How Long Can I Stay In Thailand?
Visa-free visitors can stay up to 60 days, with the option to extend for an additional 30 days at Thai immigration offices. This provides up to 90 days for tourism purposes.

For comprehensive Thailand itineraries, the 60-day visa-free allowance typically provides ample time to explore multiple regions. A well-planned two to three week trip can cover highlights from Bangkok to Chiang Mai and southern islands, while longer stays allow for deeper immersion in specific areas.
If you require more time, the 30-day extension is processed at immigration offices in Bangkok, Chiang Mai, Phuket, and other major cities. The process takes a few hours and requires your passport, a passport photo, and the extension fee.
Those planning extended or repeat visits should consider the Thailand Privilege Visa, which provides multiple-entry privileges for five to twenty years, eliminating the need for visa runs or extensions.
