I’m going to Thailand early January 

We are staying in Thailand 23 days then flying to Cambodia for 3 nights 

We will then return to Thailand for 18 days

The way I understand it is that we are eligible for a 30 day visa exemption then a fresh visa exemption when we return for the second stay ? Am I right?

Please and thanks 

🙏
