I want information about Thailand 6 month multiple entry visa details.

Thailand has visa on arrival for Indian citizens. If you are an Indian, just buy a ticket and you just need your passport and they will stamp it on arrival.

Here's information on obtaining a 6-month multiple entry visa for Thailand:



Thailand Multiple Entry Tourist Visa (METV)

This visa allows you to enter and leave Thailand multiple times within a validity period of 6 months from the date of issuance, with each stay not exceeding 60 days. It's a good option for people who plan on making return visits to Thailand during their 6-month period.

Eligibility:

The eligibility requirements for a Thai multiple-entry tourist visa can vary depending on your nationality. However, some general requirements include:

• A valid passport with an expiry date of at least 6 months beyond your intended stay in Thailand and with at least one blank page for the visa stamp.
• Completed visa application form.
• One recent passport-sized photograph.
• Proof of onward or return flight ticket.
• Proof of sufficient financial means: This typically involves showing bank statements or financial documents that demonstrate you have at least 10,000 baht per person (or 20,000 baht per family) for your stay.
• Some embassies or consulates may require additional documents, so it's best to check with the specific Thai embassy or consulate you'll be applying through.

Fees:

The visa fee can vary depending on your nationality and the embassy or consulate you apply through. It's generally around USD $120 - $180.

Application Process:

There are two main ways to apply for a Thai multiple-entry tourist visa:

1. Apply in person: This involves submitting your application and documents at the Thai embassy or consulate in your home country.
2. Apply through a visa agency: This can be a more convenient option, but it will typically involve additional service fees.

Processing Time:

The processing time for a Thai multiple-entry tourist visa can vary depending on your nationality and the workload of the embassy or consulate. It typically takes between 15 to 30 business days.

Important Notes:

• A visa issuance doesn't guarantee entry into Thailand. Immigration officials have the final authority to grant entry upon arrival.
• You cannot extend your stay in Thailand beyond the 60-day limit per visit granted with the visa. If you wish to stay longer, you'll need to apply for a visa extension within Thailand before your current authorized stay expires.
• There are other types of Thai visas available for longer stays or specific purposes like working or studying. Research these options if they better suit your needs.
