Can I do 3 months visa?
So i already book my flight (3 months) and my plan is to get tourists visa online for 60 days, and then once I am in thailand I wanna get a 30 days visa extension However from embassy they told me they can not guarantee I will be let in at the airport because my ticket will be with a date of return after 3 months and my visa will be 2 months. So now I fucked up my tickets flight are non-refundable so what can I do😕😕
@@Pokerrr You can buy a cheapie one way or return on a budget airline to a nearby country within that 60 day visa you have. ON arrival you should get a 30 day visa on return.
I can get round your problem

Did you resolve this problem?
Wonderful video. Thank you. Very informative. It's very useful indeed for those who wants to stay longer in Thailand.
Thanks for the video. Just used the advice on your video and got my visa approved within 7 days. Thanks again.
Omg this is so helpful, I was stressing about it so much!!
Glad it helped!
Thanksss super helpful video, highly recomended.
Very Helpful. Thankyou 🙏
Nice day and farewells from Malaysia and have fun at Thailand
Thank you for sharing Thailand Visa process 👍

Im doing a 5-6 month solo staycation in Thailand in February. Very helpful thanks
Did mine last year from your video before , Took 3 days plus the weekend! Cool thanks
Good to hear! 🙏🏻
Did you need to go to the embassy to get it ? Or when you get to Thailand they will give you the visa ?
@@vanessa7783 no they will send it to you to your adress
That was a massive help
Thanks for the Video
Hello Skye, SENT YOU AN EMAIL- thanks for your videos...very useful/helpful.
Splendid thanks
Love YOU so much
Long time no c❤️skye
Hey Skye, what about point 7? You glossed over it ☺️ confirmation of legal residence in the country you are applying for the visa. I am British? So, passport?
Great video very helpful. I didn’t realise it’s possible to do more than one extension on a METV I thought only once so never bothered getting one.
You can only extend 1 time
@@kevinwatterson9110 so if I arrive on METV then extend on day 25 I leave Thailand on day 90 then arrive back in Thailand again get another 60 days then I can extend again right?
@@darrenjones2983yes that is correct, A multi entry visa is valid for 6 month , 60 days in Thailand then 1 extention =90 days you must now leave and can return to Thailand within the 6 moth visa period, when you return automatic 60 day visa then extend 30 days =90 days Now your up to 180 days 1n Thailand, But if you leave on 175 day and return same day ,You get another 60 day visa extend for another 30 days , so you have now stayed in Thailand 3 days short of 9 months ,But Don't forget whilst your away from Thailand day a ticking away ,So best to leave and return the same day,
@@darrenjones2983officially you can extend a visa 1 time a year,but many people getting 2 or 3 extensions per year
Beautiful❤
Thank you! 😊
Hey, great video. Just one question - point 7.. what do I need to upload here? An English driving license? I’m from the UK and will be in the UK when applying for 60 day single entry
Hi Skye, thanks for a useful video. I've already got the single entry visa to stay in Thailand for 60 days, now when I leave the plane and go through the customs officer, what do I have to do, assuming that I carry a Tourist Visa as opposed to others who use the visa exempt scheme??
Listening to this gave me ASMR. Very relaxing.
Hi how are you thanks for your video I just have a question for you I am from Canada and you said on the one part of document of accommodation you mentioned an invitation letter do I have to write the hotel and ask him to send me one or just my confirmation of my booking that I have online ??
Hi Skye,
Im going to fly to Cambodia from Bangkok, do I need a multiple entry visa to get back into Thailand?
Or do I get another 30 day visa?
Im flying back to the Uk from Bangkok
Im on a British passport.
Thanks
Thanks for the video! After the 60 day tourist visa expires and you cross the boarder do you have to apply for another tourist visa to get back into Thailand?
it is now 3 months you get 2 months when you arive once you are in the country you can aply for another 30 days then you need to leave the country then when you enter again you get 30 says visa on your passport then you can aply for another 30 days then leave again and come back to thailand you can only do this 2 times a year leave and come back .

