I am in 60 day visa exempt. How many times can I leave for a couple days and come back? How many days do I get on return?

Answer summary

With a 60-day visa exemption, you can leave and re-enter Thailand multiple times, receiving a new 60-day stamp upon each return. However, immigration officers have become stricter recently, and frequent re-entries (typically more than 3 or 4 months in a year) may lead to questioning or denial of entry. While there are no set limits, it's advised to limit your trips and be cautious with frequent border runs.

In a few days I will be riding to the Cambodian border with a company that provides border run services seven days per week. They promise it will require less than 30 minutes to get a 60 day stamp and we’ll be back on the road home.

In 1.5 year, it’s my 8 times and today they bring me in a office to ask me questions about why I come back a lot, etc. So after I will let cool down and wait 6+ months before coming back. Always depends who you talk at the counter too.

You will receive 60 days every time you enter Thailand.

You can leave and return as many times as they let you. There is no more answer than that. There is no rule or law that says how many times. It's at the discretion of the immigration officer. But they have become much more strict recently, and expect to be pulled out of line and questioned if you spent more than 3 or 4 months in Thailand.
