Hi, any chance the Immigration office at Chang Wattana is open on Tues 29/05 Public holiday? 

Thanks. I'll be here until August when i return to the UK and i'll get a visa, if i want to return.

Cheers

Okay, thanks for the reply. So i can go to Chang Wattana and extend a 30 day entry stamp as many times as i want? Or am i missing something there?

Cheers

Hi,

i'm a Brit who's entered Thailand on entry stamps (flew in) on three occasions and i extended a 30 day entry stamp at Chang Wattana on one occasion. 

I understand that a 30 entry stamp can be extended twice a year? What are the rules (number of times) for entering by plane and crossing at a land border? 

Cheers for any replies

Flying out with <1 day overstay, no fine, but a note in your passport that you overstayed by less than 24 hours (departing by air only, land borders charge from day 1).

 

Been that way since pretty well forever.

 

Should have no effect on any future entries or visas.

Thanks a lot. Planning to fly back in on Monday and thought i’d double check before getting on the plane. ? 

Hi,

i’m a Brit and flew out of Don Muang Airport. I overstayed a 30 day Permission to stay stamp by 9 hours (one day)

Before Immigration would simply charge 500THB and let you go on your merry way. I wasn’t charged the 500THB, which I thought was a result but noticed they had written something next to the stamp in my passport. (Attached, to the left)

Anyone know what it means? And has there been some changes in the rules?

thanks for any help

As i thought, thanks

Hi,

i'm due to visit Immigration at Chaengwattana on Mon. to extend a 30 day entry stamp. I'm sure i can but just want to double check that i can get photocopies of my passport and departure card done there at immigration? 

Thanks for any info

...just to muddy the waters, i don't have a visa and i flew LON-BKK (via MUM) with Jet Airways a month ago on a single ticket. I didn't have an onward flight. No questions were asked.

I should mention that i got to checkin as soon as it opened and was prepared to by a cheap onward flight airasia.com should i have been refused boarding 

Thanks for the info

Thanks for the reply. Are you saying that a 30  day entry stamp can be extended for 30 days? I didn't think the was possible

Hi, can anyone help with me?

I'm a Brit and i entered through Suvarnabhumi airport on 26/02/18 on a 30 day entry stamp. I now want to stay in Thailand for a further 5 months (end August)

I've been searching through my options on Thaivisa for obtaining a Multiple Entry Tourist Visa in a neighbouring country but there are many and some a bit confusing. I don't mind doing an overland if it's cheaper and really worth it.

Does anyone have their favourite routes/solutions they wouldn't mind sharing?

Thanks for any help

The Thai Consulate in Birmingham is closed ! 

..i've bought a return ticket BKK-SGN so the problem is now solved. A 'quickie' tourist visa can also be had at the embassy (consulate?) in Birmingham, within half an hour.

Thanks for all the input 

Hi,

i'm a Brit and bought a return ticket from London to BKK Arr. 04/10/16 dept. 01/04/17. I'm flying Gulf Air and was planning on getting a 30 day permission to stay stamp at the airport

What are my chances of running into problems with the airline? 

Anyone have any experience?

Thanks

Hi, with all the turmoil going on and reports that some of the protest sites having being dismantled, where's the nearest/best place to get an extension to a tourist visa for a Brit.? I live at Fortune Town/Rama 9 MRT

Is Imperial World, Ladprao the best option for me? How far is it from the Ladprao MRT, is it too far to walk? I've looked at maps but difficult to judge.

Thanks for any info

I need to send a letter to the UK but don't really want to use a courier company.

Can anyone tell me how the post is working during the present political crisis?

Usually takes a couple of weeks to UK, first class.

Cheers for any info.

Hi, anyone know how it's done? I have heard it's possible to do free of charge.

When i try to use BBC's website for example i'm told it's not available in my region.

Cheers for any info

It's possible to fly to Trat. Then how long connection to the pier for boat and trip to Koh Kood?

Cheers

Hi,

I'm looking for a getaway vacation from Bangkok and someone suggested to me Koh Kood.

My wish list is:

A beautiful island and beaches with some good diving and snorkeling

Peace and quiet with a little night life but definitely not too many tourists

Not too difficult to get to from Bangkok

How does Koh Kood measure up? Anyone been? What's your impression?

Cheers for any info

Okay, thanks for the replies. I will give them and go and post back...

Hi,

i get this pop up which appears at the bottom of the screen when i'm browsing. I also get diverted to web advertising pages, very annoying. I've switched on 'Pop Up Blocker' but it makes no difference.

Any ideas?

Well, i passed through Suvarnabhumi at 04:45 without any problems. I was simply taken to the desk behind immigration, asked very politely to pay 1,500 bht for 3 days overstay. They even apologized for the 5 minute wait to complete the paper work!
