As an Australian, can i get a 45 day waiver on reentry at Chiang Kong? I am planning to do a border run to Laos in early January from Chiang Mai at Chiang Kong. I arrived in Chiang Mai on November 1st. I have a 45 day waiver which I hope to get extended by 30 days in December. Does anyone know if i can get another 45 day waiver at Chiang Kong, or is it only 30 days?
