I usually use just the passport.Visa exempt stamp in my passport and then I go out of the country every sixty days and I have had no problems. This trip I have a tourist Visa which is valid until October multiple entries.And at the end of the two months I went to laos and when I came back to don muang i was pulled aside and taken to an area where they looked at my history of traveling. They made me show them my Visa. My bank accounts in America how much money I had on my hotel reservation, My return ticket to America which is in October and also I had to get my girlfriend's I.D picture and show them that. So after all that they did allow me entry but they said if I try to do a two month exit and come back again they will possibly ban me from coming to thailand. I thought the tourist Visa would not be a problem.So what everyone has been saying about it becoming more difficult to come back into thailand after short exits is true. As of today I will be leaving one month before my return ticket date. I may go to the immigration office and try to apply for an extension and see.I have the same problem.I did at the airport. Anybody have a suggestion on that?

Strange experience at DMK airport,

I’m on DTV remote work, went on a 5 day trip to Vietnam (so called border bounce, instead of the documentation nightmare in immigration extension).

I come to the counter, and the following:

Officer- “how many days you plan to stay?”

Me - “around 90/120 days, still not sure.”

Officer - looks at me with strange look.

Me - I thought he think I’m tourist visa so I mention “I’m on DTV visa.”

Officer - “visa in nothing, I’m decide if you come or go. Where you go after Thailand”

Me - I have a booked trip to Hong Kong and then Dubai.

Officer - you don’t go home country? You don’t miss your mom or dad?

Me - not sure, I’m digital nomad, I travel and work on laptop.

Idk why I got the “tourist on 7th attempt to visa run” treatment while I do have the proper visa and everything is legit. I guess officer had sudden urge to flex he’s the boss?

Should I start considering elite visa? I do live in Thailand, have Gf, 4 cats, car - kinda bummer

Hi, I'm from the UK

I entered Thailand on visa exemption in June, stayed 30 days and then flew to Cambodia.

I flew back after 5 days on visa exemption it had changed to 60 days so I stayed and then flew to the Philippines.

After 5 days I flew back to Thailand and stayed 60 and the extended 30.

I flew out before Christmas to korea and will return on the 2nd of January.

Do you think I will have issues entering next week?

Hello! We are Bulgarian citizens and We have an upcoming trip to Thailand, and we booked flights to Cambodia for a 2-night stay, after which we will return to Thailand. However, we recently found out that we might have an issue with entering Thailand for the second time. Has anyone encountered this situation, and what can we do about it? 🥲🥲

Hey, just wanna hear same experiences with our situation. Parents on Ed-visa. 2 toddlers overstayed. We are planning to fly out to KL after our ed visa expires and come back after 1 week here in TH. Toddlers overstay for 1 year. What are the circumstances that we might encounter at Immigration? I’ve read that toddlers are not banned and fined. Does anyone already experience this? i’d love to hear your thoughts 🙏 thank you

I am staying in Thailand for 2 weeks on a tourist visa. Flying to Bali for 1 week. Then returning to Bangkok for 1 night before flying home.......Will I have any re-entry visa issues?

I arrived in Thailand in September last year on visa exemption. I have been on Covid extension ever since. If I leave the country for 2 weeks and try to enter again on a new visa exemption am I likely to face any problems? I would be traveling by air.

I have a non b with multi reentry expiring may 4th ...my work permit is just renewed for 1 year ...I usually travel out every 3 months. But couldn't before due to closure of borders. What should I do now ?

I hope this is the correct forum for asking: I have an A-O so called retirement visa, from USA, still good for,the rest of this year. I made planes to go to Laos for a week. Does anyone know if I will have any problems re-entering the country in a week? Will I need a health certificate of some kind? Thanks in advance.

My friend is on a UK passport he had 4 entries into Thailand in 2019 his visa is about to run out if he comes goes to another country and get tourist visa from the Thai embassy in another country could he have problems coming in at the airport
