Suradit69 Posted September 6, 2015 Share Posted September 6, 2015 (edited) I arrived at cnx and got 30 days stamped in my passport, I'm not sure what the visa is called It's not a visa. You were given a 30 day permission to stay without having a visa (thus, "visa exempt"). As others have said, you can extend the stay by 30 days at an immigrations office (ignore the two posts that said you could only get 7 days). Go into immigrations about a week before your current permission expires. They will add 30 days onto your current permission to stay, so you lose nothing by going in a bit early and it's a safer than waiting to the last minute to do it..

I agree with the " No You have to apply for the 30 day extension at an immigration office." However at Phuket office I giot 60 days and yes my GF was there but I did ot provide any paperwork or anything to support my visa extn. I was told when i first entered the office I could only get 7 days....I got 60 days and paid 1900 Bht after the interview. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ramrod711 Posted October 29, 2015 Share Posted October 29, 2015 My friend from Canada arrived in Thailand on vacation, was granted a visa exempt 30 day stay. He will be 3 days short of his return flight when it expires. I would like to know if crossing the border and returning from Myanmar is ok for an additional 15 days, or even 7 days. I would appreciate any advice offered, thank you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Three out of the 4 Myanmar crossings do not allow a out/in crossing for a new exempt entry at this time. Only Ranong is allowing them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sonul Posted March 20, 2016 Share Posted March 20, 2016 I have a double entry tourist visa which going to the end. Every 60 days i extended the 30days at immigration. Now i would like to go abroad and come back to get a visa on arrival + a extend after 30 days. This would be more comfortable as applying a single entry tourist visa. Would it be possible to do that?

If you are from a country whose citizens can be admitted under the "visa exempt" scheme the answer would be yes. Visas on arrival are only available to passport holders from a few countries, cost 1000 Bht and allow a 15 day stay. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
