Can anyone advise.Wanting to come on a 30- 60 day Visa free visit from Australia. Can I exit Thailand eg fly to Germany for a week and then return and stay for the remaining period that is stamped in my passport or am I better off to apply for a Visa if wanting to do this?

It states that from November 13 last year, 2025 anybody without a long-term Visa can only stay a maximum of 90 days in Thailand, in any 12 month period .

I want to know specifically if this affects the METV Visa, as I have just obtain this and wish to use it for Multiple entries and stay in Thailand for up to 5 months.

I am an Australian passport holder."

The new guidelines are for people entering visa exempt, without a visa. There is no 90-day limit for anyone. Immigration are just keeping a closer eye on people who are abusing the system and trying to live in Thailand without a long-term visa.

You will be fine for 5 months, especially if you have an METV.

Hi, I hold an Australian passport and am in Thailand now. Planning to apply for the MT DTV in December.

- Any recommendations re cities/countries to apply from, in terms of visa success rate, length of process and price?

- Re occupation, is it easier to write unemployed’ so that they won’t ask further evidence re income?

Hi does anyone know about the visa exemption after May 1 2025, I booked and paid for my trip from Australia before this was announced I’m going for 37 days, can I get a 60 exemption visa on arrival or will I be able to apply online when doing the arrival card

I appreciate any knowledge you might have thanks:)

I’m from Australia, I have visited Thailand three times in 2024 on a free Tourist  Visa.

Just back in Oz on December 14 

Heading back there on January 3 2025.

Am I in danger of being denied entry for too many trips?

If so, what would be the easiest option for a 60 day stay without needing money in a tight bank account.

Would appreciate any helpful advice 🙏😁

Funny I went to a travel agent to book a holiday to Thailand and she said 30days on arrival no visa required I said they have changed it to 60 days on arrival I'm from Australia 🇦🇺 she didn't believe me who is right me or the travel agent ?

I had always thought that the visa exemption limit of two entries per year only applied to land entry. The Thai Embassy website in Australia has this information [members only]/ which does not qualify the entry type. I am seeking advice and experience of group members for the application of visa exemption for Australian passport holders entering Thailand at Suvarnabhumi airport. I have a friend wanting to travel by air next month who has already entered Thailand twice by air this year. Thanks for any advice.

Help please, we are Australian passport holders and travelling since beginning of this year. I don't know how but it completely slipped my mind to go to the Thai Embassy in Hanoi where we have been staying the last few weeks and apply for a Thai visa. 🙄😬 So I know as Australians we are visa exempt for the first 30 days but how do we get our visa time covered after that? We will be staying 28 days in Bangkok, then a month in Chiang Mai before staying another 28 days in Bangkok? Preferably not having to do a visa run. Any help appreciated. We will be leaving Hanoi for Bangkok this Sunday. Thank you!

Hi Everyone new to this group so thank you and please be gentle 🤣

I'm from Australia and we get 30 day visa exemption however my question is:

If I decide to stay a bit longer while there what length of days can I request to extend by 15, 30 or 60? There is so many different suggestions thought I would ask the experts in this group.

Thanks for being gentle and look forward to responses 😀

Hi . Planning to arrive into Thailand from Laos at Huay Xai land border entry.

Confused as to whether Australians are eligible for 15 day or 30 day visa exemption if arriving via land?

And are we still able to apply for an extension once we have arrived?

Cheers
