I have multi entry visa I have to be out by Aug 6 or extend 30 days would it be cheaper to walk across to Myanmar to stamp out go look around then stamp back in later that day or option #2 just pay 1900 baht for 1 month extension this will be at the Chiang rai border

Answer summary

The user is considering two options regarding their multi-entry visa in Thailand: either crossing into Myanmar to stamp out and back in for a short visit or paying 1900 baht for a one-month extension. Comments suggest that crossing into Myanmar might be cheaper, ranging from 500 baht for the crossing fee plus transportation costs, depending on proximity to the border.
