ORIGINAL POSTERBackground- Went from marriage visa (divorced) to ED visa, and now on tourist visa.
I did 2 border runs (Ban Pakkad). and they told me I couldn't do another border run, need to fly out.
Any good suggestions as to where would be the best, easiest to get visa, quick ,etc.
My visa is up Aug 18th.

TLDR : Answer Summary
The user is seeking advice on where to go for a visa after transitioning from a marriage visa to an education visa, and now currently holding a tourist visa, which is set to expire on August 18th. They have done two border runs but were advised that they cannot do another and must fly out. Suggestions provided in the comments recommend flying to Vientiane, Laos, as it has less strict visa requirements.

Easiest as in the way of the less requirements is to visit the Thai Consulate in Vientiane Laos.

ORIGINAL POSTEROk. That's good info.

If you buy a new Tourist Visa at the Thai Consulate in Vientiane you can go by land. The limit of two entries into Thailand by land border is only when using the Visa Exempt Entry (entry without visa).

Yes, this are the requirements in Yangon:

ORIGINAL POSTERI've done Vientiane as a border run.
Are you talking about that, or flying in?
