30 Day On Arrival

[Murph]

I am now working in asia and have the opportunity to spend about 2 months in Thailand. I have not applied for a tourist visa, but I was wondering if the following scenario is okay with Thai immigration. Fly into Bangkok on 19 June, leave on business for a week on 26 June, return to Bangkok on 2 July, leave again for 2 or 3 days in late July and then return to Bangkok until 17 August. Am I able to get three 30 Day on Arrival visas with this scenario?

Yes, should not be a problem. What is your nationality?

If should not be a problem IF you have onward flight tickets in hand when you check in for your flight here. Many airlines check that you have a departure flight within the 30 day allowed period of stay if you do not have a visa in your passport.