Hello, I should apply soon for the single visa. The approving of financial fund, it’s ok just a screenshot of the bank account?
Do you have to provide accomodation details for the full 60 days? I am planning on renting once i arrive but will book a hotel for the first few days of arrival, is a hotel for a couple of days long enough to provide as evidence for the Tourist Evisa? Or do i legitemately have to book a hotel that lasts my entire thailand stay when applying for the evisa? Australian btw

Hi Skye... great video!! Q.. when applying for 6 month multiple entry visa, you record the date of your flight exit just under 6 months of your arrival coz that wasn’t clear in the video.
Also, I’m assuming when you

Do you need to have travel plan for exiting the country when you first arrive. And if so how do you extend? Would you just have to buy a second or roundtrip plane ticket?
i got same issue what did you do?
After you do the border run you can get only 30 days visa and extend for another 30 days. You don't get 60 days
Hi Skye! Thanks for this video. I just want to ask, in applying multiple visa is it okay if I submit the hotel booking for first 30days we're staying? or should we submit the booking confirmation for 60days? but of course we do have the return ticket already booked within 60 days. Coz we don't know yet where we'll be staying for the next 30days.
Thanks in advance! 🙏
i have the same question, did you find an answer?
@@lenseofficial Hey! So Basically they just approved my Multiple Visa yesterday- it took 3working days which I really didn't expect it that fast. I submitted only the first 30days(or even a week if you want to) - goodluck!
@@atlechris so you reckon a week at a hotel is enoihj to satisfy their accommodation evidence? Because yeah don't really wanna book for the whole 60 days. Thanks
@@lenseofficial well we already booked 1month of Hotel before I applied for Multiple Visa and that's the one I submitted I thought they will give me Single Entry but I was wrong 😅
Hi sky just seen your video very good how much do you charge for an extension visa I’m coming for 6 weeks but would like to stay as long as possible multi entry is wat I’d be wanting please let me know thank you
Hi, please send me an email - skye@skyesamuels.com 😀
How come no one ever talks about needing to buy a flight out of Thailand before you apply for the multiple entry visa ? So you buy and schedule the outgoing flight at exactly 6 months, then what happens if they decline your multi entry visa? They have already forced you to buy a ticket for that six month date.
Nice video but terrible site and me and my friend have been trying to use it for 3 hours now and all it days after repeatedly freezing is now they are working on maintenance, however do I need to do this before I enter thailand because we depart in less than 2 days so I'm panicking now
Hi Skye, great video. You just stopped me from buying an exp. Elite Visa 🙏👍. How long of a Hotel stay you need to show on a 60 day
multiple entry visa? And where do you get dummy flight tickets from? I will stick with your channel 👍, thanks in advance
Ah fab! Hotel length doesn’t really matter 2/3/4 days wherever you are for your first stop is fine 😀 dummytickets.com
Does that Dummy ticket actually work??.
Please do let me know. Or do you have to book a flight and take a risk not knowing if the visa will be granted?
Hi Skye..... is that dummy ticket thing real? Or do you have to actually book a flight before you apply?. As im worried paying for a flight to the other side of the world and may get rejected. Please advise and thank you so much in advance.
Did you get an answer?
I'm from the UK - Can I arrive on the normal 1 month visa on arrival then leave at the end of my months stay to another Asian country and apply for the 60 day single entry online even if I'm not in the UK e.g. if I was in Vietnam, Cambodia, Laos, Philippines etc?
Yes you can stay in Thailand for a maximum 30 days ,When you return to Thailand you can get 30 days at the airport then extend for another 30 days
It is called visa-exempt entry not Visa on Arrival as that is completely different. You get a free visa-exempt 30-day entry every time you enter Thailand. This can be done twice a year via land entry and virtually unlimited by air. You can extend each time you enter for a further 30 days at any immigration office for 1900 baht. Getting a tourist visa from a country you are not resident in can take up to a month.
If the expiration date Can I come and request an extension?
Can you get multiple entries if unemployed
Hello Sky I got residence permit do I need visa for Thailand 🇹🇭 please ??
hi there. what if i book 3 different hotel?
Hi for step 5, you have too have proof of leaving the country in 60 days but if you plan on extending for 90 days what should you do? I dont want too book a return flight in 60 days and extended, rather book in 90 days.
I have this same question. We have booked a return flight that is 70 days out, as that is how long we wanted to stay. Are we going to have to change that flight reservation to have us returning in 59 days, or less, before we can apply for the visa? If we do that, then we have to change our ticket back to stay longer, after we get into Thailand. Changing the ticket, twice, gets expensive, and your seat options get more limited. Not a good route to go, if we can avoid it.
It's not asking for a photo of your passport stamps anymore
True! Thanks 😊
Am somalian trader i want to buy goods from Thailand companies so which type visa is suitable to me in order to come Thailand 🇹🇭?
Hi, regarding number 11, are you Sure about that ? driver's license will do?I was thinking they wanna see your landlord's agreement 🤔
Driver license will suffice, anything with your address e.g. utility bill 😀
There’s no examples here can you not show or say what that would be? How do I prove I’m a uk resident surely that’s just my passport?
