Maybe the best for you is to apply for a 90 days Non O visa with single entry and do one year extension of stay in Thailand with multiple re-entry permits. Then you can just come and go as you wish.

Extension of stay is 1900 baht and re-entry permit is 1000 baht for single, multiple 3800 baht.

Check in your e-visa portal if it still says “processing” or “finished” and check the spam filter of your e-mail.

The process is normally done just in a couple of days.

How long time do u like to spent in Thailand in total at this moment? You can apply for a 30 days extension at your local immigration, do a border bounce and re-enter on another 60 days visa exemption.

Hvor lenge ønsker du å være i Thailand nå

? Du kan få 30 dager til først på din det 60 dagers visumfritaket du har. Tar du en rask grensepassering kan du komme inn på nye 60 dagers visumfritak som du igjen kan få forlenget med 30 dager. Dette er gratis, men du betaler 1900 baht for de nye 30 dagene ved lokal immigrasjon.

If you don’t have any recent excessive travel history in and out of Thailand you can leave and re-enter on another visa exemption. You ask how many times you can repeat this cycle. There’s no official specific limit or regulations regarding this and everything is in the discretion of the IO you’re standing in front of and there for sure is a limit somewhere. If they mean that you aren’t a genuine tourist but use tourist solutions for long term stay in Thailand you risk to get pulled aside and told to get a proper visa according to your travel pattern and/or denied entry. I would say if you maximise two visa exemptions in a row and stay for 180 days the rest becomes a gamble.

It’s probably just an error and 3 is corrected to 1 which gives 11. Nothing else makes sense.

60 days visa exemption is the new normal now until anything changes.

And if you update your insurance for another year and get stamped in short time before 11th November 2025 you can stay until 10th November 2026. For your second year you’ll need to purchase re-entry permits as the visa itself it’s expired and you’re on permission to stay.

You’ll only get 60 days at all border points on visa exemption. No half offers, it’s all or nothing.

True, that’s how Non O-A visa gives up to two years in Thailand.

When status is changed to “Finnish” you’ll have an e-mail with your visa as a pdf as Stuart states. (You can also open your e-visa in the e-visa portal).
