Can someone recommend me muay thai or cooking course for DTV?

A Muay Thai gym with several branches in Bangkok informed me that they do not issue supporting documents for the DTV visa for nationals from China, Hong Kong, Myanmar, or India.

Any suggestions are welcome and appreciated.

Hi, I want to travel to Japan but need a visa for it. According to Japan Embassy's website, I need to show proof of long term residency in Thailand and a tourist visa will not suffice. Any idea if they would accept DTV? My nationality is Indian if it helps.

Hi all!

I was told by agents that border bounce or visa run is not an option for Indians....can anyone confirm please?

Thanks

I am an Indian national, married to Thai wife. I entered Thailand through Bangkok airport immigrations on 60 days visa free entry. I am living in a village called Pasang, in Phayao District. My wife just called the Phayao Immigrations office to check about the additional 30 days extention, as we just had a baby girl 4 days ago. The immigration office straightaway refused. They say 30 days extension not available for Indian nationals, and that I should exit and re-enter to get another 60 days visa free entry. Is there any Indian national here who has received the 30 days extension..? The process is so confusing. Each immigration location tells a different story. Seems there are different rules for different nationalities. Wonder if they have a uniform process, or it works on their wimms & fancies..!!

Hello group members,

Need some advice regarding land border entry for tourism.

Nationality: Indian, eligible for 60 day visa free entry

1. Planning to fly in to BKK, travel to the north for 7 days (Chiang Mai-Chiang Rai) , cross-over to Laos, and take the boat to Luang Prabang, and spend 10 days in Laos.

2. Cross over to Thailand via Nong Khai border (avail visa free entry), travel Nong Khai to BKK , then take the bus from BKK to Siem Reap (Cambodia).

3. Stay in Cambodia for 10 days, crossover again to Thailand from Aranyaprathet, and fly back to India.

Key questions:

1. Is the visa free entry scheme for Indian citizens valid for these 2 border crossings- Nong Khai and Aranyaprathet. I have seen reports of some Indians being denied entry at Nong Khai and asked to fly from Vientiene to Bangkok instead.

2. Is there any restriction on the number of times a person can avail the visa free entry scheme, (i will be entering Thailand 3 times within a period of 30 days, before finally flying back to India)

3. Am i expected face any additional scrutiny or entry denial on account of my nationality, vs say a person from a first world country?

Kindly provide your inputs.

Warm Regards

Hello Everyone,

Good day!

I have a quick question regarding the visa exemption scheme for Indian and Kazakhstani nationals, which, as far as we know, is valid until November 11th. There's quite a bit of confusion surrounding this topic. I've even tried reaching out to the Tourism Authority of Thailand in New Delhi, but unfortunately, clarity seems hard to come by. I'm currently looking at two articles with differing information and am unsure which one to rely on.

One of the articles from Thai Embassy New Delhi says- The scheme is valid until Nov 11th 2024:

Though they don't have any recent update on their site

Other article from Tourism authority of Thailand, New Delhi states: [members only]

Any insights would be appreciated!

Hi, my husband and I are travelling to Thailand from India on 1st to 7th Oct. Pls guide on visa requirements we are confused. What all documents do we need to carry for smooth travel.

I am currently in Thailand on a 60-day tourist visa, issued as an Indian national with a visa sticker. I would like to inquire about the process for extending my stay. I have been informed that a 30-day extension is possible; however, I have also heard that in some cases, only a 7-day extension may be granted.

Could you kindly provide guidance on how I can apply for a 30-day extension of my current visa? Additionally, I would appreciate any advice on whether it is possible to obtain a new 60-day tourist visa from within Thailand, or if I would need to exit the country to apply for a new visa.

Thank you in advance for your assistance. I look forward to your response.

Guys, I want to stay in thai for 2 months. 1 month currently is free for Indians. 1 more month - can I renew in immigration or go to Laos and come back?

Or do I need to apply a 2 month visa from Delhi only?

I am an INDIAN national.

Thanks :)

I am an Indian, currently residing in US, and planning to visit Thailand in April. I know Indians have a 30-day visa exemption currently. I want to know can that be extended? If I want to be there for 37 days, what should I do? Request immigration officer?

Also, I will be staying in a monastery for 30 days. Do I need to book return ticket in advance of 30 days from the date of arrival in Thailand? Also, do I need to show the immigration officer anything about my stay?

Your advice is greatly appreciated 🙏
