Bon j'ai du reculer mon voyage pour la Thaï (cause : raison personnel)
Je comptais partir 6 mois, du coup il se pourrait que ce soit un peu juste, et que je doive revenir au bout de 5 mois voir même 4 mois.
Le problème, c'est que çà ; je ne le saurais pas 10 ans à l'avance, mais au moment !
Cad, quand je serais sur place (et oui aujourd'hui le monde moderne fonctionne en : juste-à-temps)
A la base je comptais prendre donc un double entrée 2 x 30€ + 2 x 50€ (Extentions) + 150€ (allez "autres pays > Thailande")
Soit un total pour la modic somme de 310€, sans compté l'aller-retour France Thailande + Vie + Hotel + Viste et dépense sur place !
Donc je me posais la question si aujourd'hui il serait pas financièrement mieux pour moi de prendre juste un Simple Entrée + Extentions
Soit (30 + 50) = 80€
Sachant que si je doit rentré plus-tôt, je ne perd pas donc 230€ dans le Vide Intersidérale.
Le pb c'est que si au bout de 3 mois, je vois que j'aurais finalement le temps de rester 5 ou 6 mois par ex.
Est-ce que je peux demander un deuxième visa de 3 mois (Simple Entrée) sur Place ?
Voila, merci
Le but étant d'ajuster le visa et le prix sur la durée réel du voyage !
non il vous faudra ressortir du territoire thai pour aller dans une ambassade thai affin de faire la demande de visa
en prenant direct le visa double entré, si vous restez moins de 5 moins vous n'aurez pas a payer la 2eme extantion
et pour valider la 2eme entré il vous suffis d'aller a la premiere frontiere venu
alors que si vous faite deux visa de deux mois il vous coutera une nuit plus le cout pour aller jusqu'à l'ambassade thai dans le pays le plus pres
vive la douceure thai et leurs piments hai hai hai
Bonjour,
le visa dit "double entree" est de loin le plus pratique si vous compter rester 6 mois de maniere sure; reste a vous assurer que l'ambassade de thailande en France ou vous allez en faire la demande voudra bien vous l'accorder sans que vous ayez de billet justifiant de votre "sortie" du territoire thai au bout de 3 mois .
Mais raisonnons logiquement : sachant que de toute maniere, vous serez obliger de sortir du territoire au bout des 3 premiers mois , je me permettrai de vous conseiller la chose suivante : Prenez un visa simple entree en france, faites-le prolonger en thailande, et au bout des 90 jours, allez dans une ambassade de thailande situee dans un pays limitrofe pour en obtenir un nouveau.( prevoyez le prix du visa vers cet autre pays).
Je suis passer par vos interrogations, et en triant le vrai de la legende urbaine, je comprend un peu mieux le systeme ; armez-vous de patience et tout se passera bien. Pour tous les details specifiques au sujet de la prolongation du premier visa, et l'obtention du second visa simple entree, n'hesitez-pas a m'interpeller, je vous repondrai au mieux de mon vecu !
cordialement
en prenant direct le visa double entré, si vous restez moins de 5 moins vous n'aurez pas a payer la 2eme extantion
Oui, en prenant un Simple entrée non plus, par définition ...
pour valider la 2eme entré il vous suffis d'aller a la premiere frontiere venu
alors que si vous faite deux visa de deux mois il vous coutera une nuit plus le cout pour aller jusqu'à l'ambassade thai dans le pays le plus pres
Pour un Visa double entrée l'ambassade demande (j'ai le papier) :
Le visa touristique doit être utilisé dans les 3 mois à dater de sa délivrance pour une entrée(= un séjour de 58 jours en Thaïlande + extension accordée ou non sur décision du bureau d’immigration d’1 mois sur place(environ 1950 Bahts), ou dans les 6 mois pour deux entrées (= deux séjours de 58jours) . Entre les 2 séjours faire valider la deuxième entrée à un poste frontière aérien.
Si DEUX entrées demandées, fournir impérativement deux réservations aériennes confirmées pour la Thaïlande – par exemple : France/Thaïlande + autre pays/Thaïlande
Je suis donc obligé de présenté un vol "autre pays/Thaïlande" et donc de passer par un poste frontière aérien.
