You can't come and go indefinitely without a visa. If you're spending more time in Thailand than out, you'll need a visa.

@Jim *********

Is it? Didn't know that.

@Neil *******

Same as mine (although issued in Thailand). Expires when my national DL expires. Otherwise, valid up to 3 years.

@John ******

Interesting. Yeah, I last accompanied someone to apply for a Thai visa in Phnom Penh back in 2016 and last applied there myself some years before that. I remember it was always around 4-5 days, but that meant that if you applied on Monday, you could expect your visa no later than Friday (not the following Monday).

It was never an embassy with a short processing time.

Yangon is also going online. No date given yet, but looks like before the end of the year (according to a FB post from back in July).

@Andi **********

Yes and Laos will be next. No date given yet, but possibly in December.

@Romain ***

Well, ALL consulates that allow you to apply in person will only take your money if your application is successful, thus I'm right.

@Andy ***********

Sorry, I was referring to the 1 year visas you get outside the country. If you're on an annual extension of stay (either non-O or non-B) travel outside the country isn't required.

@Andy ***********

I meant if you were already living in Isarn. Another example would have been northern Thailand.

A DTV is better than a non-O or non-B multiple entry visa because it requires less frequent travel.

@John ******

Strange, because back in 2016, Phnom Penh had a 4 day processing period (which could sometimes be reduced down to around 3 days if using an agent). I didn't know they ever had a 2 day processing time.
