Tod Daniels when I search today for this month, still as low as 1,200. Using the App shows cheaper flights πŸ™‚

And if I’m travelling out I usually know 2-3 months ahead of time...so much cheaper when they have deals going πŸ™‚

Tod Daniels not sure where you get 15,000 Baht flights from???

I can fly most days from UTP to KUL for as low as 1,000 Baht

Majo Lacko ok just checking because the way you worded the post was a bit unclear - and some people overstay because they are confused between visa expiry and permitted to stay stamps :))

You do realise your visa only gives you 60 + 30 days to stay in Thailand, and then you have to leave Thailand and return, and you can get up to 9 months of you last enter just before it expires. You don’t get 6 months stay on the first entry!

Please make sure you get a letter from your school to cancel any extension of stay (based on your ED visa) and take it to immigration to cancel BEFORE you leave Thailand.

The extension of stay does not automatically cancel on your departure, and even though you may return on a new visa, when you next report to immigration for 90 days report or a further extension, they may notice your previous extension of stay was not cancelled, and fine you up to 20,000 Baht for overstaying.

Just get the school to date the cancelation for the day you plan to leave Thailand, as you have to leave that day.

I will let others address your original question πŸ™‚

Michael Hay II not correct, Bangkok allows extensions within 45 days, not 60 days (immediately as you say).

Lesley Smith when I returned from Australia recently they did want a new TM30 even for same address - so enforcement is not consistent evennis same office

Better to be safe than sorry...to avoid a potential fine

Honestly only takes about 5 minutes to lodge the TM30 anyway in Jomtien :))

I was there last week after returning from overseas to the same address - and needed to provide a new TM30

So I think it really depends on the IO you get...so they do enforce the rule of new TM30 on return within 24 hours - just not consistently

Lexi Sara yes you need to get a letter from your school stating to cancel the extension on the date you plan to leave Thailand, then take it to immigration to have it cancelled