Quitte a payer un vol vers un autre pays, autant que j'y reste quelques jours pour visite (dans le cas ou je pourrai resté + de 3 mois)

@ sikander2 :
Je suis passer par vos interrogations
Effectivement, cela ce voit.
le visa dit "double entree" est de loin le plus pratique si vous compter rester 6 mois de maniere sure
Oui, le pb est bien là, si j'étais sûre je prendrais directement celui-çi.
reste a vous assurer que l'ambassade de thailande en France ou vous allez en faire la demande voudra bien vous l'accorder sans que vous ayez de billet justifiant de votre "sortie" du territoire thai au bout de 3 mois .
Effectivement, c'est un pb possible, mais d’après la doc de l'ambassade que j'ai (cité plus haut), ils n'ont "pas l'air" de le demander.
Néanmoins dans le même pb, (je suis passé a air france) et ils m'ont prit des exemple et l'allez (sans retour) est 2 a 3 fois plus cher que l'allez-retour.
Ce qui implique donc forcément une date "retour" avant même le départ !!!
1)
Alors peut-être qu'on peut trouvé mieux qu'air france, ou que l'on peut prendre une assurance report (j'y connais rien)
je me permettrai de vous conseiller la chose suivante : Prenez un visa simple entree en france, faites-le prolonger en thailande, et au bout des 90 jours, allez dans une ambassade de thailande situee dans un pays limitrofe pour en obtenir un nouveau.( prevoyez le prix du visa vers cet autre pays).
Oui, si 1) ne pose pas pb, c'est ce que je pense faire d'après vos conseils.
Si je peux resté plus de 3 mois je compte allé sur Kuala Lumpur, a partir de ce pays :
2)
Le prix du visa simple entrée pour la Thaïlande est'il du même ordre que ce que l'on paie en France ?
3)
L'obtient-on rapidement ?
4)
Est-on sûr de l'obtenir (qu'est ce qu'il faut penser a ne pas oublier), pour ne pas avoir de pb et être au final bloqué en Malaisie ...
bonjour,
voici quelques elements qui repondront , je l'espere, a vos questions .
Le probleme du billet d'avion : je sais de fait que lufthansa permet de changer la date de retour d'un billet, moyennant 100 euros ; cela peut vous permettre de prendre un billet aller-retour france-thailande pour une duree de 3 mois (pardon, 90 jours), puis de le modifier. il me semble que cela doit etre le cas aussi avec d'autres compagnie aerienne, concurrence oblige. Sachez en outre que l'achat d'un billet d'avion pour une destination proche vous coutera moins cher a l'achat en thailande (moins de 200 euros pour un aller-retour bangkok-kuala lumpur, source Air asia)
le prix d'un visa simple-entree en thailande : le prix est sensiblement le meme, un peu moins cher, compte tenu du change.
delais d'obtention : 24h a priori ; renseignez-vous sur les horaires des ambassades de thailande dans le pays ou vous aller le demander, en sachant que les depots de demandes se font en general le matin, et le passeport avec le visa a retirer le lendemain en debut d'apres-midi.(note : le visa ne debutera Que lorsque vous entrerez a nouveau en Thailande)
a savoir si il vous sera accorder, ma reponse sera, a priori oui, sachant que c'est toujours a la discretion de l'ambassade.
cordialement
Sur vos conseils, je pense que je vais donc prendre un simple entrée car :
Dans le cas d'un Simple Entrée, ou je peux rester plus :
Les 100€ d’éventuel report de vol, je peux peut-être les compenser en partie avec le vol allez-retour bangkok-kuala acheté moins cher sur place.
Dans le cas d'un Double Entrée, ou je ne peux rester que 3 mois :
Je perd 30€ (la deuxième extension) + le prix du vol (prit par obligation de l'ambassade avant de partir) de kuala-bangkok
La première méthode est aussi peut-être plus souple au final, et permet de naviguer a vu, sans ce stresser avec des vols déjà pris, et de l'argent dépensé pour rien.
Je n'ai plus que 2 questions :
lufthansa permet de changer la date de retour d'un billet, moyennant 100 euros
1 - Il y a une limite de temps ?, parce que si on a 1 mois pour faire le report ou une autre connerie du genre, ça change tout !
