Entering Thailand as a tourist twice a year and volunteer visa

[cecilia83]

Hello everybody! 

I have a doubt.. as I am Italian I can enter in Thailand twice a year for 60 days each time without having to apply for a visa.

I already entered in November 2024 until January 2025 and in March 2025 until April 2025.

Do I still have a an entrance in 2025 or the first one is considered as a 2025 entrance, as I left in January 2025?

Then I will have to apply for a volunteer visa once I'm there, is the process smooth? As anybody done it? Thanks a lot for your help!

There is no stated limit on number of entries visa exempt.

You mention twice a year.

Thinking you somehow referring to visa exempt entry via land borders.

That previously had a limit of 2 entries per calendar year.

That is no longer the case.

 

You mention volunteer visa.

What's the plan here?

If it's ongoing living in Thailand there may be a better option eg DTV.

 

If you desire a stay of say 9 months you could consider a METV. That would  need to be applied for in passport country.

If over 50 you have another option.
