My situation is a bit more complicated than most visitors, so I'm hoping someone can advise me on the best course of action I should take before coming to Phuket.
I'm an American living in St Petersburg Russia. I am planning on spending 2-3 months in Phuket.
It's my understanding that as an American, I don't need a visa, but my entry stamp only allows me to stay 30 days, after which I need to make a visa run every 15 days.
This sounds like a huge hassle. The Thai embassy site mentions there is a consulate in St Petersburg, but there is no info regarding visas on the site, so I'm not sure I can apply for a visa that will allow me to stay longer than 30 days via the consulate.
Can anyone advise me on what my best alternatives might be?