2 - Qu'est ce qu'il ne faut pas oublier (inventaire), et prendre pour pouvoir faire ça 2ièm demande de visa sans encombre via Kuala Lumpur ? (car s'il manque juste un truc, j'imagine que le visa ne sera pas attribué et donc on reste bloqué en malaisie avec un vol toujours en cours thailande-france, 3 mois plus tard, sans pouvoir rejoindre la thailande et qui de plus est, pour y resté 3 mois ...)
C'est en fait le point stressant !

Hi everyone,
I have to leave for Perth, Australia in a week, for 7 days, and I couldn’t get my international driver’s permit due to processing and delivery delays.
The information I’ve found about whether an international permit is required is contradictory. Some sources say you need one, others say you don’t.
Could anyone let me know if an international driver’s permit is necessary to rent a car in Australia (Perth), or if a French license is enough for a 7-day rental?
hi everyone,
I need to apply for a new eTA for Canada.
do I need the number from my old eTA or not?
because I can’t find my old eTA number anymore.
thanks for your replies, have a great weekend
Hi there,
I know there are similar topics here and elsewhere, but they’re a few years old, and I need an up-to-date answer to make sure I don’t throw over 1000 € out the window. Thanks for your patience.
I’m planning a trip from France to Alberta/British Columbia, and I’m unsure about which bank card to use for the security deposit with the rental company (I’m thinking of going with AVIS).
I contacted Avis Canada, and they told me a credit card is absolutely required. I asked my bank for a credit card (a *real* credit card), but they only offered me a deferred debit card.
My question: For a rental with Avis Canada, is a Gold International Mastercard deferred debit card usable for the security deposit needed to finalize the rental? Is the "CREDIT" label enough? (Some cards say "CREDIT" and others say "CARTE DE CREDIT"—seems minor, but it’s actually a big deal in how the card works.)
I’ve seen conflicting info everywhere I look... My bank says it’s *usually* okay (the deferred debit card), while Avis Canada insists it *must* be a credit card, not debit—even when I mention the deferred debit card.
I know the whole credit card concept is already confusing, and on top of that, some sites say a deferred debit card counts as a credit card, while others say it doesn’t.
Thanks to anyone who can share a recent experience!
Have a great day
Hello everyone,
Could a resident of Benin (Cotonou) kindly let me know which is the best mobile phone and internet service provider?
Thank you very much,

Hi,
I’m bringing Seresta, an anxiolytic (tranquilizer) from the benzodiazepine family,
to help me sleep.
I’ll have the prescription with me.
Will this be a problem at customs, and do I need to declare it?
Same question for antibiotics?
Thanks a bunch!
Hi everyone,
I’ll explain my situation.
Unfortunately, I lost my passport, and I only realized it two weeks before my departure for a humanitarian mission in Libya. I’m a nurse, and this mission really means a lot to me.
First, I applied for an emergency passport, but it was denied by the Val-d'Oise prefecture on the grounds that a planned humanitarian mission wasn’t considered an urgent reason.
So, I submitted a biometric passport application on July 20th. Since then, the tracking has been stuck, and the town hall can’t (or won’t) give me any clear information. Every time I call, I get a different story. The last update I received was that the passport had been produced since July 23rd with a status of "about to be shipped," but nothing since then.
I’ve managed to push my departure back to next Tuesday at the latest, but I’m starting to really panic.
Have any of you submitted an application around July 20th, especially in Val-d'Oise (95)? How long did you wait between the passport being produced and it being available at the town hall? Is it normal for this step to take this long?
This mission means so much to me. I had everything organized, and I’m also supposed to attend a friend’s wedding right after near the border.
Thanks so much to those who take the time to respond or share their experience. 😔
Can anyone tell me exactly if a passport "valid for the duration of the stay" is enough, or does it need to be valid for 6 months after the trip?
I checked the embassy’s website, but that info is missing.
Hi there,
I’ll be arriving in Seoul on November 18th after spending about a month in India.
Do you know if I’ll need to fill out any additional documents besides the e-arrival card?
Thanks in advance for your tips!
