DaveinAsia Posted October 5, 2015 Share Posted October 5, 2015 I've been looking for days now for certain information but can't find it. Tried calling several numbers at Bangkok Immigration too without success. I have quite a simple question; Holding 'new' UK passport Have 1 triple tourist visa from UK and have 1 double tourist visa from Savannakhet. Also have 30 day border run(x2). My last visa was a border run to Poipet and got 30 days on arrival. Due this Friday to renew. My question; can I go to the immigration office and get a 30 day extension on that 30 day tourist visa on arrival? If not; can I do another border run? Thanks a lot for any help! Cheers Dave Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ubonjoe Posted October 5, 2015 Share Posted October 5, 2015 You can extend your 30 day visa exempt entry for 30 days at an immigration office. It is not a visa of any kind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oncearugge Posted October 5, 2015 Share Posted October 5, 2015 You do not have a tourist visa. Visa exempt entries can be extended by 30 days at an immigration office. The fee is 1900 Bht. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

martinc1 Posted October 5, 2015 Share Posted October 5, 2015 I have 30 days visa exemption on my British passport valid till 10th october, today I was in Jomtien to get 30 day extension. They sent me back - TM30 is required (apparently for any extension, this is new i guess) and copy of owner id if he's not present, see image of their front desk: http://postimg.org/image/8l8sli8kj/ What are my options without TM30 (won't get it in time) , other than flying out? I need 30 days. Try other imigration office near Pattaya (Bkk?) with maybe more luck of no tm30 required? Visa run to Cambodia? What is current status of obtaining 30 days exemption for G7 country overland? Anything else? thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perhaps go to Bangkok and check into a low cost hotel near Chaeng Wattans immigration (best choice IMO).. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
