Hello all,

I’ve checked the group before penning this message but to no avail; in a slight pickle. Thanks in advance for any help or insight.

I had applied (successfully) and obtained an e-visa, running to 20th March 2025. I showed this to immigration at Krabi on arrival and all was well/approved. However, my friend whom has just arrived (with the same longevity of successful visa), warned me to check the stamp listed in my passport, that was added by immigration, as he’d heard a couple of horror stories and it seems his stamp is only valid for 60 days.

Now checking, the stamp in my passport, reflects that it’s “valid until” the 2nd December, I.e only 60 days.

With this context, the question is, as presumably immigration will go by the stamp over any e-visa or QR code I share, how can I remedy this? Is it as simple as an immigration office or returning back to the airport for them to “override” or re-stamp my passport with the correct, deferred date?

Sorry if this had been posted before. Feeling a bit anxious. Any help is hugely hugely appreciated 🙏🙏

Hello all,

My 5 years "elite" visa runs out in six months. Due to covid, I was offered a free six months extension. But they cannot process that in Krabi. According to Thai Elite I will have to fly to BKK to get that extension. Seems like a bit of pain for only 6 months extension. I purchased my current visa when I was 48. Now I am 53 and I can apply for a retirement visa instead. Canadian. Thai bank account balance not an issue. My wife has the same visa. The plan is to have her tag onto my retirement visa.

Only two questions, please. 1- Will wee need to leave the country and come back? 2- Any advice on how to get this done smoothly?

Thank you.

Hi all!

Currently I have Non-Immigrant Visa "O", registered in Krabi. However, I want to fly out from Bangkok to another country.

It is my first time asking for a re-entry permit, and I do have some questions about it.

As I understood from immigration, if I am flying out not in Krabi, I can ask the re-entry permit at the airport in Bangkok. (BKK)

- Where in the airport can this re-entry permit be obtained?

- Are they open every day? What are the opening hours?

- How long does it take at the airport? As I will have a few hours of time between the flights.

- If I would ask the re-entry permit in Krabi a few days ahead of flying out of the country in Bangkok, would that be a problem?

TIA! 🙏🏽

Hello i have some questions about the visa run and visa extension and i hope you can help☺️

I live in Thailand and im from denmark. 2 months ago i went to Malaysia and got extended for 1 month, then 1 month ago i went to krabi to extend again for 1 month. Now i have to extend again before the 4 th. So do you guys know if i can extend again in krabi? Or do i have to leave the Country?

I read somewhere online that you can extend again and get 7 days, but im not sure about the rules.

Thankyou🌸

Just for info. We arrived in Thailand on a 60 day tourist visa (UK). This is due to run out early January. We thought about a border hop, but as we'll be on the islands not so easy or cheap.

Anyway, went to krabi immigration today and they extended 30 days from the January expiry date. Cost 1900tbh each, need a copy of passport and photo but that can be done there, I'm not sure if it was 20tbh for copy or 100tbh for both ( we had ours already)

Easy system, today was a busy day after weekend and holiday sl took us 3 hours but usually 30 minutes wait. Be aware its cash only too.

Hope it helps.

I have a retirement visa in its first year renewing in Krabi by 18th February 2024.

I have a multiple re entry permit also expiring 18 Feb 24.

Krabi immigration all good with renewel based on 65,000 a month into my Thai bank account. They said come in a week or so before.

However I fly to Oz in December returning 7th Feb, about two weeks prior to renewel of my retirement visa.

What are immigration on my arrival airport (probably Phuket) going to stamp me in as? If 30 day visa exempt will that override my retirement visa and invalidate my renewel?

Ideally I’d re-enter on remaining retirement visa and renew within a few days.

Any advice?

90 Day report at Krabi Immigration today.

Absolutely amazing.

Got there at 12:30 however they were at lunch from 12 to 1. Got my ticket to be served ready for when they reopen, sat for about 5 minutes with ticket in hand when the officer came out and asked me what I required. I told her 90 day report explaining that I realized it was her break and I am happy to wait, no problem just step up to the counter now to be done straight away and a few minutes later out the door back on the way home. Great customer service!
