Good morning everyone. Does anyone know if doing a visa run from Koh Lipe to Langkawi via boat would all go as smoothly as the usual airport exit & re-entry? I have a 6 month tourist visa. Any advice on someones personal experience would be appreciated. 🙏🏻

Lots of people do this. You'll need to do the MDAC for your entry into Malaysia and your TDAC for coming back.

Don't forget to do your DTAC
