Anonymous participant 546 OK - I have an agent I chat to on messenger - will ask their opinion too. I am often a bit wary of advice from people who are selling services in the same domain 🙂 🙂

DTV_Begpacker I remember those days well. I left Singapore in January 2016 and spent over a year on VE and SETV as well as time in Cambodia quite a bit (I was supposed to be heading to UK after 9 months). I have no issues back then on entries and a few extensions. Then ended up on a B and a job here out of the blue.

DTV_Begpacker It was pre Ukraine-Russia and Israel-Gaza though. That is where many of the visa exempt border runners are from in numbers.

It is a policy/guideline issued under existing laws. They can and have issued new guidelines on visa runs which are to be implemented on the 18th. It is permanent until they change it again :-)

That is exactly what they have just announced is it not? They still need flexibility for edge cases and the like.

I first saw the changes as someone was asking for funding by cash or crypto so a woman on the islands could do her 4th run this year before the rule changes in Monday. Asking for 250 USD to do a run.
