Can I use my approved E-Visa after finishing my 30 days visa exemption in Thailand?

My E-Visa was approved only a few days after I entered Thailand. So I am currently on the 30 days visa exemption.

If I do a Visa Run now, could I use the approved E-Visa? Or would I just get another 30 days?

TLDR : Answer Summary
The user inquired whether an approved E-Visa could be used immediately after finishing the 30-day visa exemption in Thailand. Responses suggested that it is possible to conduct a Visa Run and to present the approved E-Visa PDF at border control to obtain a stamped entry using the E-Visa. Additionally, there were questions about potential extensions for the E-Visa.

60 days entry on tourist visa is eligible for 30 days tourism extension ONCE for most of nationlities.

You might as well stay the 30 days you're allowed on this free entry stamp. There's no down side to doing that

You need to print out the PDF file <- as that IS your visa from your email.

Go to the border, stamp out of thailand, stamp in & out of another country, present the eVisa PDF and your passport when you go to stamp back in and you will get stamped in on that visa no issue at all

and he can get the 30 days extension of stay added to his 30 day Visa Exempt Entry if he wants to get a longer time staying in Thailand.

Then do the border bounce by land or air to use the Evisa he has received after he entered Thailand.
