kind of important though, that extra 180 days - an additional 66% longer stay

wrong. He can stay upto 270 if used to its full potential.

@Christopher ************
we can all read. But you still dont know the answer. As other replies outline, the correct answer is 270 days. What were you saying about name tags ? 😜

@Rick *******
maybe you shouldn't be allowed out without your parents, and definitely shouldn't be giving incorrect answers on fb. Its 270 days, to those in the know.

what is printed is not the full story though. As you'll see on other replies, the maximum you can stay, if used to its full potential, is 270 days. So anyone saying "can't you read" or "it says it right there" or "60days" or "90days" are very wrong, and lacking in experience of maximising visas. If you haven't had this visa for the purpose of the maximum stay possible, or spent a year or two juggling visas when staying in Thailand, or read every post on this group for a year or two, you are not really qualified to answer. Just reading the visa gives a very partial answer, and if the OPs aim is the maximum possible stay, then 60 or 90 days is infact wrong. So we'll done for reading English and repeating it. Read other replies and you too can learn how to get the 270 days, and give more accurate answers. 👍

I don't think you can just get the extension to 90 days. You've entered on a 30day visa exemption, NOT your tourist visa. Did you show them your visa print out ? If you don't make them aware, they just give you 30 days visa exemption. You have to exit, and re-enter, making sure you tell them you have a tourist visa. And check the date stamp there and then, and get it amended there and then. I've heard of this situation a few times before.

@Martyn **********
with just a same-day border bounce/run, to allow a continued stay in Thailand. Its hardly 'leaving the country' is it ? The OP is clearly looking to stay the maximum possible, hence the question to more experienced folk. I'm sure he can read the "60 days" text.

it's a large jump, but I'm guessing UK immigration figured that at the lower end incomes, the girls disappear into the suburbs of Grimsby or Sheffield, never seen again, they got nothing to lose. The girls who's fellas on £36K+ incomes, aren't so willing to risk everything and they don't disappear and the fella sees them back onto the plane with promises of whatever makes them think its worth not doing a runner to go work in a fish and chip shop..
