could anyone tell me which immigration office I have to go to get my visa extension in Bangkok ?

Do they extend it from the day I apply or from the last day of my 30 day entry ?

Thank you 🙏🏻
