Hi all,

I need some expert advise regarding my return to Thailand soon.

I have been staying in TH doing border runs for the last year. I have read about the new visa rules, but its confusing. I am currently in Vietnam. On the 22/3 i hope to fly home to BKK from Korea. If i at that time check the days i have in TH in my (Finland) passport going back 180 days, it adds up to 69 days in TH. I entered TH in the end of Oct -06 got 30 days on arrival and did 2 visaruns before leaving on 2 Jan -07.

So: Can i fly straight back to BKK in march, and get 21 days stamp on arrival? That would be great, cos then i could do a tourist visa trip to Laos and get 60 day visa. Or do i have to fly via Singapore and get a tourist visa from there?

Hope to hear from someone who knows more about this than me...

Many thanks in advance!!

Theoretically, yes. But please see this topic.

My suggestion: get a tourist visa from a Thai consulate.

I suppose you've left it too late to get a visa in Vietnam which would be best but you should be OK for 21 days on arrival.

Thanks.....

Naaah, i'm still in Viet, but far out in the countryside, have no idea where the embassy is etc. So i have no time to get it from here. Have done other visas in SIN, so better go there, seems easiest for me.

Thanks for your help guys!
