hayden5650 Posted May 29, 2010 Share Posted May 29, 2010 Hi all. I am 22 years old and from New Zealand. I arrived in Thailand 2 weeks ago, and being from New Zealand am allowed 30 days without a visa. However I am wanting to stay for 90 days, am I able to apply for a Tourist visa while I am here? Is this complicated or costly? And can I do it at my embassy? I realise these questions have probably been answered many times on here, however I am using an internet cafe and only have limited time in which to read through older posts. Thankyou, Hayden.

Lite Beer Posted May 29, 2010 Share Posted May 29, 2010 A Tourist Visa can be obtained from Thai Consulates in neighbouring countries. Not the NZ Embassy in Bangkok. They are free of charge and give 60 days. That can be extended by a further 30 days at Immigration for a fee of 1,900 Baht. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sunbelt Asia Posted May 30, 2010 Share Posted May 30, 2010 Sorry, but you will have to leave the country to obtain a tourist visa. The most popular choice these days in Vientiane, Laos (where you can get a double-entry visa that can last you 6 months) free. If you simply need just one entry (up to 90 days with extension) then any of the regional consulates/embassies will be fine.

When you say any of the regional consulates/embassies, do you mean I can go to my own embassy in Bangkok, or do you mean any Thai embassy abroad? Thankyou very much for your advice, Hayden.

Lite Beer Posted May 31, 2010 Share Posted May 31, 2010 Any Thai Consulate in another country will issue a Tourist Visa. Free of charge. This will give 60 days and can be extended at Immigration in Thailand for a further 30 days. 1,900 Baht. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

By that, we mean any Thai Embassy or Consulate around the world. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
