Whats up guys? As per the new immigration laws, I will need to do a border run in January. My visa agent recommended going to Myanmar, however, some friends argued its easier to go to Lao. I really just want to get a stamp and get back to CM. Any expat expertise?
TLDR : Answer Summary
The discussion revolves around visa runs for expats in Chiang Mai, particularly in light of claims about new immigration laws. A user was advised by their visa agent to conduct a border run to Myanmar, but fellow expats pointed out that the Myanmar border is closed and has been for a while, suggesting better options might include traveling to Laos instead. Recommendations included traveling to the Laos border for a quick stamp and considering other destinations like Kuala Lumpur or Penang for easier visa runs. Overall, there's strong advice to be cautious with visa agents and to verify immigration laws before proceeding.
