I was looking at the HCM embassy - hanoi would be better for me anyway. Can I ask how long the process took from application to receiving the visa?

@Jess **************

thanks for advice - the thai embassy website says that I would have to apply from my home country as the UK isn't on the list of countries that can apply at the embassy?

How much are the fines? I was riding all over 7 years ago and never had any problems but being older and smarter this time round I'm in the same boat as you worried knowing insurance wouldn't cover me. Probably just going to stick to riding on islands with quieter roads. But does anyone know specifically what the repercussions may be if stopped? I hold a provisional UK licence which allows me to ride 125cc but your supposed to have a cbt too which I don't. And obviously no idp either.

how much is the fine?

thank you for the advice 🙏

thanks for your advice, regarding proof of onward travel, does it need to be a flight ticket? Would I be allowed in with booked onward travel for say a bus to vietnam / cambodia etc?

@Steve *******

thanks for clarifying much appreciated

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

if i was for example to arrive and do a 30 day visa exepmtion, extend for 30 days, travel to vietnam or a neighbouring country for a short period, arrive again on a visa exemption and again extend for 30 days and then leave... when would I be able to come back to thailand with an e-visa or other visa by plane? Thanks

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

unfortunately I've run out of time, the flight prices increase drastically in just under 2 weeks so I've left it too late to apply for the e-visa.

@Steve *******

hey Steve, I've noticed most places I have read information say only say you 'may' be approved for 30 day extension, is it at all likely they would not approve?
