fr33space Posted September 5, 2008 Share Posted September 5, 2008 Hello, if anyone could help out with the logic (or illogic) regarding the 'triple entries' of the triple entry tourist visa, it would be much appreciated. Mainly - how long do each of the triple entries last; how do I activate the new entry; and, what cost is involved? To break it down ... I entered the kingdom on a triple entry tourist visa in July. It will expire in January. When I entered in July, the immi officer wrote "Sep 9" on the little square box. So, from what I've gathered, this means on Sep 9, I go down to the Immigration Bureau and extend it for 30 days (at 1900 baht)? If so, I'm a bit confused about what to do after that next 30 days. Do I just cross a border, and then the next tourist visa is recativated? If so, will this next tourist visa also last for two months? I'm so glad these things are so straight forward - apologize for the ignorance, any help would be greatly appreciated ... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lopburi3 Posted September 5, 2008 Share Posted September 5, 2008 Yes that is how it works. Every tourist visa entry for you will be 60 days and you can extend each entry 30 days but you can not enter after the visa expiration date (six months from issue in your case). So if you want the 3rd entry it must be made before it expires. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dr_Pat_Pong Posted September 5, 2008 Share Posted September 5, 2008 Some of the career officer consulates only allow 3 months for the initial entry and any additional entries to be made Lop. MFA instructions now only allow 2 entries of a tourist visa to be issued, but it seems there are offices that will still issue three. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lopburi3 Posted September 5, 2008 Share Posted September 5, 2008 That was the reason for my qualifier "six months from issue in your case" as he had provided the dates. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
