When Does the 6 Month METV Start: From Issue Date or Entry Date?

David ***********

As above. 6 months starts from when issued. However you only have to re enter in those 6 months to get a further 60 days, you dont have to leave at the end of the 6 months

Can I Get a 30-Day Extension on My Tourist Visa in Thailand?

David ***********

Land or air border will get you 60 days but you cant get 32 days at immigration only 30 days and that would then end that visa so youd need a new visa thereafter to re enter

Can I board my flight to Thailand with a 30-day extension if I buy a single ticket out of the country?

David ***********

Many airlines wont let you board at departure airport if you dont have a departing flight booked before the 30 days is up. At heathrow they always check that i have. Why npt get a visa before you go. Not difficult i wouldnt have thought

Do I need a 60-day visa or can I use a 30-day visa with a border run for my trip to Thailand?

David ***********

Bobbi Samui i travel to and from phuket twice a year for 12 years. As soon as i check in with a ticket with a stay of more than 30 days, they always want to see my visa. And ive travelled with 10+ different airlines in that time too so its not an airline thing

Do I need a 60-day visa or can I use a 30-day visa with a border run for my trip to Thailand?

David ***********

As above. At uk check in desk they will want to see a visa for 33 days in thailand before they will let you fly. A ticket to cambodia mid vacation wont be enough as you may not use it. Id call your airline to save trouble at checkin or get a 60 day visa inline. Very easy to do

Do I need to carry cash when entering Thailand on a non-immigrant O visa?

David ***********

I think technically you should have a min of 10k thb. I have never done this when flying from the uk but do do it when i do a visa run. To be fair, in 12 years ive never once been asked for it
