Can I enter Thailand by land with a 60-day tourist visa obtained in Laos?
I am in going to be to Laos for a little while and I am going to be applying for the 60 day single entry visa. I have already traveled to Myanmar and Cambodia getting my visa on arrival over land twice this year. This brings me to my next question I would like to cross over back into Thailand by land, Is this possible if I get a 60 day tourist visa and cross over by land if I have he got approved and have the visa from the thai embassy in Vientiane? Thank you anyone for you time and help I would appreciate it.

I entered from the US on a 60 day tourist visa. I'm going to Samui for 3p day extension. I will be here till august. Can I do visa runs to Myranmar for the remaining time? If not, what do I need to do to remain legal?

OPYes but to my understanding you can go get a new single entry visa from a thai embassy outside of Thailand and get another 60 days and the another 30 form thai Immigration.

The rule of two land entries in a year only count for 30 day visa exempt entries, not when you're comin' into the country holding a valid visa.

Yes no issue how you come in if you got the 60day
