Hi all,

I am almost at the end of a 30 day tourist Visa, and want to stay another 60 days. I understand that I can either do a border run (Mae Sai is closest) or go to Immigration here in Chiang Rai and pay more for an extension - but which one is better?

Should I do border run this time and immigration next time? ..or the other way around? ..or does is not really matter?

THANKS IN ADVANCE, Chris =)
