delh Posted April 26, 2014 Share Posted April 26, 2014 I need to exit Thailand as part of my 60 day tourist visa by 30th April. After getting stamped out of Thailand, do I need to 'enter' another country, get a visa and passport stamp or can I simply do a u turn and re- enter Thailand please?

wayned Posted April 26, 2014 Share Posted April 26, 2014 You can extend your tourist visa for 30 days at immigration without exiting Thailand. TM7 form, 1 picture and 1900 baht. If you leave the country, you must enter a neighboring country before returning, immigration checks the stamps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jip99 Posted April 26, 2014 Share Posted April 26, 2014 What wayned said; but if you go to a border point it will cost circa 1,400 Baht for the visa and 'fine' for not staying in Cambodia for one day. This is based on figures at Chong Chom/Osmach. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ubonjoe Posted April 26, 2014 Share Posted April 26, 2014 As said you must enter Cambodia and return or immigration will not stamp you back into the country. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanyaburi Mac Posted April 26, 2014 Share Posted April 26, 2014 "I need to exit Thailand as part of my 60 day tourist visa by 30th April." I'm a bit confused. If you have a Tourist visa, you chopped in for 60 days. Fine, understand that part, but I thought you could just go to a local Immigration office and pay baht 1,900 for a 30-day extension of that visa, for a total stay of 90 days. ????

thepool Posted April 26, 2014 Share Posted April 26, 2014 You can ! I don't understand the the expression "chopped" is that some sort of American slang for "stamped" 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thanyaburi Mac Posted April 26, 2014 Share Posted April 26, 2014 "Chop" is more Chinese than American, altho I must admit I am a proud Yank.... It's a commonly use expression for "stamped." http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Seal_(East_Asia) Mac Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thanyaburi Mac Posted April 27, 2014 Share Posted April 27, 2014 Delh Did you read my post #6 above? Looks like ThePool agrees. You don't have to exit the country right now, a trip to Immigration may give you a 30-day extension. Check it out before spending the baht for a visa run. Unless you want to go anyway, of course....

delh Posted April 27, 2014 Author Share Posted April 27, 2014 Agreed that I can extend for 30 days. But I'd rather travel the region rather than just stay local. So many places to go to. Some think that the restrictions are a pain but I'd rather look at it as an opportunity.

ubonjoe Posted April 28, 2014 Share Posted April 28, 2014 You can get re-entry permits (1000 baht) at immigration if you want to make short trips out of the countrythat will keep your 60 day entries and/or 30 day extensions valid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
