Yes that “ once “ confused me …but after watching the video with the actual Thai government official it cleared it up for me ..

English is not your first language,im well aware of the differences in terminology of stamps ,,,you yourself have used the wrong English Wording with regards what the stamp is called when entering at the border ,,im well aware of visas obtained outside Thailand and visas inside Thailand so your responding to the wrong person or just behaving like you know everything because you have been ex amount of years in Thailand ,,,you weren’t in Thailand in 84 and the same rules applied them as they do now ,

I’ve had more visas stamps of all kinds than you have had som tam at 5 baht

Enjoy your day

@Colin ********

it’s a formal acceptance of entry into Thailand what ever way you want to word it ..they are all just stamps for n the passport

@Samuel *******

60 day exempt is a formal visa

@Maxim **********

all these soft borders or embassies soon got tightened up including savanakhet which of course Is mukdahan crossing for many ..never assume what holds now is ok even tomorrow in Thailand and advertising 0% will draw attention ,,,eventually

@Peter ******

it’s NOT OFFICIAL YET

@Nathan *****

learning something new and filling in an embassy visa are two different things

@Robert *******

well said ,ignorant comment and moderators should know better

@Rain *******

an ED VISA is only 3 months old,,then it’s up to the discretion of the immigration officer ,,,normally never a problem ,but it does happen that no extensions are giving

@Gray *****

it’s ALWAYS up to the discretion of the officer IF YOU GET IN OR NOT NO Matter how many days is possible
