Tuesday, December 16, 2008Phuket Immigration clarifies new visa rules
PHUKET CITY: At a press conference held late yesterday, Phuket Immigration confirmed that foreigners arriving without visas at any of Thailand’s
non-airport immigration checkpoints will be granted permits-to-stay of only
15 days, half the former number.
The conference was led by Phuket Immigration Superintendent Chanatpol Yongbunjerd, who also confirmed that the former rule limiting foreigners entering on “visa exemptions” from staying more than
90 days over a 180-day period was no longer in effect.
As a result, foreigners from any of the 40 countries eligible for “visa exemptions” can now
legally reside in Thailand year-round, provided they don’t mind making a “
visa run” every 15 days (
30 days if by air) and abide by all other laws and regulations.
The new 15-day rule is now in effect at
all 54 land border checkpoints, including the seaport checkpoint at Ranong, popular with Phuket-based foreigners doing visa runs to Burma.
The new order, issued on November 25, is intended as a way of stopping foreigners from working illegally in the country in industries such as real estate, Col Chanatpol said.
