METV and Visa exemption.

[swbaggies]

Hi

I have done some research online and I am looking for clarity of whether I am correct in my thinking if anyone can help.

I am a UK national and currently have a METV which I am using. My question is can i leave Thailand once my METV ends and then return the same day entering on a standard tourist visa exemption (30 days) and then extend this at my local immigration, giving me the 60 days?

Yes you can. 

 

Note that land entries using tourist visa exemption are limited to two per calendar year.

You can leave and re-enter to get a 30 day visa exempt entry. Then apply for a 30 day extension of it.

Are you aware you can get a new 60 day entry on or before the enter before date on your visa that can be extended for 30 days.

Thank you both.

UbonJoe, it may have been how i worded my initial post. I would of used my last METV entry so this is me leaving after the scenario you suggested above.

 

Thank you both once again.
