Pouvez vous me confirmer que ce schéma de voyage est possible sans prendre de visa:
- semaine 1: arrivée à Bangkok et semaine en Thaïlande du Nord
- semaine 2: vol Bangkok - Ha noi (Vietnam) pour passer une semaine au Vietnam du Nord et découvrir la baie d'Ha Long (normalement plus besoin de visa pour le vietnam pour les séjour de moins de 14j si je ne me trompe)
- semaine 3 : vol Ha noi - Bangkok puis nouvelle semaine en Thailande du sud
Ce qui m'embête c'est la deuxième arrivée à l'aéroport de Bangkok: allons nous être embêtés? Ou vont-il nous refaire une seconde exemption de Visa de 30j? Même si la première date de 15jours avant?
Merci d'avance
ps: nous partons dans 2 semaine c'est un peu du dernier moment ^^
Je pars du principe que vous avez un passeport Français. Pour les problématiques de visa, la nationalité est toujours un élément clé.
Pour la première entrée en Thailande puisque vous aurez en main au moment d'embarquer en France et au moment de rentrer sur le teritoire Thailandais, un billet retour vers la France 3 semaines plus tard (vous confirmez ?)
Pour la partie Vietnam, désolé, je ne connais pas
Pour la seconde entrée en Thailande, aucun problème pour avoir une deuxième exemption de visa. De plus vous aurez une fois de plus en main votre billet retour vers la france montrant que vous quittez le territoire dans les 30 jours. Donc pas de problème
c'est la deuxième arrivée à l'aéroport de Bangkok: allons nous être embêtés
Bonsoir,
Le sujet a été maintes fois traité, ici sur VF.
En régime d'exemption de visa le droit accordé est de 30 jours lorsque vous arrivez en THAILANDE (par voie aérienne et également par voie terrestre pour les pays du G 7 dont la FRANCE fait partie). En ce régime il faut détenir la preuve de sortie de THAILANDE dans les 30 jours accordés.
A la première entrée vous avez votre billet d'avion pour le VIETNAM qui prouve votre sortie dans ce délai de 30 jours.
A la seconde entrée vous avez votre billet de retour (je suppose) vers le FRANCE.
Il n'y a donc pas de crainte à avoir (la nature des deux entrées et séjour est clairement touristique).
La limite (cumulée) des séjours en exemption de visa est de 90 jours au total par période de 180 jours (6 mois) et, vous, vous serez à quelques 14 jours cumulés au total ...
Je ne remets pas les liens vers les sites officiels des ambassades sur ces dispositions : vous les trouverez dans les sujets similaires où je les ai (ainsi que d'autres intervenants) mis en ligne à de multiples reprises.
😛tous commence a l embarquement la date du billet
elle doit correspondre a la durée du visa
toi tu n as pas de visa mais tu ouvre droit au visa arrival
c est 30 jours
on te demande un billet d avion correspondant
mais en Thaïlande si tu quitte et tu reviens tu a droit
a un autre visa de 30 jours
c est la règle visa d exception
Comme Jacques l'a écrit pourquoi venez-vous ajouter des éléments imprécis et inexacts ?
Ce n'est pas un visa (pas plus un " visa d'exception " ni un " visa arrival ") mais une exemption de visa.
Je remets donc les liens vers les sites des ambassades :
www.thaiembassy.fr/...-est-pas-necessaire/
Les ressortissants des pays suivants sont autorisés à entrer en Thaïlande sans visa pour un séjour touristique de moins de 30 jours par voie aérienne ou 15 jours par voie terrestre ( 30 jours pour les pays G7 : les Etats-Unis, le Royaume-Uni, le Canada, la France, l’Allemagne, l’Italie et le Japon)
Si vous entrez de nouveau en Thaïlande par voie terrestre vous bénéficierez d’une autorisation de séjour de 15 jours sauf les pays G7 qui peuvent bénéficier d’une autorisation de séjour de 30 jours, si vous rentrez par voie aérienne elle sera de 30 jours.
www.thaiembassyuk.org.uk/?q=node/188
Foreigners who enter Thailand under this Tourist Visa Exemption category may only do so for 30 days at one time with a maximum of 3 times in a 6 month period. (Passport or travel document must be valid for at least 1 month after the date of first entry).
(....)
Foreigners entering Thailand by any means under the Tourist Visa Exemption category are required at the port of entry to have proof of onward travel (confirmed air, train, bus or boat tickets) to leave Thailand within 30 days of the arrival date (otherwise a tourist visa must be obtained).
Merci beaucoup pour votre réponse au post précédent car elle m'est d'une grande aide.
Pourriez vous me confirmer que dans mon cas, cela ne pose pas de problème non plus si :
- J'arrive le 12 Janvier par avion à Bangkok. Je visite la Thaïlande du Nord et prends un avion pour le Cambodge 28 jours plus tard.
- Je reviens par voie terrestre ou par avion pour visiter la Thaïlande du Sud et je prends un avion pour le Vietnam 28 Jours plus tard.
- Je reviens en Thaïlande une 3ème et dernière fois par voie terrestre (ou par avion) depuis le Laos quelques jours seulement pour prendre mon vol retour jusqu'à Zurich le 17 Mai.
Est-ce que cela est possible sans visa ?
Je bénéficierai donc de 3 exemptions de visa de 30 Jours.
En clair la règle est de ne pas dépasser 90 jours au total en Thaïlande (sur une période de 180 jours), pour ce qui est des entrées, je peux donc entrer 3 fois en Thaïlande, par voie aérienne ou terrestre, sachant que, le nombre d'entrées par voie terrestre est limité à deux par année calendaire.
C'est bien cela ?
Merci par avance pour votre retour et pour votre aide !
Je ne sais pas pourquoi certaines personnes focalisent sur 28 jours, chiffre qu'on voit souvent revenir : l'exemption de visa est de 30 jours, comme vous le disiez vous-même. par contre si vous arrivez en Thaïlande à 23 h et en repartez à 6 h du matin, ça vous comptera déjà deux jours.

