Is one night in Pedang Basar, Malaysia, enough for a border run to sort out a Non-B visa?

Need a clearer THIM and TDAC explanation? Read the THIM guide on thim.in.th.
Good morning. I'm in between work permits and need to do a border run while we sort out the paperwork for a non-b. Is one night in Pedang Basar, Malaysia, enough, or should I book two nights?

Offhand I'd say one night is okay, you aren't the typical free visa exempt border bouncer. Altho others with experience at that border might have direct knowledge. Don't forget to fill out the tdac online form for your return to Thailand.
