hello friends, I will apply for a tourist visa at the Thai embassy. For flight tickets to Thailand, does it have to be 2 weeks before applying for a visa? I will apply for a tourist visa tomorrow and my departure ticket to Thailand on July 20th. is that okay?

Thank you

Hi guys,

Thanks for accepting me to the group and for such a helpful site. Apologies if this scenario has been dealt with previously…

My husband and I are UK citizens and arrived on the 30 day exemption visa on 5th April. Our circumstances have now changed and we’re now able (visa permitting) to continue travelling in Thailand until July. Therefore we’d ideally like to extend for up to three months.

We’ve started looking at whether it’s possible to do this on line but we’re not getting very far. The theme of the posts I’ve read on here seem to suggest the immigration office being best but I’d really appreciate any information you’re able to share please on how to navigate this.

Specifically:

- can we extend for three months in one go or does it need to be in 30 day chucks (and if only 30 day chunks, are we able to do that more than once)

- do we need to have our departing flights booked

- do we need to have proof of accommodation for the duration (which would be difficult given our intention to travel around)

Many thanks in advance 😊

Hi do you have to book your flight before applying for your non immigrant o visa based on retirement. Is there anyone can help with this please .

Hello, I want apply for a STV and on the online page they need a flight umber. But I didn't booked yet because I want go back to Thailand soon as possible, but I don't know how long I have to wait for the visa. Have anyone experience in this? I am now on Austria

Entering on a 30 day visa exemption has anyone gotten away with having your "flight out" be 60 days from arrival (with planned extension)? I actually do need a flight at that time and will be booking it. Do I also need to have a booking for within the 30 days?

I know officially the answer is Yes, but any experience with the 60 day being okay?

Anyone with experience boarding AirAsia with a 60 day departure on a 30 day exemption - please comment!

Hi everyone, I am planning to fly to Thailand around the 12th this month. I am AUSTRIAN and I am currently residing in China. I would like to apply for a 60 days tourist visa in Hong Kong and also I would like to keep the waiting time for the visa to a minimum, as HK is an expensive place to wait. Does anyone here have experienced a Thai visa application in HK? Also which exact documents will I need to prepare. Is a booked flight to leave Thailand 100% necessary or is their any way to avoid that. I don't know what I am up to after 3 months, so booking a flight now would be a bit ridiculous.

Thanks in advance and happy new year everyone :)
