Hi All,

I'm still staying in Vietnam now and planning to come back to Thailand via Laos by land

sometimes next month.

I've heard loads of people talking about when the period you're allowed to entry the Kingdom

on VE will be reduced back to 30 days from 60 days for some nationals, which I actually am not

really concerned about. What I am very much concerned about is if you're still allowed to enter

the country on VE only twice per calendar.

As for my travel history, I went back to Thailand last April for just 4 weeks on VE, and if I do again

next month and that for 2-3 weeks, will I still be allowed to do it again (probably 2-3 weeks) later

this year or not?

As for those who are coming to Vietnam, it's been reported that you haven't yet had to submit

the health declaration before enterying the country.

Thank you for your time.

There was never a blanket 2 times per year rule. There was a 2 times per calendar year at a land border rule, but no limit by air.

When visa exempt changed to 60 days, that rule was removed as well.

Now, just because there is no limit, does not mean it is unlimited. Every entry is at the discretion of the immigration officer, who will be reviewing your past 12-18 months of entries and time spent in Thailand. If the officer believes it is excessive, or that your patterns do not match that of a legitimate tourist, they are likely to give you problems. This is up to and including denied entry. If the trip in April is the only time you've been in Thailand within the last 12 months, you should be fine.

I did enter Thailand by land last April and am going to go back there by land again, too.

I'm wondering if I could go back there by land again at the 3rd time this calendar year.

You mention the future trips perhaps 3 weeks each.

You won't have an issue
