TLDR : Answer Summary
The post discusses whether a British passport holder can re-enter Thailand after a short trip to Malaysia on a visa-exempt entry. The general consensus from comments is that he can re-enter Thailand without issues, receiving another 60-day stay upon return, as he is currently on a 60-day visa exemption.

I have a friend coming to Thailand late October, he is happy to rent a condo for a year . He told me it was pointless him getting a retirement visa like I got as he will just enter for 60 days then extend 30 days and fly to either Laos , Cambodia or Vietnam for week then return and repeat it again .I told him that the Thai immigration might not allow him 4 entries to stay over a year. He thinks I’m being over cautious, which I might be, however reading some posts on here it might be him being ambitious. He did say he might return to uk for a wedding in may for two weeks. What’s his chances ? I know the visa system is new so might not have been tested for multiple entries, he doesn’t want to pay £800 + for a 15 retirement visa or put 800k baht in Thai bank he said he’d rather use it to travel a bit more . Is his plan viable ?

after 180 days he'll likely start having issues. Regardless of if he returns to the UK for 2 weeks or not. Immigration will accuse him (rightly) of trying to live in Thailand without a proper visa and eventually they'll deny him entry and force him to buy a plane ticket out on the spot.

Where's he from ? Some foreigners can enter Thailand on free visa or VOA but not Malaysia. If he can enter Thailand when he arrives I don't see why he can't re-enter after 72 hours I think away.

Have he promised you a job?

Yes he can enter to Thailand again and get 60 days again to stay.

Yes, British get 60 days visa exempt.

Enjoy your holiday in Malaysia.

If he has a British passport, he is currently on a 60 day visa exemption. If he leaves Thailand then returns, he will get another 60 days exemption. So, everything will be fine! Don’t worry.

depending on what airport he returns to and how many times he has done this :)

Sounds like he doesn't have a Visa but entered free on a Visa Exempt 60 day stamp, the same he will get when returning from Malaysia
