Good afternoon everyone.

I did a research here on previous posts about the METV, my visa application just got granted and wanted to make sure few things before I fly to Thailand in order to plan my entries well. If I have understood correctly, with the METV:

1) Every time you land in Thailand you are getting STAMPED on your passport (60 days + 30 if you extend at local IO) - I’m asking this because my passport is running out of pages.

2) If arriving a day before the “valid until” date, you are still eligible to be stamped 60 days - I’m asking these to be clear if what mentioned in previous posts is still the general rule.

Thanks again for your kind help, if you don’t wanna post this, I would just appreciate your kind advice, as you all have been very helpful throughout these years. ขอบคุณมากครับ

Any way around this? I fly in and out of Thailand every month. I am on an LTR remote working. Every month I get stamped in until 2028. But my passport is filling up with stamps. Any ideas to get around this? Thanks

Just trying to get long timers opinions on this, how many blank pages in your passport before you request a new one.

I only have one trip planned to Vietnam next month. 4 pages left. Retirement Non-O

We need advice urgently. We moved to a new school in Bangkok. We had 4 pages left in our passport. We were on a work permit at our previous school. At the new school they took forever for our work permit and we had to travel across the border. Now we only have one and a half pages left in our passport. We went to the South African Embassy and they said they will give us a letter for immigration stating we applied for a new passport. We decided to move to a new school and will have enough space for the Non B and hopefully our new passports will arrive in time. My question has anyone been in a situation like us before?

Any help would be appreciated.

I am an American that received his new passport via the American embassy in Bangkok. The issue is the embassy doesn’t give a letter for the new passport. Will I have any issues getting a tourist stamp on my new passport without the letter?? I ran out of pages, is why I got the new passport issued.

So this is what I tried to do to save my last few pages from immigration monkeys, didn't work, they just removed the note and stamp in the middle of the page.

Last month they managed to waste another half page by stamping wrong not 1 but 2 times.

Hi! I arrived on a TR visa and the red stamp allows me to stay until 23 May. This is my first time to do an extension, and I'd like to find out if I can get an extension for more than 30 days? Running low on passport pages so need to maximise the space I have left until I can return to Myanmar around August and hopefully receive a new passport by then.

How many pages do I need in my passport to renew my retirement visa?

Following Garrett Greenwald comment on another post regarding the new Laos e-Visa i went though the steps till the last page outta curiosity.

$46.58

And its 30 dollars (depends on nationality but oscillates between 30-35) at the border/airport.

Not trying to be cheap, complain or anything.

For someone with a few pages left on the passport it might be very well worth the extra 16 dollars.

Or someone who doesnt mind the 16 dollars and doesnt wanna fill forms on arrival, queue that long (the e-Visa lane at the airport is always empty)

It did caught my attention cuz Cambodian e-Visa is 6 dollars more (which many end up paying just as much in brives at the border).

Seems reasonable to pay a bit more for the platform, the convenience, plus the credit card processing fees they have to pay, etc.

But 50%... mmm...

When you get an ed visa do you know how many pages they use in your passport. Including the three month immigration checks. Thanks Also if you have previous pages that they skipped in your passport can they go back and use those pages..
