What should I be aware of when going through the Mae Sai border regarding visa exemptions?
Mae Sai border update:
Overall a breeze and very friendly immigration officers, BUT I got a visa exemption for 90 days while I’m eligible for only 30 days. I went back and they fixed it. I didn’t want to run into troubles of overstay or while I fly out due to not having the correct visa. Always check your visa stamp.
Also no proof-ofz were asked for.
Have a nice day bois and gals.