Hi Skye! Thank you for this helpful video. I have a question: I'm planning to apply for Single Entry Tourist visa and planning to stay just 7 nights. Should I provide 3 or 6 months bank statements? Thanks in advance! ☺️
You don't need a visa ,At Bangkok Airport your granted a 30 day exempt visa that lasts 30 days but you need to show onward travel out of Thailand within 30 days
Where does it say that you need a 3 month statement for a single entry? I believe it's just one month and as long as you have their money worth 20.000 thb you should be fine. Also they don't really pay attention to such nuances that much.
@@studyobservation-rn3bm I have not said you need three months bank statement 👍😎✌
My bad
Hi the return flight details do I have to book a return flight if I am going to border crossing
yes you aqlways need a return flight to get the visa
Hi Skye! We are trying to figure out if we can get a tourist visa without having a departure flight booked to leave Thailand. We currently have a one-way ticket, and we're planning on leaving Thailand 55 days from when we arrive, but we aren't sure where we want to go next! Do you think this will pose problems for us in applying for our visas? Thanks!
i have same problem, what did you do?
@@TrillzMMA We ended up buying an onward ticket to another country before we arrived in Thailand. Our ticket was a departure within 60 days of our arrival date. However, they didn't check to see if we had an onward/return flight when we arrived... customs was really a breeze. So you might not even need to buy an outward ticket before you get there but I still would. We did visa on arrival and didn't have to buy a visa or anything. We just showed up and they stamped our passport. We did have to go to the immigration office in Pai to extend our visa from 30 days to 60 days. Make sure you do this before the 30 day mark or you'll get a late fee. Or you can pop over into Cambodia, Laos, Vietnam etc and come back in.
If you don't know when you want to leave (for an METV), would I be able to book a one way flight and then return flights to a neighbouring country as proof of onward travel? Or do I need to book return flights from the UK?
yeah, how did you get around this problem?
@@TrillzMMA Just book a one way to thailand and another return flight to a neighbouring country. I did Malaysia.
@sunjayroy312 basically 2 separate bookings? 2 one way flights. Too Thailand then too neighbouring country?
Great video Skye, I followed your instructions as per video for single entry 60 days, I only have 8 sections to fill in not 12 and no declaration form available in section 3
Can you tell me what I’m doing wrong please?
Thanks
I have the same issue. But I think it depends on the embassy/consulate we are applying to. I applied to the one in Netherlands and fee is 35euro
Visa application has changed from the time of this video , you do not need to download the Declaration any more
@@kevinwatterson9110 looks fairly straight forward, maybe easier than the thai pass!
Just applying and it has not asked me for copy of travel pages or a photo of me holding my passport. On the accommodation, I will be renting a condo, is this classed as Private Property, as it is own by a German national? Also under Private Property, it asked for a Thai contact number. My contact has a German telephone number, which I can not add. Do I use the Condo admin telephone?
Book a hotel that is free to cancel and use that booking for your visa. If you plan to extend your visa you must make sure the condo owner informs immigration, within 24 hours of your arrival, that you are staying in his condo using form TM30
@@MrJaggg88 if your tourist visa lasts 60 days, do i need to provide a hotel booking that spans 60 days when applying for the evisa? or can i just book a hotel for say a couple of days to a week and use that as accomodation details for the visa application?
@@lenseofficial No just the first day will do
Do i need to book my flight as its really expensive and im scared my visa will not be approved ?
Did you get an answer?
Just adding to my previous comment.. on the 6 month visa do you still have to extend for 30 days after the initial 60 days (with a cost of 1900 baht)? And after 90 days you have to leave the country for a visa run to renew again for 60 days and again extend for 30 days (pay again)making it 6 months in total
You don’t have, you can leave every 60 days but this is an option too😀
You can extend 1 time 30 days , then leave Thailand Skye says you can return to Thailand and get 60 days (NO Correct) the only way you can get 60 days is by way of visa application for 60 days , on your return to Thailand with no visa you get 30 days by flight into Thailand or 15 days by land
@@kevinwatterson9110 He is talking about a 6-month METV so he will get another 60 days on re-entry
Hello Skye let's say i am 10 days vefore my visa (extension) expire and im still in thailand can i apply for a new tourist visa online so i xan just leave the country 10 days later and pop back in the same day?
Hey! Unfortunately it doesn’t work like that, you’d have to apply for a new tourist visa in whichever country you go to after Thailand 😀
You could also do the visa exemption (if your eligible) and you get 30 days + 30 extension 🤷♀️
You will get this on arrival at the airport correct?
no they send it to your email adress
Does it defo work when you write down "not needed" for the proof of who ur staying with? And employment could you just write unemployed not needed? Alot of people leave work to travel?
Its very thai and annoying for a simple visa
Exactly 😀 or just upload a document e.g. passport just as a placeholder, it’s fine!
I was just emailed to provide more docs for 6 month multiple entry visa. They want updated flight info. 1. I cannot figure out how to upload the requested docs. 2. Do I need to buy flights even though I didn't plan to keep a rigid travel plan?