I’m a bit embarrassed because I need to travel to Quebec from February 27th to March 13th. I’m a regular visitor to Canada—this will be my 10th trip since 1997, plus a year as a permanent resident (2000–2001) and a cross-country run from Vancouver to Halifax in 2011. So, I’m definitely not a terrorist!
But since our last trip in July 2015, they’ve introduced this eTA thing. Seems more like a way to make money than to actually secure Canada, if you ask me, but anyway, that’s not the point.
I applied for an eTA for myself, my wife, and our two kids. They all got approved within hours, but not me! I was asked to create a GC key and then an IRCC account, which I did. Normally, you get news within 72 hours, but since Monday, January 15th, nothing!
In the "message" section of the account, it says "explanation letter (required)" with a deadline of January 25th, but I can’t find any explanation anywhere—despite searching the Canadian government website and Google. No links, nothing!
I’ve emailed them but haven’t heard back yet. I’m thinking of calling the Canadian embassy in Paris tomorrow. Even though I’m not stressing yet, it’d be a bummer if everyone else got to go without me!
If anyone’s had this issue before or knows what this explanation letter is about, I’d love to hear more.
hi there
I’m heading to Seoul in September, and to do that I need to get a travel authorization that we apply for through K-ETA....... turns out I can (barely, I admit) fill out the form up to the address of our "stay location," but every address I’ve entered has been rejected by the system. I’ve tried my hotel, the Lotte Hotel (which is well-known in Seoul), the airport—basically, I’ve entered at least 20 addresses, all rejected....
So, to anyone who’s successfully gotten the authorization, could you tell me which address you used to get that "elusive" approval?...
Question for those who’ve done it:
In theory (French national), I’m visa-exempt for a 30-day tourist stay, but on France Diplomatie it says on this page
Hi there,
I’m heading to Senegal in January for a month and was wondering if I just need my French driver’s license or if I should get an international permit?
Thanks!

I’m heading to Laos next spring, but I have a question about the Thai arrival/departure form. I’ll be flying PAR-BKK, then taking the train to Laos (so exiting Thailand), and later re-entering Thailand by train to catch my return flight. Do I need to fill out two forms in this case?
Hi there,
I have a 9-seater passenger vehicle that I use for my business in Paris, transporting people.
I’m planning to go to Algeria with my family.
The vehicle registration lists my company as the owner.
Can I get a TPD (Temporary Admission Document)?
Will I need a KBis extract or a power of attorney?!?
Thanks for your help.
Worst case, I can add my personal name as a co-owner on the registration, but that would be a real shame!
Hi,
I’m writing to ask for some info—I’ve heard that you **must** have travel insurance to land in Zanzibar.
What’s the process, and which insurance should I get?
Thanks in advance for your feedback!

Hi, are there any travelers who’ve recently crossed the border between Karakalpakstan (Uzbekistan) and Beineu in Kazakhstan?
It was closed for a while.
Thanks for any info!
I bought a one-way flight (Ryanair) and a return flight (EasyJet) to spend a week in Morocco in April.
My passport expires 3 weeks after the return date.
Some websites say the passport must be valid for 3 months at the time of entry.
However, it will still be valid both on entry and return, but its validity will only be 1 month at the time of entry (and 3 weeks on the return date, everything prepaid).
It's an individual family trip.
The consulate can't give me an answer—they're still looking into it (really!)
Last year, we stayed for 3 months in Thailand, north of Khao Lak, and were able to benefit from the 2-month visa exemption, renewable for one month by going to Takua Pa to validate a 1-month extension (1,900 baht).
This year, it’s a disaster for us—not only were we planning a 4-month stay, adding a visa run in between (which some say is quite risky), but the law is apparently changing in the coming months with the return of the 1-month exemption (plus the usual 1-month option). So, we looked into applying for a 6-month multiple-entry visa, allowing a maximum of 60 consecutive days in Thailand. However, I can’t find anywhere the minimum time required outside Thailand between two stays—do any of you have an idea?
Thanks for the info! If you’d like tips on Khao Lak and the surrounding areas, we’ve got some experience, though things change fast!
Cheers,
Bruno.
My partner, our 8-year-old daughter, and I are going on vacation to Gex.
