Hi Guys,

 

I am asking this for my man.

He is Italian entered in to Satun yesterday 11/1/17 by boat ferry from Lankawi. The immigration office at Tamalang's stamp said 30 days.

 

He wants to stay in Thailand till 31/3/17 before going out to Japan and enter again on 7/4/17, then fly back to Italy on 23/4.

 

The question is how to stay in Thailand during say 10/2/17 till 31/3/17. We are thinking about:

 

1. Visa run at Wangprajan.  (Land border with Malaysia) -- no cost

or 

2. Visa extension at Satun immigration office for tourist -- 1900 baht

 

 

I want to ask you guys if anyone had experience this year doing the visa run at Wangprajan??? I wonder if they would stamp the 30 days immediately or he must go out and travel in Malaysia for couple days.  I couldn't find the way to contact them. 

 

Thanks a lot in advance for your help.

 

Best,

 

Kamfai 

 

 

 

He can apply for the 30 day extension of his entry for a fee of 1900 baht.

He can only do one more visa exempt entry this year (new rules since January 1st) at a land border crossing.

He could cross the border enter Malaysia and come right back to Thailand get another 30 day entry.

Not problem to fly back in from Japan in April.

All the southern land borders including Wang Prachan mumble that you must stay out of Thailand 'overnight' before returning, even to holders of multi-entry O & B.

 

Doesn't mean that they enforce it - I would just pay up the 1900B and not worry.

Hi

Is it possible to get Re-entry stamp by Thai immigration at Satun?

You can get a re-entry permit at the immigration office in Satun.

It would depend though on what type of entry you have though. If on an extension of stay issued by another office they would not normally do one.

Thanks so much, and how about Koh Lipe?

There is no immigration office there.

Actually, there is a small immigration office near Pattaya Beach on Koh Lipe. It is only intended to process visitors arriving on the ferry from Langkawi. Thus, it operates restricted hours, and only from October until May. Services available there are very restricted.

It is just a checkpoint for entry to the country not a full service immigration office which is what I was referring to.
