since when does entering Thailand on a visa cost money?

@Dmb ******

sorry sir, I'm not talking BS there, but you are. Immigrations offices aren't even dealing with visas in the first place. You're speaking with way too much confidence there.

I've already told you where the best place for advice is. It's here. For specific visa questions, the embassy is the go to place. Not immigrations.

What a bunch of crap. The immigrations office cannot give him anything useful. Here, on the other hand, is where you can find people who know the ins and outs and can think along. If that's not you, perfectly fine, but don't send people to places that won't get them and further please.

Be aware that February 7th is one day too long in your case. For a single day the 500 baht fine is normally waived, but you will still get an overstay stamp. The count works calendar day based, yielding one more day than a duration-based count would.

I think you should be fine with a third entry. Although you'll max out one stay, the one in June/July barely exceeds 30 days. There should be room for one additional entry. If they ask how many days you plan to stay, you could help your case presenting a lower number than 90.

You could also consider getting a tourist visa. Then the check of your travel history is done upfront. If the embassy is good with it, immigrations is not supposed to deny entry.

You don't get a visa on arrival. You're exempted. You can go to Vietnam and back without issues.

Why do you want a visa?

@Dario ********

that's better, but not free of risk.

Visa exemption is still there, except that it's now 60 days.
