benita Posted November 29, 2014 Share Posted November 29, 2014 Hi, I am from India and I know that I can only get 15 day visa on arrival. I am currently living abroad, and the emassy wouldn't give me a tourist visa for 25 days because they said that I can get visa on arrival. I know this is weird, but this really happened. I had already bought my ticket with a return ticket for after 20 days from arrival and I cannot change the return date because all the seats are booked now. Is it possible to get a 25 day visa on arrival? If so, how? I am really worried that they will not let me enter the country. I have a sister working in Thailand legally. Help! Paying 500 Bhat everyday is too expensive for me. Thank you! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paz Posted November 29, 2014 Share Posted November 29, 2014 (edited) You can't obtain more than 15 days with visa on arrival. I recommend that you go back at the consulate with tickets and bookings and insist for a tourist visa asking to talk with a senior manager. Nothing bad can derive because they are not giving you any service. Sometime you get better results applying with a travel agency the specializes in Thailand tours. If you that will not get you the visa, then after arriving you will need to travel to Vientane or Savannakhet Laos to obtain a tourist visa.

wayned Posted November 29, 2014 Share Posted November 29, 2014 You could also have a problem boarding your flight to Thailand since your onward ticket is more the 15 days from your arrival! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ATF Posted November 29, 2014 Share Posted November 29, 2014 They probably won't give you a Tourist Visa because you seem to say you are applying in another Country not in India. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thai Visa Service Posted November 30, 2014 Share Posted November 30, 2014 You can't obtain more than 15 days with visa on arrival. I recommend that you go back at the consulate with tickets and bookings and insist for a tourist visa asking to talk with a senior manager. Nothing bad can derive because they are not giving you any service. Sometime you get better results applying with a travel agency the specializes in Thailand tours. If you that will not get you the visa, then after arriving you will need to travel to Vientane or Savannakhet Laos to obtain a tourist visa. He can not get Tourist Visa from Laos, he is Indian. Restrictions apply: Indian have to apply in home country or country of residence. In most cases, since OP can show ticket Thai Immigration will extend a visa or arrival by further 7days, cost thb1,900.-. However I can not say if he has a problem during check in.

ubonjoe Posted November 30, 2014 Share Posted November 30, 2014 You will not get the visa on arrival when you apply for it. A ticket out of the country within 15 days is one of the requirements. Perhaps you should print out the requirements shown here to show the embassy where you appied. http://www.mfa.go.th/main/en/services/123/15393-Visa-on-Arrival.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

brewsterbudgen Posted November 30, 2014 Share Posted November 30, 2014 there is no visa on arrival in Thailand. Yes there is, for these countries: List of countries and territories is as follows : Bhutan China Cyprus Czech Republic Estonia Hungary India Kazakhstan Latvia Liechtenstein Lithuania Maldives Mauritius Poland Saudi Arabia Slovakia Slovenia Taiwan Ukraine (I believe China may now be off the list) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Richard W Posted November 30, 2014 Share Posted November 30, 2014 why is it that as a German I get a 30 days allowance on arrival ( if I have not obtained a Thai tourist visa in Germany before)?Because you're allowed in without a visa - 'visa waiver'. You don't pay a fee to enter Thailand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Digitalnomade Posted December 2, 2014 Share Posted December 2, 2014 and where you got your visa at airport? I have never seen any booth saying you can buy a visa. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ubonjoe Posted December 2, 2014 Share Posted December 2, 2014 and where you got your visa at airport? I have never seen any booth saying you can buy a visa. Next time look for the direction signs saying visa on arrival and follow them to find the desks. There will often be a long line of people waiting to get them.
