Expats visiting other Asean countries


Recommended Posts

I have heard that as of 1st January 2015 it will be possible for expats with appropriate visa extensions to visit other Asean countries without first acquiring a visa to enter that country. Has anyone any idea if this is true and if so are any details available?

I also understand a re-entry permit will still be required for return to Thailand as normal.

Any info would be appreciated.

Many thanks

It is not true. Whether or not a foreigner living in Thailand needs a visa to enter another member country of ASEAN depends on his nationality and on the country he intends to visit, regardless of the status of his permission to stay in Thailand.

Thanks for the info Maestro. I thought it a little odd when it was said to me but as with many things, it pays to ask around.