C'est OK. Pas de problème pour la Thaïlande. Juste être en possession de votre billet d'avion pour le Cambodge au moment de l'embarquement à Paris ou à une autre place.
Cambodge : visa à l'arrivée.
Vietnam : Si français, exemption de visa si séjour ne dépasse pas 15 jours. Visa pour séjour plus long.

Hi,
I’m planning a trip to Laos from France with a transit through Thailand involving 2 entries. I might spend up to 7 days max in Thailand (round trip).
The flight I’ve spotted: arrival at BKK and return to France 31 days later.
With the new regulations/visa:
"Starting September 15, 2026, French nationals holding an ordinary passport will be able to stay in Thailand visa-free for up to 30 days for tourism purposes only, down from the previous 60 days."
How do you think the counting is done?
- Number of days spent in Thai territory?
- Entry and exit dates: number of days between the two?
I’m leaning toward the first option, but to avoid any administrative hassles with Thailand (fines, etc.) and before booking my ticket, your input would really help.
Hi there,
I’m explaining our situation—my daughter and her young family have just moved to Polynesia, specifically to the island of Raiatea. That’s great, of course, and my wife and I are planning to visit them. However, flights that go through the United States are causing us a problem because we’ve been to Cuba. I think we’ll need a visa because of that.
Has anyone else dealt with this situation before? Any advice on flights and visas would be really helpful.
Thanks in advance for your feedback.
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,
we’re planning our trip to the North Cape this summer. We bought a new vehicle for it. Unfortunately, the registration document is still being processed, and the delay seems long—I don’t think I’ll have it in time for our departure...
I have the transfer documents, insurance in my name, and all the supporting paperwork, but not the registration document. So my question is: does the ferry company require the registration document *mandatorily* when boarding in Denmark or not?
Thanks for any insights...
Hi everyone,
I bought a new apartment in Pattaya that will be finished at the end of 2013, and I’d like to buy more later...
I think it’s a good investment idea, but I’d love to hear from those of you with experience—what do you think? I’d also like to know how to handle rentals... Should I go through agencies, or are they usually rented out directly by the building management companies?
Thanks in advance for your replies! 🙂
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?...
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!

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!
Best,

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?
