Just a quickie.

I have a Non-immigrant O-A multi-entry Visa from the UK, which runs out at the end of September.  I understand (from reading this site, great site by the way ) if I leave the country and return before it runs out I will get another year without having to do any of the paperwork required for the extension I would otherwise have to apply for here on Koh Samui. My question is will a border bounce by land give me the extra years stamp when I come back in or do I have to enter via an airport. Thanks.

Answer summary

The user has a Non-immigrant O-A multi-entry visa expiring in September and wants to know if a land border bounce will grant them an additional year upon re-entry, as opposed to entering through an airport.
