ubonjoe Posted December 14, 2014 Share Posted December 14, 2014 If you have OA visa issued by an embassy or consulate you can do it as early as you want. But every day before the date your visa expires (enter before date on sticker) is a day lost that you can stay here without getting an extension or a new visa.

Lite Beer Posted December 15, 2014 Share Posted December 15, 2014 You can leave and return as many times as you want during the first year and get 12 months from date of entry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Suradit69 Posted December 15, 2014 Share Posted December 15, 2014 (edited) Anytime before the visa expires, but remember you need to cross back INTO Thailand before the expiry date. Best to allow a few days to spare in case of transport delays or New Year's celebrations caused delays at the border. Make sure you are looking at the expiry or "use by" date printed on the visa sticker you got at the embassy and NOT the permission to stay hand stamp you got from immigrations when you entered the country the last time. And once the visa has expired if you want to travel in and out of Thailand you'll need a re-entry permit or you will lose the permission to stay you get from this last use of the visa.

KhunBENQ Posted December 16, 2014 Share Posted December 16, 2014 Basically all said. Just consider that starting from about Dec 26 traffic will increase steadily for the long new year holidays. I would better waste a few days than getting any close to New Years Eve. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
