gotlost Posted February 21, 2011 Share Posted February 21, 2011 (edited) and it is not a visa on arrival it is a visa exempt entry for thirty days. Edited February 21, 2011 by gotlost Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lite Beer Posted February 21, 2011 Share Posted February 21, 2011 A U.S passport holder is not entitled to apply for a Visa on Arrival. They usually cost 1,000 Baht but are currently free. A U.S passport holder is entitled to a 30 day Visa Exempt entry stamp at no cost. Providing they have a ticket leaving Thailand within those 30 days.

Simple question, even silly. I asked because I have to make a visa run, and I'm comparing costs. Zero $, will do for me. Thank you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gosompoi Posted February 21, 2011 Share Posted February 21, 2011 If you arrive without a visa already then for free you get a 30 day stamp in your passport. Before you leave you can request a 60 day visa from your local thai consulate or embassy which currently is free except for postage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank you. just curious, to me it sounds like you're doing a visa run TO Thailand. Is that the case? Where are you coming from? Are you comparing the costs of airfares and visas to different countries? Like I said, and I know none of my business... Just curious Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, I'm doing a visa run TO Thailand. Sound odd? It is. I am teaching in Vietnam and there have been visa "changes" that started in September 2009. I have to do a visa run every 6 months to get a six month visa. But hey, "I'm taking a holiday from a holiday." But seriously, this will be a one day trip, this time. The RT flight will cost me about $200 USD. I have no choice, but to do this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lite Beer Posted February 22, 2011 Share Posted February 22, 2011 For what it is worth if entering Thailand by land you get 15 days. By air you get 30 days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wrong Turn Posted February 22, 2011 Author Share Posted February 22, 2011 For what it is worth if entering Thailand by land you get 15 days. By air you get 30 days. The problem is, the VN authorities have devised a scheme to make it a cost and a burden. For me the get this visa, (with a letter from immigration that I present at the VN airport) I have to enter into the airport. If I just went overland to LOS or anywhere, I would only get a 30 day VNese visa. Cheers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
