I hope so! These forms are increasingly daunting - and I got into Thailand during Covid! Unvaxxed! (All declared and legitimate I hasten to add!)

@Marianne *******

I think you made a good call. I've got an overstay in my pp - not actually don to me but TIT. And I really don't want another - with all its implications.

@Brandon ***********

There are loads of deals to be had still.

@Paul ****************

I found a month to be a bit long. But up to two weeks is fine imo.

@Jeff ******

Well, I was in bed for 5 months following just such an accident this year so..

@Jeff ******

But not zero, as some in prison will tell you.

That's not actually true. Unbeknown to me, a CM immigration person failed to stamp the new visa date in my passport. When I got to BKK, all hell broke loose and I was shouted at and threatened. There was a distinct absence of a Thai smile. And I had the CM receipt etc. I got fined and an overstay stamped in my pp. On another occasion I went to Hong Kong. When I got into CM, I was told to get on a plane back to HK. The assumption was that I was working as I had so many stamps in my pp. I was not. They made it clear that I had to pay a bribe. There were 5 of them. And this has happened to many, many people. (The bribe they like is about 2000 I believe. I didn't know that as I've never had to pay a bribe in my life and so ended up paying 4.

Embassy's website has all the requisite information.

Still OK for me at least it seems:

'From 1 October 2022 to 31 March 2023, British passport holders arriving by air or land can enter Thailand for 45days without a visa (a ‘visa exemption’).'

@John *********

Oh, I thought we still got 45 days. Arghh - arriving soon!
