ORIGINAL POSTERTLDR : Answer Summary
The discussion revolves around the process of extending a stay in Thailand through border runs to Cambodia. Users share mixed experiences and advice, suggesting that a departure and re-entry (for DTV visa holders) grants another 180 days without needing an extension from immigration. There are cautions against relying too heavily on Cambodia for border runs due to current restrictions and reduced operational hours. It is also highlighted that too many border runs might lead to re-entry denial. Extension fees at immigration offices and the necessity of a 90-day report are mentioned as part of maintaining legal status.
