What should I know about travelling to Thailand and visa regulations for long stays?

Just thought I’d make people aware of my journeys to SEA over the last year do that it may alleviate some worries people have about immigration and entering Thailand. 

I came to Thailand mid November 2024. I spent 60 days here. 

I then visited Laos for one week before flying back to Thailand. 

I spent 60 days here then got a 30 day extension. 

In April 2025 I returned to the UK. 

TOTAL: 5 months. 

In November 2025 I returned to Thailand. 

After 2 weeks, I visited Vietnam and Cambodia for 3 weeks before returning to Thailand yesterday. 

My visa exempt has another 60 days stamp. 

I always felt like immigration would be ok with my travelling but hopefully my travelling history can help someone if they have concerns.

Oh FFS. If people can't discern what Thai immigration is trying to get across in no uncertain terms then they deserve to be shipped back. At least in the zombie apocalypse movies there is a safe zone. Not so for visa groups where the brain rot seems endless.

that's 179 days visa-exempt stays since the beginning of 2025, not added the 14 days in December which would bring us to a full year period on today's date. . . . . . . . I would say that you are very lucky. You did one extension. . . Let's see what's gonna happen next, because there is nothing such as a "reset" when the new year starts. . . . . I am very curious to read from you, again

If we compile a dataset of travel itineraries like this, we can use machine learning algorithms to infer what a plausible national immigration policy might be.
