Malaysian BORDER RUN in 2025 question?

Specifically if anyone with less than the 150 days total in Thailand has success or failures crossing this border after Nov 17, 2025? ...& which border crossings?

I'm wondering what is the success chance to do a Malaysian border run from Southern Thailand in Dec 2025? I've read I need to stay minimum 2 days out of Thailand before returning.

In my current CANADIAN passport, I HAVE:

28 DAYS stay: ENTERED Thailand 2025 January, from Sri Lanka.

- in-between: Indo, Malaysia > CANADA stay for 9 weeks + other countries.

60+30 Extension: ENTERED Thailand Sept 22, 2025 until now. Entered flying in from Canada.

So total days in Thailand in 2025 less than 120 days.

ONLY other THAI stamps are:

- 2 Thai retirement visas. Expired.

- a 30+30 Extension in 2023 Jan.

- a 60+30 Extension from Sept until Dec 2023

My past passports did have many 60+30 days stamps though.

If I don't get any positive feedback, I will probably use a visa agent for the Border run instead.

ORIGINAL POSTER
Hi, can someone give me some advice please? I arrived in Thailand on 7th June, believing I had a 90 day visa - my travel agent had assured me that I had. It turned out I only had a 30 day visa, but by the time I realised (my fault, I should have checked) I was 27 days beyond my expiry date. I then flew to Kuala Lumpar and back. Since then I have had 2x 30 day visa extensions from Krabi Immigration either side of another return trip to Kuala Lumpar. My visa expires on 28th November. I would like to stay til end of January 2020, but I am aware I have already left the country twice for visa extensions. Is it feasible for me to get another visa (60 days), and if so how should I go about it, or should I head back to the UK and try and come out again at the end of January on a 60 day visa? Thanks
