Hello everybody!

I want to enter Thailand on a visa, get married at Ampur, register the marrige in Thailand and then change my visa to (Spouse visa) NON-O.

What visa should I use when I arrive in Thailand, that makes this possible?

Am I eligible to apply for the DTV visa this year if I have already stayed in Thailand for more than 180 days this year using a combination of a visa exemption, visa extension, and a border run?

I’m a US citizen planning on traveling to Thailand in September on my third visa exemption in 2025. I was reading someone getting denied and sent back home doing this recently. My plan was to go onward to Vietnam after a month in Thailand and apply for the DTV in HCMC. Has anyone else heard of someone getting denied on their third visa exemption entry by air? Lastly I wanted to set up a condo to rent while I am there on the tourist visa to come back to after hopefully getting approved for the DTV in Vietnam, any advice on this?

Is it possible to come into the country for 60 days and then go across the border for a week and then come back into Thailand for another 60 days on holiday visa? Thanks in advance. I'm from the UK.

Hi I am a bit green at this travelling to Thailand from the UK but have seen some posts of people getting turned away at immigration because to many visits in a short time and it has me worried a bit. I came to Thailand to visit my girlfriend in May for 20 days, then i booked for to come back for 28 days in November, but then she asked me to come back in september for my birthday, i am only staying for 13 days then. My question is will i have a problem coming back in November as it will only be 6 weeks between my visits, any answers will be appreciated cheers Steve

My yearly extension of stay for non-O marriage ends Sept 4th.

I’ll leave Thailand next week and come back end of August 20th, by plane.

Then I’ll leave Thailand again Sept. 16th to my home country (Germany) and come back in November.

What will happen August 20th when I enter Thailand (by plane)

1. with a Reentry Permit: Can I stay until September 19th (after expiry Sept 4th of my extension of stay)?

2. without a Reentry Permit: Will a get a normal 60 day visa-exemption stay ? (I understand that the extension of stay becomes invalid)

Thanks in advance.

Background:

My travel schedule makes it difficult to do the extension as usual b/c my travel collides with the timelines for application and ‘under consideration’ period.

So my idea is to get a new Non-Imm o visa (marriage) multi-entry yearly in my home country before returning in Nov.

The visa itself shouldn’t be a problem. I clearly fulfill all the requirements and did it a few times before .

(sorry, if answered before. I failed to find it)

I'm wanting to stay 90 days. My understanding is I won't need a visa. After 60 days I can extend for 39 days. Is my understanding correct ?

I have a question and could use some advice:

I am coming to Thailand for 3 months or so.......within the first 2 months I am going to fly to the Philippines for 2 weeks and then return to Thailand for the rest of my stay.

Q: Do I need to get an extension prior to leaving for the Philippines? or do I need a certain VISA? or will I just reset my 60 days upon arriving back?

I am still deciding over a Single entry Visa or a second Visa exempt after remaining 59 days this year. But my question is, when asking for the Visa or filling TDAC can i put my real exit date ? I plan to stay around 88 days, so i will ask for an extension near the end of the 60 days. Flying in Emirates, they will allow me to change my return date for a (big) fee, so i could buy a ticket with a return in the 60 day interval and then change. But is it necessary to havbe this kind of expense ? Immigration will understand i am able to extend those 60 days . Thanks

How long is visa exemption now? I am an American citizen.

Thanks
