Can I do border runs to extend my stay in Thailand using a 60-day visa exemption?

If you come to Thailand, Bangkok, please think of us. We have taxis with safe standards. 669228338755

Yes its a 60 days voa, completely normal.

So what’s your point

I too have a question.

What is your question?

I have done it 4 times this year but I’m always out for at least 30 days and overall I’m out of Thailand more than I’m in Thailand.

But the real answer unfortunately is YMMV.

Too many is defined only in the mind of your particular immigration officer.

Borderline

Max 2 time per year with car/taxi

Buss/boat

I just went ahead and got a DTV visa. Required:

1. Cost USD B$400

2. You do have to show that you’re working for a company, that you have at least $15,000 in the bank.

3. the place to stay in Thailand.

They did ask me for a copy of my current tax returns from the IRS .

The entire process took about five weeks total . 

Reason why I got this visa is it is a multiple entry visa good for five years and you could stay in Thailand six months per visit. This is a good visa because if something happens and your current plans, do not work out with whomever you are staying with in Thailand. You could always move out and stay somewhere else on your own. You don’t have to leave when the relationship breaks up. You can just simply go to Bangkok or wherever and get yourself a house or an apartment for under $500 a month and live like a local. And also you don’t need a two way ticket 

What about using 2 different passports alternatively to enter ?

First time?

Understanding is from these groups, no longer a limit on land sea air crossings. Thailand want tourists along with every other country.

Visa agent told me yesterday in Pattaya, you can do border run as many times you like..

I just got back from Cambodia Monday overnight toyesterday. Been doing it for a year. Cambodia 3 times and Malaysia 2 twice

Who's doing that? Better to get 30 day extension before doing a border bounce ( and can do it same day, no need to leave for days)

Just avoid female immigration officers at the airport, everyone I know questioned was by a female

My husband and I are thinking of moving to Thailand can we come and get a long term visa without having to leave and come back for extension. Can we come and get a visa to live only? Please and thank you.

I don’t see a question being asked. What you type is correct if you have a USA passport or holding one that Thailand allows a 60 days visa exemption.

Yes

How is Vietnam for a quick visit?

You can do 2 land crossings then you have to fly out to renew again

I did it!!! I like to get a stamp in the country I visit, so they border agent has something to look at

Yes

You can probably do it twice. After that, Immigration might look at it and decide you are not a tourist. All depends on who checks you

And ?

On the new DTV, is there a service someone will take your passport to Cambodia or something get it stamped and bring it back for you if you’re not physically able to travel for it?

Come in on 60 days.

Get 30 days more from immigration for 1900 baht.

Fly to KL come back and repeat. Did it last year. Very easy process. 👍

Yes?

No more than 3-4 times per year , normally....it depends on how weak up an immigration officer

You only do that if you don't know you can go to immigration and get a 30 day extension for 1900 baht. Then you do a border bounce and can get another 60+30 days. You can only do that for so long though before immigration may start to think you're trying to live here on visa exempt and will tell you to get a long term visa and/or deny you entry.

I'm on it! For 2 months, I did the extension for another 30 days (total 90 days). I will be traveling to Vietnam for a weekend vacation and then go back and hopefully get another 2-month stamp.

So what's your question?
