Rick Reints How did they know you moved?

Alan Rothwell This is likely the exact pattern that raises red flags. I personally would never combine multiple visa exempt entries with an extension. Do a couple of 60 day visa exempt entries. Add some travel to other amazing countries in the region and call it a day. If you want to stay longer then get a proper Visa.

Robert Merrell No big deal. Just get a 60 tourist Visa if necessary.

David Gapper There is no magic number of days. Your plan is typical tourist pattern and should be fine except for adding an extension. I personally would not add an extension. If you want to spend another 30 days then visit some of the other amazing countries in the region.

No visa required. Two 60 day visa exempt entries are no problem at all. I would suggest spending 2-4 weeks visiting some of the many other amazing countries in the region as well. So 60 days Thailand, 15-30 days outside, 60 days Thailand.

This is exactly what Thailand Immigration does not want anymore. Basically go home for 8 months and then visit for 4ish months as a tourist.

Bradley Gibson As for Exchange rates. Thai banks give very good rates for currency exchange. It is around .5% off mid-market, not 3-5%.

I get free wire transfers with my bank package. So total fees were 500 baht. This was for 3.5 million baht. Easy to send the wire transfer with online banking. No fuss.

They often call to offer an even better rate when a transfer arrives.

Also, the FinCEN $10,000 requirement is for Cash transactions.

Personally, thinking full of shxxt kind of "agent". Haha

Likely will be refused boarding for the first flight. This is not a connecting flight in Bangkok which would be fine. This is two separate flights so the airline will most likely not allow boarding without a Thailand Visa.

@Jordan ****

Yeah agree with most of what you are saying.

This year there is something in the water.
