Deke Posted August 20, 2016 Share Posted August 20, 2016 My understanding is that you can apply for, and receive, a 30-day extension of stay after entering on a tourist visa only once. After that, a second application for extension will result in you being given an additional 7 days to leave the country (from the date of expiry of the original extension). Also that the second, refused request, still requires the payment of a 1900 Baht fee. Can someone confirm that this is indeed correct? Thank you.

ubonjoe Posted August 20, 2016 Share Posted August 20, 2016 You can only apply for one 30 day extension of a 60 day tourist visa entry. You can apply for a 7 day extension, pay 1900 baht and be granted 7 days to leave the country. The 7 days start from the end of the 30 day extension. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JOC Posted August 20, 2016 Share Posted August 20, 2016 Have a friend coming on a single entry TV. Have just told him, that he can get it extended for 30 days at immigration + land border run=another 15 days and that stamp can be further extended at immigration. He needs 4 months. Is the above advice correct? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gk10002000 Posted August 21, 2016 Share Posted August 21, 2016 if your friend is from a G-7 member country he should be able to get a 30 day visa exemption for a land border run versus the 15 day. Depends on his country of citizenship. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
