Visa run to another country

If you need to leave the country because your length of stay is nearly expired, you must do a visa run.

You can either cross any Thai border by plane, foot, train or car. In the list to the left you find different solutions!

If you need a new visa, you must travel into another country and visit a Thai Embassy or consulate and apply for a new Tourist visa or Non-Immigrant visa.
