I don't have a whole blank page left, but have plenty of unused space on random pages, can enter Thailand?
I just need a stamp as I am on visa exemption program, have plenty of room for stamps... I think it shouldn't be a problem. I am flying home to get new passport and all good connecting flights are from Bangkok, so I need to enter Thailand, possibly via land or air.
Just planning my next trip to the Kingdom for March. Going for 40 days so checked my passport to see if I had received 60 days when I visited in December. Noticed that there was no departure stamp. Will that be an issue?
Does anyone know if I can have both a DTV visa and also visa for other countries, for example Bali 211A 60 days visa (extended to 180 days).. basically trying to work out if I can do 6 months in Thailand one winter.. the 6months back home in uk.. then the next winter, 6 months in Bali. Thanks 😉
There seems to be a lot of profiles on many Thailand tourist and expat pages and groups asking for pictures of visa exemption stamps, I am not sure if there is anything sinister happening, but I would be interested in knowing why anyone would need a picture of the visa.
Does anyone have recent experience entering by flight into thailand with a tourist visa but with a passport filled with pages of extension stamps back from the covid stamp days? Have there been any issues entering through customs/ immigration?
Yesterday just after midnight and after 4.5 months of travelling in China and central Asia I arrived back in Thailand at Suvarnabhumi airport. Wanted to enter on visa Excempt like I normally do 2 or 3 times a year since 2011. Nowadays I extend the visa after 1 month with that 1900 baht extension. So I normally stay for 2 months then travel 3 or 4 months in Asia and then come back. During Covid I have not been in Thailand for 2 years.
My 7 year old 66 page Dutch passport is now full with Asian visa stamps and stickers. The emigration officer goes through all of them. He speaks he mix of english and Thai numbers and Thai border cities to himself or to me, that was not clear. Then asks how long I want to stay. I say 30 days, but then i remember the rumor of 60 day excempt and say 60 days. He did not like that answer and presses the red button.
Another officer comes and I have to follow him to a desk. He blames me of going to other countries 1 day and then come back, which I never did. Mostly there are 3 or 4 months between my reentries. Then he showed me Lao stamps from 2018 where I stayed 1 week in Laos. Is that not allowed? He says if he went to my country he would have more problems, well can I help that? He blamed me for coming for thai girls.
I could enter this time but next time would send me back.
So is there a rule that I cannot enter 2 or 3 times on visa excempt? I know at land borders its 2 times.
Does thailand no like tourists?
Should I worry next time when I want to enter on visa excempt?
PS Next morning after sleeping on the bench in the airport, I suddenly remember the first thing the first officer said was something with 2 dollar, but I could not hear it clear and asked sorry? Or did I dream this?
Just a little bit of advice. When you receive any stamp in your passport before you leave the desk make sure you can clearly read the stamp.
This week came from Laos and on arrival at Thai immigration they could not read the exit stamp from Laos, to be honest it was very faint. After being told to return to Laos to get another visa and entry and exit stamps the senior guy did let me in. They were polite and helpful. But just beware!
I received my 90 day non O, and one year extension (retirement), and multi entry stamp, 60 days ago. But my passport was full after all the stamps. So I sent off for a replacement passport, that I have just received back, with the old passport too. I have an international flight out, in early April, and back to BKK in late April.
Do I need to go to immigration and get the stamps transferred over to my new passport, before my flight out?
Or possibly it’s something that can be done at BKK airport immigration, upon my return flight?
