It might be because you may be mixing those two, visa-exempt and visa on arrival.

US passport holders enter Thailand on visa-exempt (without any fee or application to enter Thailand). It is eligible for 30 days tourism extension once for 1900 baht fee.

Visa On Arrival (you pay 2000 baht fee to apply for VOA to enter Thailand at the entry point) is not available to US citizens. If someone (with one of 17 nationalities eligible for VOA) enters on VOA, it's not eligible for tourism extension and can get 7-days-to-leave-the-kingdom stamp for 1900 baht.

Go to the 90 day reporting website.

There is a kind of use's guide available from the link at the bottom of the login window. (a bit of old, but main ops are covered)

You need to register your account first.



usually you can do 90-days report online when you move inside the same province. You can check with your new local immigration office for their policy. You have online reporting window from 15 days before and until the due date. You also have 7 days after for reporting in person. So you can try online first to see whether your report is approved. If rejected. go in person, you still have time.

You can change your travel schedule no problem once you get your visa, as long as you enter Thailand within visa validity.

@Andrew ********

, you will be stamped in for 60 days when enter Thailand using a Tourist Visa and it's eligible for 30 days tourism extension once per entry. it depends on your embassy whether they accept an outbound ticket after 60 days (that is your visa allows in the first place) or not. Check with them. Please make your own post if you have any further questions.

@Wannikea ********

, thanks, it's Ranong, not Raynong ;)

Q. - Everytime I enter thailand do I need to show them the e-visa print out? or when I stamp in the first time they also make a multiple entry permit?

-> you are supposed to show eVisa PDF on paper every time you enter Thailand on it. Your “multiple entry permit” is on your eVisa, not on your passport

Q.- am I correct that the latest date I can enter the kingdom is the 15th November?

-> right. 15 Nov is the last day you can enter on it to be stamped in for another 60 days

Q.- Finally which land borders are open to do a quick visa bounce.

-> check again when you need to do. Currently, land borders between Myanmar (except ranong) are not open to foreigners. But details about border bounce are out of the scope of this group.

@Ja***

, as a rule, yes.

@จอห์นนี่ ******

, depends on which gate you go through. If you go through Gate 2, you will go to passport control after you get a re-entry stamp. The re-entry permit counter itself wouldn't give you anything other than a re-entry permit stamp.

If you go through another gate, you tell the officer you need a re-entry permit, you will be stamped out, and then you have to go to the re-entry permit counter all the way to gate 2 from the air side. in this case, you already have a departure stamp before the re-entry permit.

@Neale *****

, that's what I said, also in the sheet.

If you let them do photos, copies, and the form, you pay the official fee + 200 baht. If you have everything, you pay only the official fee, 1000 baht for a single re-entry permit or 3800 baht for a multiple re-entry permit.

You need to bring only your passport, then pay a +200 baht service charge and they will do the form, copies and photos. Or you bring the necessary documents including the filled form with a photo glued, you pay only the official fee.
