I will be traveling to Thailand tomorrow and would like to know more about the "cumulative duration of stay of not exceeding 90 days within any 6-month period". I stayed in Thailand for 3 months using a 2 month tourist visa combined with a one month extension I got while I was in Thailand. Now two months later I will be traveling to Thailand again on a 30 day Tourist Visa Exemption stamp, and will extend my stay 15 days at a time using the border crossings. So that is more than 90 days in a 6 month period.

My question, does the 90 day in a 60 month period requirement apply to me, since I read from the Thai embassy that this is a requirement for "foreigners who enter the Kingdom under this Tourist Visa Exemption Scheme may re-enter and stay in Thailand for a cumulative duration of stay of not exceeding 90 days within any 6-month period from the date of first entry ". I however initially used a two month tourist visa and not a tourist visa exemption.

Please help as I will be traveling tomorrow! Thanks!

That provision has not been in effect since November, 2008 and as stated, the period of stay on a visa did not apply.

Thanks for the quick reply, I hope this is the case.

I worry because I read about this requirement on the Thai embassy in Washington web site under consular/visa service/FAQ (the first question and answer).

No need to worry.

there is no 90 in 180 clause in Thailand. There has not been for years.

Your best option if planning on staying more than 90 days is to get a visa before coming here.

As said that requirement went out of the window years ago.
