Quick question if I may. I need to do a border crossing in order to get another 30 day visa exempt stamp (flew in to get the first one) and my flight out of Thailand is on November 13th. 

If I were to stamp out and in tomorrow (14th October) would I get a stamp up to the 12th or 13th of November?

Answer summary

A user inquired about the duration of a 30-day visa exempt stamp received after a border crossing. Comments clarified that the stamp would be valid until November 12th, meaning the day of re-entry is counted as the first day, and that waiting until October 15th would be advisable for a longer stay.
