yeahbutif Posted April 28, 2021 Share Posted April 28, 2021 If I have a current valid extension with a permit of entry to enter Thailand? Will I be allowed to enter Thailand on a 45 day visa exempt? the reason for this that I thinking of going back Uk and then return to Thailand on the visa exempt option as it looks like I would only need to get covid insurance cover for the 45 days stay about 5,000Bhat .. And would not require health insurance. If I enter on this could I then revert back to my retirement extension when here? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ubonjoe Posted April 28, 2021 Share Posted April 28, 2021 If you were lucky enough to be allowed to enter visa exempt you would not be able to change back to extension based upon retirement without leaving and re-enter the country. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yeahbutif Posted April 28, 2021 Author Share Posted April 28, 2021 So if the borders we're open ? could I do a border run ? To extended my 45 days? Or if they are closed, would immigration give me extension? Or would I have to return to UK... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
at15 Posted April 28, 2021 Share Posted April 28, 2021 If you can come in visa exempt and need to run to another country there are some options. Sri Lanka, Nepal, Pakistan, Bangladesh, Dubai are open. Nepal, Pakistan, and Dubai are the ones without quarantine. While it is a huge hassle its certainly possible if you have the money.

DrJack54 Posted April 28, 2021 Share Posted April 28, 2021 OP, your living up to your username. Not good plan even if it could work. You have a reentry permit and the immigration officer will notice it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Hammer2021 Posted April 28, 2021 Share Posted April 28, 2021 In the UK you will be required to quarantine and test. You can only leave if you have the a valid reason to leave the UK. You will need to quarantine here...Anyway..get your insurance here before you go...BTW Someone recently claimed to be returning to UK on another Thread to get a jab in Preston but I never believed the post and it has since gone dead...Further more...once you get back to UK there is no reason to return here anymore...unlike last year the UK is preferable to here Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's the absence of a re-entry permit that would cause a problem. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The officer will notice it and stamp him in till the same date on his re-entry permit 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
