Thanks for sharing your experience! It's true that frequent trips on tourist visas or exemptions can raise red flags, especially if done repeatedly. Your advice about transitioning to a long-term visa after a couple of trips makes sense to avoid complications. It’s always better to plan ahead and ensure your visa matches your intended length of stay to avoid any issues with immigration. Unfortunately, in this case, there’s already a comment in the system, and perhaps next time it would be better to have a visa in hand that isn't a visa on arrival

@Michael *******

Thanks for sharing your experience! Could you share what type of long-term visa you applied for, and if you think taking a break from entry could help cool off the situation before returning? Also, do you recommend applying for the ED visa (for example from Cambodia) or perhaps using the e-Visa system in this scenario?

@Rene *****

Thanks for sharing this! It seems like comments in the system can indeed impact the extension process, like the case you mentioned with the return ticket. It's good to know that the person was still able to extend at Samui

Thank you for the response. It was a 30-day stamp, I assure you. There was no prior warning.
