30 day tourist visa fly out and back same day?

[BigT73]

I just did the cambodia run and recieved 15 days, which is 15 days short of what I require. Can I do a quick flight to Singapore return the same day and get a 30 day tourist stamp on arrival? I am Aussie if that makes a difference.

Thanks for any replies.

Yes but there is no need. Towards the end of the 15 days you can go to immigration and get a 30 day extension of stay for 1,900 baht.

Thanks for the reply,

My scenerio is I had a double entry visa, I used the first entry of 60days and then extended for 30 days at Jomtien. I mistimed the second entry thats why I only got the 15 days at Cambodia. Do you think I can still get another 30 day extension at Jomtien? I remember years ago when I first started coming to Thailand, I did a cambodia border run and then went to Jomtien office after and they just gave me 7 days. With all the changes I am not sure what is the current status.

The rules changed last year when they increased the extension available for visa exempt entry from 7 days to 30. So you will have no problem getting an extra 30 days at Jomtien.

BigT,

Make sure you have proof of where you are staying when you go to Immigration.

TM 30 has to be filled out for a 30 day extension.

Just a follow up. easily done thanks for everyones input another 30 days granted.

Everyone working at jomtien imigration are so snowed under with these new TM 30 forms and the non english speaking russians they couldnt stamp my passport fast enough just to get me out of there.
