Willbeam Posted October 31, 2023 Share Posted October 31, 2023 Hi, thanks in advance. In 12 days I fly from London to Kuala Lumpur and then an overnight layover before I fly to Bangkok. I have a Thai tourist visa but wanted to make sure I have no issues in Bangkok as I will have a visa stamp from Malaysia from my layover. Will my Thai tourist visa be valid even though I had layover in Kuala Lumpur? Thanks 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VinnieK Posted October 31, 2023 Share Posted October 31, 2023 Your visa won't be affected. I wonder why you have to go thru KL? Cheaper ticket or... ? 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes it's much cheaper to fly to KL from London. I think I saved 340. Then the flight was about 50 to Bkk. Almost get there same time too.

Pattaya57 Posted October 31, 2023 Share Posted October 31, 2023 Why would anyone with a valid Thai Tourist Visa have an issue because they stayed in Kuala Lumpur 1 night? Geez stay there a week if you like, add Manila and Singapore too. As long as you arrive in Thailand within the valid date of tourist Visa you will be fine no matter where you go beforehand (the flights you stated on TV application are not binding and can be changed after Visa issued) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CanadaSam Posted October 31, 2023 Share Posted October 31, 2023 You do realize that people from all over the world fly into Thailand from hundreds of different countries, right? Do you think anybody would or could dictate where they need to fly from, to enter Thailand on a valid visa? Enjoy your trip! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why does it matter. So many posters with paranoid fantasies that entering Kuala Lumpur will void a valid Thai visa. Where does this paranoia suggesting stay in transit area come from?