Hello skye help me out here I’m so confused about applying my visa for example on November 29 is where the day I leave my country then come back at February 12 -2024 and in visa website it said u can’t stay for less then 60 days how many months should I apply for ?
Only one option, apply online for a 60 day visa, near the end of 60 day visa go to immigration office and apply for 30 day extension, or you could visit another country and re-enter Thailand no more than 30 days before your flight home.
👆thanks Jeff! 😀
@@perryeg any country close to Thailand, day trip it's called a visa run. Most people extend their 60 days at local immigration office for 1900 baht, this can be done once. Then leave Thailand on a visa run, get granted 30 days on arrival, this too can be extended for 30 days. So that's 60 + 30 day extension, border run another 30 days, another 30 day extension. 150 days.
So the 45 day stamp on arrival (visa exemption) is gone ?
Yes went back down to 30 at the end of March
if you are planning on doing a visa run or perhaps you just plan to ask for an extention, how are you supposed to provide a flight OUT of thailand for the visa application?
You have to buy a throw away ticket or dummy ticket or maybe even a ticket that you can extend the date on and actually use it that suits 🤷♀️
thanks for the reply, does it have to be a flight i heard someone say they used a bus ticket@@SkyeSamuels
@@lenseofficial hi I have same issue, what did you do?
@@TrillzMMA it wasn't an issue for me, i just booked a 1 way flight for the tourist visa because that's what was reccomended by some thailand vet, in fact he said it hurts you if you provide evidence of a flight out, for whatever reason. So 1 way flight to thailand, and hotel booking (can just be for a few days thats fine) is enough evidence for the tourist evisa
For proof of residency what do y’all use? I don’t have a lease as I live with my parents

Make sure trillionaire me
If you are applying from the UK some of those questions do not apply now.Such as holding your passport and stamps of previous travel.
And the declaration is signed automatically in your name you just have to confirm this.This is from October 23
What format do all the documents have to be, jpeg or pdf?
Wrong, you DO have to have a photo of you holding the passport, I've just submitted an application, it's the photo of passport stamps that have gone and also having to print, sign and upload the declaration has gone
