Thanks all. The reason i ask is that now it is 60 days not 30 i guess they are trying to stop over abuse. This is the site i got the info from

*****************************************************************************************************
%20Visa%20Exemption%20Scheme&text=Hold%20citizenship%20from%20an%20approved,hotel%20or%20an%20apartment%20address

Definately says no neighbouring countries

Has anyone yet actually tested it on a 60 day exempt to a local country ?

Thanks

i believe you need to show an exit ticket before 60 days is up regardless of you extending. Thats what it says but sometimes they check, sometimes not.

I think its wrong. However without a visa youll need to have evidence that youre leaving with 60 days so a flight after 89 days wont be accepted. You may need to book.a cheap flight out after 60 days or less even if you throw the tickets away

im not sure id trust it. It was always 2 by land and all the visa pages i know are saying 2. As always, the only time you truly know is when you attempt it

twice a year by land borders. Unlimited by air but at the discretion of the immigration officer

exactly. You can only enter twice a year but a METV only last six months anyway so no great advantage. The only benefit is it guarantees 60 days wheras no visa could revert back to 30 days with little notice
