okay, so your next entry is after you maxxed out the visa-exempt 60 days with a 30 days extension, or just exited Thailand before the 60 days were up? In the later case, You have a chance getting stamped in for 60 days, again, at the Chong Chom border, which is known to be a very relaxed border crossing. But feel warned, for the future, get the correct visa if you want to stay for 6 months, get the multi entry 6-months tourist visa in the country were you are resident (i.e. Home country) because this is the only place where you can apply for it. In all other countries you can only apply for the single entry 60-days tourist visa

Flo Pete Peters . . if you have already been pulled aside twice, you can rest aussure that you have been "flagged" in Immigration's central computer system. You are at HIGH risk being denied entry. Have a plan B

@James *******

something is not right here. His profile shows he has just visited Thailand recently, 2 weeks ago . . he is trying consecutive entries, with or without a visa, doesn't matter if he has already maxxed out 6 months

@Manu *******

. . "until June" or "since June 2024" ?? 🧐. . . .something is not right with your reply! . . . . . . how come your profile shows that you have just been in Thailand and Bangkok two weeks ago? 🤓 If you have done a few consecutive visa-exempt stays in Thailand between June 2024 and today, maxxing out each visa-exempt entry, you should SERIOUSLY consider use the Chong Chom land border, because if you get denied entry into Thailand, you at least can fly back to Germany starting out of Phnom Penh by air . . . .

@Jim *******

this takes your total score to TWO wrong claims 🙂

@Jim *******

sorry, but you are WRONG, on the next issue, too 😃 . . . . While your foreign license plus the IDP is valid for up to one year after arrival, many car insurance policies become void if you're still driving on a foreign license after three months %EF%BB%BFImportant%20Notes%20for%20Tourists%3A&text=While%20your%20foreign%20license%20or,foreign%20license%20after%20three%20months.

@Jim *******

well if a DTV holder needs any service from Immigration, like a "certificate of residence" in order to apply for a driver's license after having stayed in Thailand longer than three months, which would make their IDP obsolete, they will get fined 2000.- THB if not having complied with the 90-days report rule (they could still do it in person on Immigration up to 7 days after due date)

You are wrong when you wrote

“it depends. My OA, re-entry is good for 1 year upon entry. That would be 365 days past my visa if I re-entered on the last day of my visa”

This part of your post is wrong: “re-entry is good for 1 year upon entry. That would be 365 days past my visa”

No, the re-entry is NOT good for one year

It is only good for the time left of your visa validity, which can never correspond to the same day of you have entered Thailand

@Vin ********

That’s not really 100% how a Non-Imm-O/A visa works

The visa has a validity of ONE YEAR from the date it is issued.

The visa comes with a multi re-entry permit included, which is valid for the duration of the visa validity

*** when you enter, you will get stamped in for 365 days

Now, given you waited 4 weeks after the visa got issued, before you flew to Thailand, the remaining visa validity will be 11 months from the day you entered, and the remaining validity of the multi re-entry permit will also be only 11 months.

*** if you fail to exit and re-enter before the visa validity expires, you can only stay until the date that you got stamped upon the entry

You only get stamped into the “second year stay permit” of a Non-O/A visa, if you exit and re-enter before the visa expires, but you won’t have a re-entry permit any more after the expiry of the visa validity
