cogginsj83 Posted March 20, 2009 Share Posted March 20, 2009 Hello, Before traveling here to Thailand, I received a two-entry tourist visa in my passport from the US. Do I need to cross the border to re-enter or can I just stay since it allows me another 60-days after the first one expires? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
InterestedObserver Posted March 20, 2009 Share Posted March 20, 2009 You must cross the border and re-enter to activate your second stay. Note: Each stay can be extended by 30 days at immigration. So you can get a maximum stay of 60+30 days plus 60+30 days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks so much for your reply. J Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lopburi3 Posted March 21, 2009 Share Posted March 21, 2009 But if you extend for 30 days and your visa is only valid for 3 months from date of entry (check it) be sure you make your next exit/entry before the visa expiration date (not your new permitted to stay until date) if it is earlier.
