Is there a 2-week rule for re-entering Thailand after a border run?

@Jae ******

you were discussing individuals not following immigration laws. Your profile reminded me a very egregious offender. They educating yourself on the issue and your hypocrisy may be less apparent.

@Ray ********

Makes perfect sense. Stay senile ✊

@Jae ******

as hominem attacks. The last refuge of the uninformed.

@Ray ********

You don't even know what you're replying about. Senile.

@Ned *******

but jailed for life is fine? Not the death penalty? Or at least dismemberment?

@Oliver *********

Yes, jailed for life is fine. A malicious act with nothing to gain is far more sinister than a malicious act with something to gain. This immigration officer acted with malicious entent but stood to gain nothing therefore the is on the severe end of offending.

@Ned *******

you would have enjoyed the middle ages

@Steve *******

Haih… ok never mind. Go and find out more. I’m not offering my service but this thing really exist if you met the right person. Ok? No point arguing, I’m just giving you extra info. Have a pleasant day!

@Steve *******

which message of mine showing that I’m offering my service? Did I say hello please use my service? Don’t talk nonsense here please.

@Ken **********

Oh geez! Now you delete your original post. Big backflip, bit at least you acknowledge you were wrong!

@Steve *******

Nop. Im not wrong because I admit the service is wrongdoing and I don’t want it to be viral. But I know how to do it 😀

An agent cannot do a border run on your behalf. You have to leave Thailand, stamp into another country, leave that country, stamp back into Thailand. That must be done by the passport holder.

@Steve *******

20 years ago, Jack Golf was doing exactly that, but he got ratted out, his business shuttered and Jack, a Korean national, was booted from Thailand. Now, as you say, one has to be physically present at immigration checkpoints and leave the country.

However, I've found there were (not sure about now) touts at the border who can do the stamping in/out for you (at Aranyaprathet for example) while you wait, but their service fee is twice as high as doing it yourself.

@Ken **********

You're talking nonsense because you're applying covid concessions to the current situation. You ripped off your friend who only had to pay 1900 baht for a 60 day extension during covid. There's no such thing now. An agent cannot do a "ghost" run to a border. You have to physically go. So you're spreading misinformation

@Steve *******

Which is even more suspicious given that the borders were completely sealed during Covid, not just Thailand's but all neighboring countries. Anyone who was permitted to cross had to do a lengthy quarantine. There were essentially no exceptions,

@Steve *******

ur post has NOTHING to do with the OP!!!

OK?

@Richard ********

The OP is telling porkies. He ripped his friend off Baht. Everyone knows the borders were tightly sealed during Covid. All land borders closed in mid to late March 2020 and once they reopened in April 2022 it was only with the Thailand Pass. It wasn't until July 1, 2022 that you could freely cross the border without making pre arrangements.

@Richard ********

You obviously struggle with English. Direct your criticism at the person who raised the COVID era. Read the thread, or get someone to help you

@Ken **********

During Covid time the borders were closed, so even if an agent could do that (they haven't been allowed to for the past 20 years, with the exception of touts located at some of the Cambodian borders, but I think even they've dried up) there's no way they could have been able to cross the border.

The borders were shuttered and no one was coming in or out. Later on, you could cross but with a lengthy quarantine. Don't think an agent would have been willing to spend 28 days in quarantine (14 days in Thailand and 14 in Cambodia) just to do a border run.

Don't forget that there was the Thailand Pass system in place too, so showing up at the border unannounced was impossible.

@Paul ******

no point arguing boss because I’m not offering any service here, you guys can think whatever you want because as I mentioned I’m not offering any service here. Just sharing that’s it or maybe because of my lousy English and I didn’t really explain it well make you misunderstand. Sorry boss…

@Ken **********

where you you find one

@Ken **********

who needs friends like you. Lol
