Visa entry flying into Thaiand

[Alconna]

Hi,

 

My METV expires soon.

 

Return flight booked to Vientiane.

 

Though 35 days after re-entering Thailand again, i fly to UK.

 

Presume must obtain Thai tourist visa in Vientiane?

Otherwise 5 day over stay passport black mark.

 

 Wish to return to Thailand next year so dont wish to jeopardise.

 

Comments appreciated if theres a better method.

 

Thank you in advance.

You can apply for a 30 day extension of the 30 day visa exempt entry at immigration for a fee of 1900 baht. 

What is the enter before date on your METV? As long as you do an entry on or before that date you will get a new 60 day entry.

Thanks ubonjoe.

 

Metv fully used.

 

5 days Vientiane to get tourist visa.

 

Costs appear equate same, presume obtaining TR in Vientiane is safest bet.

I was quizzed at Bangkok airport when METV activated 9 months ago.

Wish for there to be no problems on returning to Thailand following Vientiane.

 

Many thanks again.