We’ve decided to spend one day in Switzerland and another in Italy. Will we need ID (national ID card or passport)? Do we also need ID for our daughter?
Hello,
We’ll soon be moving to Madagascar long-term.
As a French national, I need to obtain a short-stay visa that can be converted to a long-stay one. To do this, I have to send the required documents to the Madagascar embassy in Paris.
No issues with that procedure so far.
If I get this visa, once I arrive in Madagascar, I’ll need to provide the same documents to the Ministry of the Interior in Anosy. I’m trying to find an email address or website for the Ministry to check which documents I need to submit (I think they ask for additional ones).
If you have any info on this, I’d appreciate your replies.
Best regards,
M. Buisson Eric
I’d like to know if anyone has already applied for a private visa to Russia with an invitation from a Russian resident.
I traveled earlier this year with an e-visa, but since I want to stay longer, I’ll be visiting my friend who lives in eastern Russia.
For the visa application, does the invitation need to be on an official paper form issued by the Russian ministry? And most importantly, do I need to present the original for the application, or is there an electronic version that can be sent directly to the consulate in France?
Thanks for any info if you’ve gone through this process before!
I filled out the B2 form to apply for a visa, created an account on Atvis to pay the visa fees and schedule a meet-up, but every time I try to pay with my Boursobank Visa 1st card, they refuse the payment with a message telling me to check my details (address), even though everything is correct. Does anyone know why this is happening, or maybe they don’t accept Visa cards? Are you aware of this?
Thanks for your feedback!
Elisabeth
There are rumors going around about the ETA: it must absolutely be on your smartphone in the "ETA" app.
Paper documents might not be accepted.
Is this real or just a hoax?
Thanks, I’m leaving in 3 weeks. My passport is good to go and my ETA is still valid for a year, but I only printed the email I received.
Thanks everyone.
Hi there,
We need to apply for a B2 visa because we visited Iran in 2018. It currently costs $185, but they’re planning an additional $250 fee per person for the same visa—it’s been approved but not yet implemented. Does anyone know when this fee will take effect?
Thanks in advance!

Hi there,
In November, we're heading off on a 4-month trip. We'll be landing in China and plan to leave the country via a land border into Vietnam.
I’ve read that China may ask for proof of exit within 30 days (flight ticket or other reservation). Since we’d be leaving by land, I’m wondering how this works in practice.
Has anyone here been in this situation recently?
Did the airline ask for an exit ticket before boarding?
Did Chinese authorities require proof upon arrival?
Is a train/bus ticket to Vietnam sufficient?
Is a cancelable or flexible reservation accepted?
Hi there,
Just a question that’s probably been asked before (though usually the other way around for my situation :))
My wife and I are heading to the US.
On her ticket, it only has her maiden name (e.g., Martine DUPOND).
On her passport, it’s written as Martine DUPOND épouse AVRY.
No issues for travel, I hope I did the right thing with the ticket?
Then for the ESTA, is just Martine DUPOND enough, or do I need to include the "épouse AVRY" part like on the passport?
Thanks in advance!
Hi there,
I’m spending a few days in San Pedro de Atacama (Chile) and would like to cross the Argentine border to make a loop toward Salta and then return to Chile to drop off the rental car.
I’ve heard that crossing the border can be tricky!
Is it possible with a rental company’s authorization? Which company, and at what cost?
Thanks for sharing your experiences!
Best regards,
Arnale
I saw on the French Embassy in Peru’s website and the Peruvian Consulate in Paris’s site that the rule is to have a passport valid for 6 months *after the arrival date* (not the return date).
I arrive in Peru on August 13, 2019 (for about twelve days), and my passport is valid until February 16, 2020.
That’s 6 months and 3 days after my arrival date in Peru. In my opinion, I’m good to go.
But could I still be denied entry if they say I don’t cover the return date or that I’m too close to the 6-month mark?
I read on the French Ministry of Foreign Affairs website that it’s possible to apply for a temporary driving permit in China, valid for 1 month.
I’m planning to rent a car (without a driver) to explore part of the country next August, so I was wondering:
Has anyone here already gone through this process upon arrival?
How long do the formalities take on the spot?
Is it possible to handle these steps in advance, before arriving in China?
