alex88 Posted August 16, 2014 Share Posted August 16, 2014 A friend and I arrived overland from Poipet yesterday and both were stamped in for 14 days. Is this the standard for land arrivals now? Is it extendable? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wayned Posted August 16, 2014 Share Posted August 16, 2014 (edited) 15 days is standard unless you are a citizen of a G7 country which gets 30 days or a country that has a bilateral agreement with Thailand,such as South Korea which gets 90 days on any entry.

ubonjoe Posted August 16, 2014 Share Posted August 16, 2014 The 15 day entries has been standard for almost 6 years now unless your are from a G7 country or one that has a bilateral agreement with Thailand. A quick look at the calender tells me you have a permit to stay date of the 29th. On that date you can apply for the new 30 day extension for exempt entries that starts on that date, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alex88 Posted August 16, 2014 Author Share Posted August 16, 2014 Ok thanks for the info. I knew it had changed to 15 days but thought it had been changed back. But apparently that is only for g7 countries. If I can extend 30 days on the 29th that would be great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ubonjoe Posted August 16, 2014 Share Posted August 16, 2014 Be at immigration early on the 29th and you might be one of the first to get the 30 day extension. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thai Visa Service Posted August 16, 2014 Share Posted August 16, 2014 (edited) 15 days is standard unless you are a citizen of a G7 country which gets 30 days or a country that has a bilateral agreement with Thailand,such as South Korea which gets 90 days on any entry. South Korean are prohibited to enter via any land border, they were the worst abusers and started the current crack down. Even at the Airport they need valid visa to enter Thailand.

ubonjoe Posted August 16, 2014 Share Posted August 16, 2014 Can I do this in pattaya? You can do it at any immigration office as long as you have a local address to put on the application form. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alex88 Posted August 16, 2014 Author Share Posted August 16, 2014 Does my hotel count as a local address? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ubonjoe Posted August 16, 2014 Share Posted August 16, 2014 Yes a hotel address will be fine. As a tourist that is what they would expect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
