Are land border visa runs in Thailand limited to two per calendar year?
Can someone clarify whether the land based border runs, with either 30 days or 15 days depending on your country of origin, are limited to two a a calendar year please. Two from the 1st January to 31st December. Thank you.
Answer summary
In Thailand, land-based border runs are limited to two entries per calendar year. This applies to the 30-day visa exemption for most nationalities. The previous option of a 15-day visa exemption by land has been eliminated, reverting to the 30-day policy.

there are no more 15 day visa exempt entries by a land border, they went back to 30 days when they put the limit of TWO in a calendar year.
