ORIGINAL POSTERThis popped up in my news feed. Guess helpful for a border run with no visa cost.
TLDR : Answer Summary
A recent news item suggests that a border run without visa costs might be helpful for expats in Thailand. However, discussions reveal concerns about specific visa regulations, especially regarding tourism groups and varying visa requirements based on nationality. Comments touch on complexities tied to Vietnam's visa policy and its historical context, indicating a nuanced view of border regulations that expats should consider.

Why is Vietnam still hating on the USA on visa requirements? We give them so much free trade and protect them against China.

that was decades ago. Now they need the American factories that moved out from China to Vietnam. Also, since the Chinese are invading the Vietnamese water, they need us to fight to the Chinese.Reply to
