Please can somebody help me on visas I would like to know if I stay in Thailand for 3 months how long before I can go back as I want to live between England and Thailand and what visa I would need. I tried phoning the Thai embassy but can’t get through. Or if someone can give me a email address for the visas thanks.

Hi folks just wanted to get the latest on which embassies outside of Thailand can offer the multiple entry Non O marriage visa. Singapore had it for years, removed it, recently brought it back, then removed it again :(.

Coming in on a single then extending inside Thailand is not an option due to the 60 day inside country ( before you can apply ) criteria as I work on rotation. Very frustrating as I'm sure this effects a large number of people who bring in good money to the country. Coming in on a single every time, applying 21 days before online will just not work, that method would also require me to have 400k locked up for the entire year.

I will be working in Australia next month for a little while if that helps ,?

E TR visa no option for multi entry?? I will land in BKK stay a week the japan for a week the back to BKK I’m sure there used to be ?? Thanks 🙏

Hello! I have a (possibly dumb) question for you all about multiple entries into Thailand.

I understood the 5 year multiple entries into Thailand as 10 x 180 day blocks. So, each time you enter you get another 180 days but it's possible for this to run out. I.e. if I come and go 11 times, that's the visa done.

However, my friend told me that we're good to come and go for a whole five years, and leaving just gets you another 180 days to stay. So in theory you can come and go as you please within a five year period.

I'd very much like what he said to be true - can someone more clued up than me confirm please?

I am traveling to Thailand since 23 years, now being 50yrs old with German passport, and always on visa exempt stamp.

Since last year it seems using this way of entering the country is getting more and more tricky as I enter the country 2-3x during a 4 weeks holiday trip entering other SEA countries as well.

I also own a Condo in my name in Pattaya btw.

Now wondering what visa to apply for, probably DTV as I have all the requirements handy, to get not stressed with questions and evidence for my own purpose.

What is your guys recommendation in my case for 2-3 yearly visits to SEA in total not more than 120days but multiple Thailand entries?

I don't want to live there or apply for a standard tourist visa as I can't see a big difference.

As German I have also 2 passports (both German) which is allowed for critical purposes and land borders (Emirates, Israel, Cuba etc.) and I could potentially change my passport each time or so.

What are your recommendations for best and flexible options for myself?

Hi everyone!

I might have a rather stupid question but this visa is still new and confusing so please forgive my ignorance.

DTV visa is a multiple entry visa and is given for 5 years. Every time you enter you get 180 days.

Does it mean 2x180 entries a year x 5 years or like I am allowed to travel and have, say, 3-4 entries a year without it affecting the overall 5 years timeline?

Let me share a strange case !

I applied for DTV at Vientiane Embassy and got approved today, but the visa type issued is 'Tourist TR' with multiple entry instead of DTV. I applied for DTV and also paid the visa fees set for DTV.

Do embassies have the rights to give out whatever type of visa they want to without my consent?

Have anyone experienced a similar case? Please share your knowledge on that case if u have any, and kindly leave suggestions for me.

Do you need a re-entry permit while on the DTV visa?

So, the date must not exceed 180 days?

Hi, after some advice on Residence certificate: I have my Retirement visa and a multiple entry visa both valid until 26 January 2026, I travelled back to the UK before my 1st 90 day reporting was necessary to sort some things out in the UK and I will be returning 28 February i.e. end of this month. I am reading that to apply for my residence cert I need to have stayed for 90 days and done my 1st 90 day report if I apply for it at Division 1 or go to the British Embassy for an affirmation letter of my residence, which I have also read that they no longer do 🤷 I have a 12 month lease agreement and an online registered TM30 from my landlord, so my question is what is the best way forward with out having to wait 90 days to do a report when I will be travelling to Bali for an 8 day holiday and that will reset the 90 day reporting clock back to zero any help would be greatly appreciated
