Hello, lets say i am currently in Thailand on a non o visa based in marrage. If I go to Vietnam for a few nights and come back, is there any reason I would be denied a visa exempt entry for 30 days?

In theory no, there's no reason you couldn't enter the country on a 30 day visa exempt entry.

I had read somewhere that because I have been in Thailand for a few years they could deny it as it is a "tourist visa" and I am not a tourist. I just need more time for my other visa to be approved (elite visa).

they could indeed deny you entry, but here's a thought IF you're waiting on the elite visa to be approved why not get a letter from them stating that and show it to the people at passport control when you stamp back in visa exempt?

you wouldn't be comin' in on ANY visa if you're gonna come in visa exempt 😕

If you wanted to come in on a tourist visa GO to a thai consulate and get one before you come back.
