Hey there I'm holding an Spanish passport and I am now with a Tourist Visa planing to extending in 30 days more , then do a border bounce for visa on arrival. Would I have some problem with that? Will I need a ticket out of Thailand for being able to get that visa? Could I do that one time more?

Would that some issue if in the future I would like to get a non migrant visa such as student one?

I have one Tourist Visa stamp of 2022

Mae Sai-Tachilek border crossing: OK, we've had some recent reports coming out where members were able to cross over to Tachilek, either for the day or longer and it worked out fine.

However, the latest news is that the Burmese military junta has banned foreigners from flying to/from Tachilek and Lashio since May 8th.

Someone over on TripAdvisor claims that there are "rumors on a Thai Facebook group" that foreigners have been banned from crossing this border, just like they have been, since over a month at the Mae Sot-Myawaddy border.

No idea what Facebook group is being referred to, as it doesn't seem to be this one or Expats Thailand.

I was planning on crossing the Mae Sai-Tachilek border in around a month or two from now, but am leaning towards not going anymore due to this uncertainty.

Does anyone know whether things have changed since May 8th? I understand that one member went there very recently but things have a way of changing from one day to the next in Myanmar so what may have worked a week or 2 weeks ago, might not work anymore.

Hi all. I am currently in Bangkok and I have a school offering me a place to work as a teacher. To process my documents with the MOE they have to send a letter, however I have a problem.

I have been in Thailand since April and i visited here before Christmas last year. I have used my two land border crossings and when I tried to get a tourist visa from Savanakhet I was denied and given a transit visa. Also when I flew in from Da Nang in May to Suvarnabhumi airport I was questioned by the IO, eventually they let me through but they asked me many questions.

According to my school, I cannot apply to the MOE on a transit visa, so they have advised me to go to another country for around 5 days and then fly back to Thailand for a 30day waiver stamp. However I am concerned that they may deny me entrance as I have been here a while already.

Does anyone have any advice? If I fly to phuket or chiang mai are the IO's less strict?

Thanks 😊
