I'm coming to Thailand for about 70 days. I know I can get a TR tourist visa ahead of time for 60 days if scuba training (unless I've misunderstood). My question is, how does one visit neighboring countries (Cambodia, Laos) and not mess up the visa length?

TLDR : Answer Summary
The user is planning a 70-day stay in Thailand and is considering a TR tourist visa for 60 days, possibly for scuba training. They are inquiring about the visa implications of traveling to neighboring countries like Cambodia and Laos. Comments suggest options such as obtaining a re-entry permit to maintain visa validity, the possibility of getting new 30-day visa exemptions upon re-entry, and advice on timing to manage visa expiry.

Re-entry permit or just time it so it makes sense visa-wise and you can apply for a new visa at the country you're visiting if needed.

Reentry permit, or if you're close to the visa expiry you can just exit and enter back in on exempt

1. You can get a reentry permit to keep your visa valid, but because it's expensive

2. Every time you enter into Thailand you'll get a new 30 days, you are limited to doing this 2x at land borders, but not limited if you fly in.

if you leaving between you get on your 70days. - otherwise you need a RE-entry stamp, cause your normal Tr visa is single entry - setv , there is a metv as well, more complicated to do.

what is your passport? you might get 30days visa excemption and can extend 30 days in the country.
