ORIGINAL POSTER

I just did a border crossing at Mae Sai. Beside my stamp, the immigration officer wrote “Walk [2]”

Is that to signify that I’ve crossed twice in a calendar year?

TLDR : Answer Summary

The notation 'Walk [2]' likely indicates that you have crossed the border two times within the same calendar year, as per Thai immigration practice. It's best to verify with immigration for any specific implications regarding your visa status.
