I have a DTV visa, and I want to make sure I'm meeting all the requirements to keep it valid. Besides the 90-day report and the visa run every 180 days, is there anything else I need to do? Any advice or updates would be greatly appreciated!

Not sure how to ask this, but how safe are visa land border run's on those mini-vans?

I mean the vans itself and the drivers. Some friends have telling me to avoid them due to accidents, but i don't find that many in last few years.

From bangkok.

Looking for recommendations for reputable border run companies based in Bangkok. I see many people suggesting these services over doing a border run via air, but I don’t see anyone suggesting specific companies.

What is your favorite border run agency from BKK to Cambodia?

Hi what’s the best way to do a border run from hua hin?

I have 3 inquiries, can anyone advise :

1) if one stays in Thailand for only 6 months each year , would that mean he only need to do ONE-TIME visa run this way ? :

> Flight to Thailand

> 60 days + 30 days (extension)

> Border RUN ( by flight/road)

> 60 days + 21 days (extension)

> Flight out of Thailand

(Total stay <180 days in Thailand per year )

2) "Visa run" and "border run" means the same thing right ?

3) Is the above method feasible - would this be safe from being questioned by the officers ?

What is the best and closest country to fly to that does not require a visa for someone from the United States? How long should I stay until flying back to Thailand?

Did not keep updated. My non O visa 90 day + 60 day extension for visiting child ends next week.

Looking around it looks like I have to leave even before applying for new Visa?

Any potential work arounds or advice on this?

Info suggests long waits in neighbour countries like laos.

I've done a lot of visa runs, extensions, including land border runs in Laos and Myanmar. But I've been mostly living out of Thailand for over a year, but still visited and extended. When I use this passport I get asked what I'm doing in Thailand. Should I not get a DTV until I get a fresh passport? Or is this not a problem?
