RE: From Thailand Beach Life to Malaysia City Life

in #travel8 years ago

Hi! I'm wondering - what happens if you don't book a flight out of Thailand within 30 days? Me and my boyfiend are planning a trip there...wasn't aware of that ristriction...usualy you can stay up to 3 months without complications...So - thank you for sharing this with us! Will follow you for more :) @lavitaebella

Hi @lavitaebella, you can apply for a tourist visa in your home country. With this visa you can stay in Thailand for 2 months + 1 month if you extent it at the thai consulate for a 2000 baht fee. You don't necessarily need a ticket out of Thailand when you come in to the country with this visa, but many people still do it to avoid any difficult questions. I hope you'll have a great time there! :)

Thank you @natural.cure, @laurenkavanagh and @robbierush for kind advices! Will take everything into consideration and see what suits us the most! Thank you all :)

Yes that's the best option I hope you and your boyfriend have a wonderful time :)

Hello @lavitaebella what I know is that you can have a 30 day Visa entry which you fill out on the plane and give to passport control when you enter Thailand. but if you want to stay longer I think you will need to go to your embassy and apply for a longer trip. You can leave Thailand and go back again but you need to be out the country for more than 24 hours so we just went to Malaysia for a week and returned to Thailand where you get another 30 day Visa. Would be easier for you to just get 3 month Visa if you want to just stay in Thailand though... Hope that helps.

i stay in thailand and once a month i go to immigration in pattaya and i get a 30 day extension for 1900 baht thats how i do it but other people do border runs or fly out for a week then come back again

Yes that is what we done a border run was going to go to Cambodia but had too much already planned in such a short time scale. I didn't know you could get the extension there that is great to know for @lavitaebella
