How will this “ new “ rules effect my METV,…can I still go to the land border of Malaysia, in and out the same day.

Or should I fly to Kualalumpur.

Does anyone know what's going on at the Border in non-kai just tried to do a border run today the 15th of November and was turned away saying something about new rules.

I have only been here 45 days and am looking to swap from my Visa exempt to my DTV Visa that took 12 weeks to get through the New York Embassy. I had medical appointments I did not wish to miss so I had to come ahead of my Visa.

We are arriving CNX on Dec 31, with the goal of staying until first week of June. Which option would you recommend:

1. - Enter in 60 day visa exemption, leave TH on day 60, fly to northern VN for 1-2 weeks, return to CNX on visa exemption 60 days and extend for 30 days.

OR

2. Arrive on visa exempt 60 day entry, extend for 30 days, leave TH 1-2 weeks, and reenter on 60 day visa exemption.

Is there an advantage for one over the other, mostly regarding reentry? Better to leave after 60 days and try for extension on second entry?

I’ve been toiling over this and can’t see one way better than the other, but maybe I’m missing something. Thanks as always for your counsel!

Hi, does anybody have a recommendation for border run/ visa run by land from Koh Chang? Cambodia is nearest. But border is closed at the moment.

Thank you 🙏

DTV Border Run?

Hey everyone. I’m nearing my 360 days for my DTV, all my 90 day check-ins, and my 180 day extension were all done to the exact dates, and everything is in order.

But I’m wondering if anyone has had any issues leaving Thailand and returning back with DTV?

Can I do a border run? Do I have to be out of Thailand for a certain amount of time? Do they re-check credentials when re-entering?

Any insights would be appreciated 🙏🏼

If I fly into Bangkok and get the 60 day visa and then towards the end of that go elsewhere for a week or so and then fly back in to Thailand will I get another 60 days?
