Help: Total Number Of Days Allowed To Say In Thailand In A 1 Year Period?

[nyujay2010]

Hello All,

What is the total amount of days allowed to stay in Thailand in a one year period between tourist visas, extensions, and 30-day stamps? AND, is it within a calendar year or 365 days from first entry?

For me, I received a tourist visa (in Laos) back in September 2010 and then extended it 1 month. I then went to the U.S. for a couple of months and returned to Thailand in February 2011 with another tourist visa (in U.S.), and the 1-month extension expires today!

Thanks in advance for your response!

Jay

There is no such regulation - it was dropped several years ago. But many Consulates will not issue more than two or three tourist visas now.

thanks for the reply. so i can get a 30-day stamp (at the airport, returning flight) and shouldn't be a problem?

Correct visa exempt still 30 days by air but only 15 days by land for most countries.
