Sorry about the anonymous post I don't usually do it but don't want a certain person bugging me. Done my second entry today at chiang khong and it was smooth asf. Leaving laos he said you only stayed one night but I had my print out to hand and (laminated with dtv print out on one side and soft power document on the other side.a smile and through in 2 mins max. On the thai side exactly the same but took a bit longer as the lady was interested about my cycle touring as I was entering with my touring bike.took about 3 mins max. Showed my dtv but she just passed it back to be with a โคกดีและปลอดภัยเดินทาง.

Has anyone done a recent 180days extention in BKK? How was the process?

Just entered on a 60 day visa-on-arrival at DMK after spending 4 days in Taiwan. Previously had been in Thailand for a year on a education visa. Was lightly questioned for a minute about school and if I would study more or not, but seems no problem entering again after leaving for a few days. Never usually post here, but I saw a lot of people complain and share rejection stories about visa-on-arrival, specifically at DMK. Possibly its because they tried to do multiple visa-on-arrival back-to-back.

Hi all

I will be overwintering in the Chaiyaphum area with a 6 month METV.

Would anyone happen to know if there is an office in Chaiyaphum where I will be able to get a 30 day extension after the 1st 60 days?

I am just trying to avoid doing 2 border runs.

Hi, I’m currently in Thailand and will need to exit country after 90 days being on a multi entry tourist visa (METV - 60 days + 30 days extension).

Do I have to stay abroad for a certain number of days, or can I leave and return on the same day?

Hi everyone

This is my first time possibly going to be doing this but I was thinking of doing my first border run but I’m a bit skeptical doing it on my own as I do not know anything. I was wondering if any of you know of a possible agent I could use that would arrange everything for me but not being too expensive please 😅

Thanks in advance guys

Why did I get interrogated for one border run ?

They took me to a separate section and asked me all kinds of questions then told me i am staying here too long. I only stayed 2 months at chiang mai and i took a flight to luang prabang for a short trip. They said i need a visa next time. That means no more travel visas? How do you guys do multiple border runs without troubles? I wish i had a DTV visa

Just posting what happened with us for reference. Arrived end of April (US passport) for first time ever in Thailand planning to stay 90 days. After 60 days, we elected not to file an extension as we wanted to spend a week in Cambodia before returning for a month. We left on time, had a blast in Cambodia.

When we arrived back tonight (BKK) we caught the lecture about this being the last time we would be allowed in for a year. He said the rules had changed and he could only give us 45 days. He said from now on foreigners can only stay a total of 90 days per year. Fine with us we are leaving before then. After a 15 minute back and forth we were allowed to enter. I checked as I exited airport; he stamped 60 days.

Yea, yea, I know that’s not the “rules” or whatever. Just letting people on the every 3 month visa run know they are indeed cracking down if I can catch a lecture for my 2nd entrance ever.

Hi, have tried google but got conflicting answers, am curious about the digital nomad visa. Will soon be working remotely for a UK company, am a British citizen, want to move to Thailand. Does the 180 days mean you can only stay 180 days in a single year? Or does it mean you have to do a border run every 180 days?

Hi

I need to do my first border run with DTV

Can I do a round trip flight to Cambodia, stay just 24 hours, and then return to Bangkok?

Or is that too short of a stay?
