Hello, if I understand well it is possible to live in Thailand all over the year just by getting a 30 visa exemption, then go to immigration for an additional 30days.

Take a fly out, come back get a 30days exemption and then go to immigration again and do it as much as we want?

I know it is possible to cross the border aswell twice by road but that is not my question.

I have a beautiful Swiss passport.

Thank you for answering :)

Answer summary

A Swiss passport holder can indeed live in Thailand throughout the year by utilizing the 30-day visa exemption, followed by an extension of another 30 days from immigration. By frequently exiting and re-entering Thailand, they can continue to renew the exemption, although it's important to note the regulations surrounding this practice to avoid complications.
