will phuket immigration give me a 3rd visa exempt stamp?

Featured Replies

hello, so, i'd been in phuket for 7 months on Non Imm B then quit my job;

i got my 1st visa exempt stamp coming from Laos by land in chong mek, used full 30days;

went to vietnam for 10days and got my 2nd visa exempt stamp in don muang, leaving to KL immediately 24hrs later (right now), and scheduled to return to phuket 6 days later, will they give me another visa exempt stamp? this will actually be my final one before leaving thailnd. thank you in advance.

You do not fit the profile of a back-to-back border runner so you should not have any problems. Especially not if you already have a ticket home to show.

That information is a bit old. Even if you visit multiple countries and stay out of Thailand for a 2-3 weeks, you can still get popped. There are no pat answers sadly. You are at their mercy. It is not a government you want to put any faith in. The ticket thing does not matter either. The idea is to squeeze those who have a love or need of Thailand. They want you to upgrade to opening a business or a retirement visa.

It is not old and it is correct.

Many people have made several exempt entries without a problem. As long as you don't stay for the entire 30 days and go out and back for another entry will not be a problem.

That information appears to be bang up to date. If in the event that you are questioned by immigration, all you need do is to prove you are a tourist. As the OP is returning home after this entry and can show an onward ticket, that should seal any doubt with immigration.

Obviously your approach and reaction to the immigration officer will have a lot to do with it.......................wink.png

Since the so called changes.....I have be waiting for someone with a similar history to the OP ....to post refusal of entry. I haven't seen one.

Nonsense. Your imagination is creating issues that don't exist and attributing your own convoluted logic (The idea is to squeeze those who have a love or need of Thailand.") to others. No one who is obviously and demonstrably not gaming the system has been denied a visa exempt entry if he is eligible for one and the idea that immigrations wants tourists to open a business in Thailand is ridiculous.

No problem, especially if you can show a flight home.
