Be aware that you only get 1 year of stay IF you arrive before the valid until date 30 May 2023 and if you travel after that date you need a Re-Entry Permit to keep your stay alive and get the same Admitted Until date on re-entry.

I guess she is the owner or rentor of the place where you stay and she has to make the address registration. Just bring the form to register is not enough.

If you tell us what the country of origin of your passport is and what kind of visa you want to apply for during your visa run, we might share some thoughts about it.

@Jack ******
What ever you do is your decision, I just pointed it out as that visa is very expensive and could be a total waste of money if the sh... hits the fan.

And even the Thai Elite Visa, which is based on tourism does not allow you to work inside Thailand.

You need a Visa that allows you to work and a Work Permit to work inside Thailand.

Bite the bullit and become legit or keep on playing games with Immigration and keep asking if you are allowed back into the country to take care your left behind belongings.

Only if the person is legit to get the Visa Exempt Entry.

@Stephen *******
Because some people think every person in the world is legit for the Visa Exempt Entry and they do not care about giving correct information.

Yes, the law from 1979 is still in place but differenty enforced for people residing long term at one address. Check with your local Immigation Office on how lenient they are with enforcement.

Okay, to be sure:

Copy all this answers, save the link on your phone, make sure your powerbank is fully charged and SHOW IMMIGRATION THE ANSWERS, before they deny you entry.

To be fair:

Immigration is allowed to ask you:

Proof of finance, 20.000 Thb or equivalent currency in CASH

Proof of onward travel within the period you get stamped in

Proof of accommodation.

IF you can NOT show, you entry into Thailand might be denied and you could be send back to the country of origin of your passport ON YOUR OWN account.
