Re entered back to Thailand with work permit. But I have a flight tomorrow again to another country.

My work permit cancelled before, still they gave me until end of my visa. Will I have any problem if I leave Thailand tomorrow? Thanks indeed.

Maybe a silly question but I’m kind of stumped here. How do I prove my current address? I’ve been in SEA for the past 6 months just hopping around on tourist visas. Came home to apply for the DTV. No passport stamp on entry to the UK, I don’t drive, living at home with parents before I left for Asia so no utility bills. I can submit a bank statement but it hardly proves I’m actively in the UK. I have flight info back to the UK and a physical boarding pass, is this sufficient? Any other suggestions? Thank you in advance.

Today I received my 90 day O-visa from the uk thai embassy, it’s valid from 25th November 2025 until 22nd February 2026, Question is, do I use it on arrival on 1st December 2025 and let it run for 90 days, and before the 90 days is up extend it by 30 days (if possible),.Or do I enter on a visa exempt 60 days, extend that by 30 days and then exit thailand by land or air and come back in and using my 90 day O-visa ? Obviously before the 22nd February visa expiry,. Just looking for advice to get the maximum amount of days in thailand legally, I don’t really want to go down the border bounce route because of recent clamp downs,. I’ve acquired the O-visa with the 65000 bht per month income method, I don’t have the 800000 bht to put in thai bank,(I don’t have a Thai bank account either) also I’m not really prepared to have my account frozen if I do manage to get 800000 bht. TIA for responses,.

Good morning!

I live in Hua Hin for 6 month with a METV and has to leave the country every 2 month. This is clear?

Do I need a reentry permit any time with this visa?

Thank you.

Hello all 🙏. I need some visa advice. I have a question on the 60 days visa. If I go into Thailand on 20 Dec 2025 and stay for about 40 days. I leave after that via my return flight to my own country to stay for 14 days than I return back to Thailand to stay for another 40 days in the kingdom. is that considered a border run to the immigration of Thailand? Will immigration officers refuse my entry into the kingdom? TYIA for any advice given. 🙏

Hey all, I’m heading to Hanoi on Monday and was hoping to find out if bank statements can be a few days old by the time I submit them? I prepared all my documents last night hoping that I can send them in soon after I land in Vietnam.

Appreciate any help, thank you ~

Hi everyone, I have a question regarding the DTV visa and would really appreciate your input.

I’m working with an agent and all my documents have already been approved by their legal department. I just want to clarify one thing before applying:

My stay history in Thailand:

• Entered Thailand in July

• Stayed 2 months + 30-day extension

• Then did my first visa run

• My current visa ends on the 6th

All of this was before the new rules that started in November.

My question:

With the new restrictions and stricter entry rules, could my stay history cause any issues when applying for the DTV or when entering Thailand again after I receive it?

Would appreciate insights from anyone with experience. Thanks! 🙏

I visited back in January 11th for 7 weeks on visa exempt, then returned again mid May for 16 days then again mid September for another 16 days which on that occasion was asked how long would I be in thailand for by the IO, would it be fair to assume I'll be pulled aside or even denied entry if I was to return on the 9th December for 56 days? Any opinions guys as I'm seriously thinking of leaving it till January instead..

Hi everyone,

Has anyone done a same-day border run in the last day or two?

I have a METV and I’m scheduled to go with Chiang Mai Border Run tomorrow, but they just notified me that their “collaborating immigration officer” won’t be on duty, so same-day re-entry isn’t guaranteed at the moment due to the unstable immigration rules.

I’m concerned because I’m not prepared for a 2-night stay, and my current extension is only valid until 11/26. Any recent experiences or advice would be really appreciated.

Thank you!
