I’m from Germany and actually staying in Thailand till 17 Dez. Then I fly to Bali for 7 Days and return to Thailand. In this time I want to apply for the DTV with a Muay Thai course. Is it possible in this time return to Thailand and get the DTV Visa? Or can I come back to Thailand on the 24 Dez, get Visa on arrival and get the DTV E-Visa when I am already there? Thanks for helping

Hello,

Are there any Mexican nationals who have traveled to Thailand recently who can share their experience with getting a visa upon arrival? Is it required…I’m seeing different things online.

Hi we are flying to Vietnam in January. Can we fly to Thailand during this trip and get a Visa on arrival? Edit sorry from Australia

Hi come to Thailand 1st dec is it still 60 day visa on arrival from uk or do I need to get my tourist visa online thanks

Thanks in advance for your advice everyone!

So I’m not looking to stay in Thailand long term, at least not yet - I’m just figuring out my extension option so I can stay until my lease ends Jan 14 and complete 3 months here.

My current 60 day visa on arrival ends Dec 6. I could do the 30 day extension for 1,900 baht until Jan 6 but that leaves me with 8 days and I’d like to have a bit more flexibility to stay until the end of my lease.

So it seems I’m left with either the border run to Laos option which appears to cost roughly 6,300 - OR I could also fly roundtrip to visit friends in Malaysia for 5,500. But that also assumes that doing the border run or flight to Malaysia would actually give me a new 60 days and not just 30 which isn’t enough.

Is there another simple option here?

Will I definitely 100% get another 60 days and not 30 days by going to Malaysia or Laos?

I am planning on staying 150 approx and it appears to me that I have two options if I do not get a visa prior to arrival.

1. 60 day visa on arrival followed by a border run and finally a 30 extension.

2. 60 day visa on arrival followed by a 30 day extension then a border run. This may have the adavatage of another extension if things go pear shaped.

Any advice will be appreciated.

Do I need a visa for 15 days.

Can anyone enter Thailand with the DTV visa online just by showing the visa on their cell phone or do they only accept the printed visa?

In the past there was a different no of days allocated to a visa on arrival for an overland entry (15 days) to Thailand vs an international airport entry (30 days)

Does the 60 days visa on arrival now apply to all methods of entry to Thailand. If the 60 day visa on arrival applies to border runs, how many of these can you do before they shut the door on you? Has anyone tested this validity? If so what is the number reached?

Looking a bit forward of that, is there any idea yet, when and how, the mooted 'Schengen' type S-E Asian visa will come into being? Either in a total model or a phased in model?

Also when does the Thai government $13.00 tourist tax kick in and will it be collected?

Thanks in advance.

Some visa questions (and thanks very much in advance)

My family and I are starting the process of moving from Nevada to Hua Hin. My wife is a Thai citizen and my 19 year old daughter was born in Bangkok. We moved back to the USA when my daughter was 2 years old so the only Thai ID we have for her is her birth certificate and she has a US passport. My mother and I are American.

Questions: For my daughter, do we need to go to the consulate in Los Angeles to get her a Thai passport, or can she just get a 90 day visa online with my mom and me and then get Thai ID after she gets to Thailand, or can she just show her birth certificate and get a visa on arrival without a return ticket?

How long does it take to get the online 90 day visa, and do we have to wait for my mom to get her US passport to apply.

Would rather not go to LA if possible, long drive, hotel stays, etc But also don't want to have to buy round trip tickets.

Thanks so much!
