wayned Posted November 22, 2012 Share Posted November 22, 2012 Visa exempt entries are free. You get 30 days by air, 15 days by land. You must get a tourist visa at an embassy in a neighboring country. Currently 3 month double entry visas are available. 1000 baht per entry. If you travel to a foreign country to obtain a new visa exempt entry or tourist visa, you must purchase a visa to that country. Currently Laos - $35, Cambodia - $20, Myanmar - 500 baht, Malaysia - free. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lite Beer Posted November 22, 2012 Share Posted November 22, 2012 Yes a Visa on Arrival costs 1,000 Baht and gives a stay of 15 days. But somehow I think that you are not asking about Visas on Arrival Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

harleyclarkey Posted November 22, 2012 Author Share Posted November 22, 2012 PS....can she enter 3 times within a month? Once into Thailand ...once back from Cambodia and once more from Myanmar. I am always confused with the entry requirements for Thailand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lopburi3 Posted November 22, 2012 Share Posted November 22, 2012 Not sure where you see that as 1,900 baht is the fee for extensions of stay using TM.7 forms. The fee is still listed as 1,000 baht on MFA website as below. http://www.mfa.go.th...on-Arrival.html Also see it is the normal immigrant visa fee from Immigration but that is not a visa on arrival for tourists as you are asking about.

Mario2008 Posted November 22, 2012 Share Posted November 22, 2012 Visa on arrival is only good for 15 days, for a longer stay she will need a tourist visa. But for the visa on arrival she will also need to show a ticket out of Thailand within 15 days or the airline might not take her with them. In addition, she can only use designated borders, not every border will do for a vissa on arrival. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The last time she got the VOA they asked to see her tickets but didn't notice that they were actually copies of my e-tickets! She had forgotten hers in her luggage!

ubonjoe Posted November 23, 2012 Share Posted November 23, 2012 It would be much better to get a tourist visa before traveling. It will be 1000 baht for each entry on a VOA that only gives a 15 day entry. A single entry tourist visa still would be much less costly. Also there is no VOA available at border with Cambodia. The only border crossing with VOA's are with Malaysia. If flying in it would not be a problem from any country. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't understand, how 35e touristvisa would be much less costly than 1000baht VOA? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ubonjoe Posted November 23, 2012 Share Posted November 23, 2012 Not if you are making trips out and back just to get the 15 days. A tourist visa would be good for 60 days. For 1000 baht (multiple 3800) a re-entry permit from immigration would keep the remainder of the original 60 day entry valid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ubonjoe Posted November 23, 2012 Share Posted November 23, 2012 (edited) Revision to previous post. There are VOA's available now for Laos at Nong Kai and Chiang Rai for Myanmar. It is up to the OP as to what he thinks is best. But if it was me I might pay the extra to get tourist visa entries to save time on entry and possibly a ticket out of the country for each VOA entry.
