I am not going to renew the retirement visa which is due on 16apr and i am planning to leave on 15apr. As i will back to thailand later 1 week using visa exemption.

1. Do i need to cancel the retirement visa (with multiple re-entry) before i leave?

2. Will i be asked any question when i come back using visa exemption?

3. I may extend 30 days, again will i be asking any quesion (judging of having retirement visa before and now change to visa exemption.)

After returning to Thailand with a re-entry stamp for the next 90 day report would I use my original entry date or my new entry date arriving with the re-entry stamp. Tia

Dear group

I’ve been a DTVisa holder since 28th of August 2025 and didn’t leave Thailand until mid December last year. It was on Christmas Eve when I passed the immigration at Suvarnabhumi / BKK airport. All immigration counters were tremendously overrun and queues seemed endless. I want to emphasize, that it was my first time to re-renter Thailand within my DTVisa. When handing my passport to the immigration officer, I also did lay down the personalized eVISA print that one should bring when the initial DTVisa stamp is received (which was 2nd of September in my case). I just wanted to make sure, that I can offer literally all of the documents authority’s could ask one for when checking your VISA status. After my passport and the mentioned eVISA print were present on the counter I grabbed for my phone to look up the DTAC (digital arrival card) on it. When doing this (while my eyes were only focusing my phone), the officer allegedly did the following: re stamping my passport, without asking for my DTAC, for another 6 months of DTVisa. However, believe it or not, I didn’t take notice of that and was just surprised that she already handed me back my documents without even asking for the DTAC with a stressed "tee nee" ( = there you go?). I did neither hear her stamping nor did I notice that she was actually writing down something in my passport. Not to mention, that BKKs immigration counter area was loud as hell on 24th of December.

Now, mid of January, I was about to get my papers together for an extension of my current 6-month-DTVisa that is supposed to end on 28th of February. Since I was completely unaware of what was done to my current DTVisa on Christmas Eve, I had to trace back that it must have been the immigration officer’s „mistake“ to think, that I would have asked for my initial 6 months of DTVisa when encountering her on 24th of Dec. ? I really don't know what to make out of this and the narration of what she might have thought when stamping my passport is pure speculation.

Can anyone recall a similar scenario or report if this just went terribly wrong since the immigration officer did misinterpret my offered documents? I did read about some other DTVisa holders’s stories in this group that local Royal Immigration Offices would sometimes tend to fend off when a foreigner shows up with a „maverick“ case.

I hope I don’t ask for too much when I enquire for any advise on this. Is it likely that they will be able to comprehend plus resolve the „matter“?

Thank you very much for your attention & engagement. I’d be more than happy to receive any advice on this matter, khrap 🙏

Will my multiple entry tourist visa get invalid if I didn’t do re entry visa when I fly out of Thailand?

Good morning

I intend visiting Thailand in January using Visa Exempt 60 day entry. I then intend visiting Laos also in January, when re-entering Thailand would I still have the days left of the original entry unused?

Or would an EVisa be a better option.

Thanks for any help.

Hi everyone! I’m a bit confused about the new visa-exempt rules (60 days + 30-day extension), so I’d really appreciate your help.

I’m planning to stay in Thailand for about 90–97 days total, but during this period I will need to leave the country for a few days for international sports events.

My questions are:

1️⃣ If I leave Thailand before completing the first 60 days, and then come back, can I still apply for the +30-day extension later?

Or will immigration only give me the 7-day grace period after re-entry?

2️⃣ If I re-enter during the same 90–97-day overall window, does my time outside Thailand count toward the 90 days, or does the clock only count the days spent inside Thailand?

3️⃣ Basically:

– Can I leave once or twice within the 90–97-day allowance and still use the full 60+30 days?

– Or does leaving “interrupt” or reduce the extension?

I’ve watched several update videos, but the explanations weren’t fully clear on how exits and re-entries affect the new 60+30 system, so any firsthand experience or clarification would help a lot!

Thank you so much in advance! 🙏✨

I have a marriage visa and leave Thailand for a visit to my home country. Can I get the re-entry visa at the airport in Bangkok and do I need the marriage cert. Just to clarify as I did not carry it along.
