csaba81 Posted July 16, 2022 Share Posted July 16, 2022 Came to Thailand on 60 day tourist visa. Got 30-day extension which expires at the end of month. Can I get another month by doing a border run? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DrJack54 Posted July 16, 2022 Share Posted July 16, 2022 (edited) Yes. Also you can obtain a 30 day extension to that visa exempt entry. You can do 2 visa exempt via land per calendar year Edited July 16, 2022 by DrJack54 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes Malaysian folk do not have that limit as one example. Do I need qualify every post. The OP came on tourist visa. My guess he does have the limitation I indicated.. Perhaps he can clarify. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

timoti Posted July 18, 2022 Share Posted July 18, 2022 thx a lot. do you guys think it's feasible to get 4 months of visa this way, adding to my previous 2 month visa by plane (+1 extension inside)? I just don't know if they will create an issue for 6 months or so stay in a year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In reality there is no written rule limiting your stay to 6 months as a tourist. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just don't know if they will create an issue for 6 months or so stay in a year. Think best combo for the 6 month stay is... Obtain a tourist visa for first entry via air. Then obtain 30 day extension. That gives you ~90 days. Then do a border bounce with visa exempt entry plus 30 day extension. Repeat the border bounce with extention. All up ~7 months. A variation is to instead of the first border bounce obtain another tourist visa. Places such as Vientiane or even Saigon (for side holiday) good options. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Enter tourist visa + 30 day extension= approx 3 month. Obtain another tourist visa (eg Vientiane) + 30 day extension..... Approx 6 months all up. Visa exempt+ extension gives ~2 months. So TV with extention plus one border bounce plus extension only gives 5 months Edited July 18, 2022 by DrJack54 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
