If I'm going to Laos, especially if it's to apply for a DTV visa, can I just go by bus? To get a visa on entry, they say one needs to have a return ticket already booked, and the same goes for the Thai embassy in Laos when applying for DTV.

My question: can this return ticket simply be a return bus ticket? Or does it necessarily have to be a plane ticket? And if so, please explain why. I need answers from people who have a clear answer from someone who knows, not someone who's just guessing and think they know.

Thanks!

In Phnom Penh,have a certificate from Muay Thai school, I'm heading to ho chi Minh for dtv. Can I cross by land , apply in ho chi Minh, flights are pretty spendy right now . I can't imagine it would matter? Thanks all.

Hi everyone,

I know there previously was a limit of 2 Border Crossings per calendar year for Visa Free entry, but since late last year, the new Gvt wanting to increased tourism numbers changed it to 4 per calendar year until further notice... Can anyone having recently had multiple border crossings ( by Land or Air) within the same calendar year share their experience with Immigration Officers when trying to re-enter Thailand.

Thanks

Nong Khai border cross today and no questions asked very smooth for DTV workcation first entry

I have a 90 day E Visa for Thailand but need to stay another 21 days

What are my options. Apply for extention or do a border crossing.

What documents do I need for an extention

DTV ISSUE: I am in Da Nang, they have said I still have a valid tourist visa, so I must wait until this expires and re-submit application. I have another month until it expires, has anyone had this response? Do I have to leave and come back to Vietnam in a month? re-upload all documents? pay again? Thanks!

Email reads "You still has valid TR visa. Please wait under the visa is expired and resend this application again"

Hello everyone!

When issuing a visa do they look at the presence of multiple stamps and previous stays in the Thai?

Over the past year there are 3 stamps for 60 days each extended by border in Satun

Good day! I am here on a multi entry visa and my time to exit (60 days)and return is upon me. Is it advisable to use a company that takes you across border and back same day to get new visa stamp or take a flight out and return? What is the difference and is one option better than the other? Thanks in advance for any help in clearing this up!

Does anyone have experience crossing the border with a DTV visa?

I am in the middle of my first 180 days on my DTV visa. As I will be in Ranong area in the next month, I am thinking about going over the border at Ranong/Kawthaung and getting stamped in again. I know tourists are border-bouncing and getting visa-exempt entries at that border. I'm not sure if a DTV entry (with 180 day stamp) is also possible at Kawthaung: does anyone have experience with this?
