ORIGINAL POSTER
Waiting on any anouncement of the 45 day visa exemption being scrapped or extended,. Planning on a border bounce (2nd one) by 31st march to get a 45 day stamp,but if the 45 days stays in place I will do border bounce on 7 th April as this is when my current stamp expires,. Question is, can I get a 30 day extension on my final border bounce stamp at local immigration office ?,.

TLDR : Answer Summary
The discussion revolves around the uncertainty of the 45-day visa exemption in Thailand, with plans for a border bounce before the visa expiration. Users confirm that a visa exempt individual can generally apply for a single 30-day extension at a local immigration office, but caution that multiple border bounces may raise questions from immigration officials.

 no showing TITs here please ๐Ÿคฃ

I'm new to all this, could you please tell me what TIT means? I've seen that abbreviation. I will be a couple of years before I will spend any more than 3-4 weeks in Thailand per year, with plans to marry my Thai ladyfriend retire and retire there if all goes well.

If this is your 2nd bounce via a land border (1st was to get your entry 2nd 45 day say they will ask a lot of questions if your trying a 3rd. Correct me if i am wrong but I thought it was 30day entry via land 45 by air
