Working In Laos

How long can I stay in Thailand on a single entry non-immigrant visa?

I am going to the embassy tomorrow and was wondering what the best option is for me if I would like to stay in Thailand for 6 months (as a tourist, won't be working or studying). I was told by a friend that you can go on a single entry then after 60 days you apply for another 30 days at immigration in Thailand. After the 90 days you can then go to Laos or Cambodia and re-enter on another single entry non-immigrant visa. Is this correct? If not please advise.


You are not looking for a non-immigrant visa you are looking for a tourist visa, which will give you 60 days on arrival and can be extended an additional 30 days at immigrations for a cost of 1,900 baht.

What you can do is apply for two tourist visas, and use them back to back, after you use the first tourist visa you do a visa run at the nearest border crossing and return and use the second visa. to get an additional 90 days without going to a Thai consulate for another visa. You may even be able to get three tourist visa if you want. Just ask at the consulate when you go.
