Hello everyone ✨

Please need your help because I’m a little lost in Visa possibilites in my situation.

So my 60days Visa finished yesterday, I went to the immigration office and pay for the 30days.

Now I can stay here until the 20th February.

My goal is to find the best visa to stay until my Flight back home on the 24th of March.

Dont want to leave the country because I take painting lessons here and dont want to lose time ( of course unless no choices ).

Someone can help me please and advice me for the best 🙏🏻 it will be wonderful !

Have a Nice day ✨✨

I have a question, probably a dumb one.

I know we are supposed to stay in the country we submitted the application.

I've also seen some people who went in Thailand before getting the visa, then do a border run to activate the visa.

Is there any issue so far? I just want to know the level of risk. Thank you. Cheers!

I'm near the end of my 1 year multi entry visa, I have to choose between going immigration and get and extension or do a border run and get one last 3 months stamp from this visa.

The question is, if I go immigration, will they give me a 1 year extension or only 2 months extension?

I have 400k in thai bank but it's in investing account not saving account.

Hi, I have a friend from the UK and her tourist visa is about to expire in a few days. She already extended the visa once. I was wondering what is the possibility to stay in Thailand and get the stamp for another 30 days without renewing the visa? Can she do border bouncing or fly in-out and get back in Thailand on the same day?

Thank you very much for your advice!

I just wanted to go ahead and share my experience. I have been living in Thailand for two years now initially just doing boarder runs and then on a 1 year student visa. My student visa ended in September 2024. I did a boarder run to Malaysia and came back on on a 60 day exempt and extended another 30 days. I left Thailand December 20th. I applied for my DTV visa in Vietnam was approved under the workcation category. I entered Thailand and was denied entry initially. I had an interview/interegation my Thai language was tested. I do know quite of bit of Thai but didn't understand some of the questions asked and ultimately failed my interview. They asked for my outgoing ticket I didn't have one I bought a ticket on "OnwardTicket" that I have used in the past with no issues. This time didn't work and was denied entry all together. After my case being transferred to another officer and almost deported. I paid an additional 20k baht and was finally let in the country. Don't know if there was really an issue or just wanted bribe money. But Just thought I'd give a warning to those in similar situations.

Hey all.

I applied for my DTV in the UK before arriving, but it didn't get processed in time. So I crossed the Thai border on a tourist visa, and frustratingly, my DTV was approved only hours afterward.

Does anyone know if I can re-enter with my DTV on a border run or switch over somehow? It is multi-entry, afterall.

Thanks!

I am in Prasat, Surin. Chong Chom is my closest border crossing. I want to do a border run. Does anybody have any info on the latest experience there? Do I have to stay one or two days in Cambodia? I don't have a car at the moment so an extension in Surin is my last choice.

I've looked at all the border-run options and for me the best is an overnight train to Padang Basar, returning the same day on another overnight. Just want to confirm before booking that the 60 day tourist visa will be issued at that border? Also, is there anything to do in Padang Basar during the day-long wait?
