Jake801 Posted July 24, 2015 Share Posted July 24, 2015 Hello, 22 year old Brit flying to Bangkok from Heathrow (London) on 13th of August. Return flight booked for 24th September. (Qatar Airways). Have booked a flight out to Singapore on the 2nd of September and return on the 5th of September (Tiger Air). Will the flight to Singapore extend my 30 exemption via for being a Brit? I'll have all the tickets printed so I can show the Airlines / Thai Embassy what my plans are. Many Thanks Jake Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nowretired Posted July 24, 2015 Share Posted July 24, 2015 It would be very easy to obtain a Tourist visa in the UK which would allow a 60 day stay which can be extended in country for a further 30 days at cost of 1900 Bht. 30 day visa exempt entries can also be extended in country at an immigration office for 1900 Bht. If you fly to Singapore nothing will be "extended" but you will receive a new visa exempt entry on returning to Thailand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brit_Doggie Posted July 24, 2015 Share Posted July 24, 2015 Wow expensive way of extending but enjoy. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ubonjoe Posted July 24, 2015 Share Posted July 24, 2015 It will not extend your 30 days but you will get a new 30 day visa exempt entry when you enter Thailand after your trip. You could also get a 30 day extension of your 30 day entry at an immigration office for a fee of 1900 baht. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KhunBENQ Posted July 24, 2015 Share Posted July 24, 2015 As @Brit_Doggie write: a hiclass method to get 30 days The prints of the Sin flight might be important to checkin at Qatar airways, as otherwise they would have a cheap reason to deny you boarding (e.g. when overbooked).

renaissanc Posted July 24, 2015 Share Posted July 24, 2015 I'm a UK citizen. I've been living in Thailand since 1984. I now have a Tourist Visa for the first time as I couldn't renew my annual visa before I left the country and it expired before I could return. I'm glad to know that I can stay up to 60 days without leaving the country while I sort things out. (So many documents to obtain for the "B" visa!) Thank you for answering the gentleman's question.

p_brownstone Posted July 24, 2015 Share Posted July 24, 2015 Just a sort of "generic" rant. Why on earth do some Posters apparently think it makes them sound "cool" to omit letters in naming Cities or Countries? How much more time does it take to type "Pattaya", instead of "Patts" or "Patters" for example - so common on TV??? Now we have another clown who thinks he will look like a seasoned "World Traveler" by referring to Singapore as "Singa". Rant over.

Footie instead of football as example. You are herby officially warned about the Thai embassy in Singapore. It has a reputation about being an unfriendly place to get a Thai visa......they are quite strict with the adhering to the rules and requiring every I be dotted and every T be crossed correctly.
