In conclusion, I’ll just get stamped in Tachilek and out on the same day, and it’s possible? Is it sufficient to book the return bus at least an hour after (from its scheduled arrival time) to depart?

Yes, am singaporean, and the same officer from yesterday told me it’s not 30 days for my re-entry from Mae Sai. (I couldn’t recall if it’s 14 or 15days.)

Thank you for clarifying! And, it’s a 14days entry granted counting from the day the passport is stamped back to Chiang Mai?

That’s where I’m confused. For departure, the table looks to me like, it’s only for Monday with those multiple timings, while Saturday has got only 9.30pm for A Class.

The officer at the Immigration Office of Chiang Mai... Was there yesterday with a friend to extend her Visa and took the chance to ask.

For Green Bus V class, based on my understanding on its website, should I want to do the visa bounce on a Saturday or Sunday (as my current extended-visa ends on November 4th, and I need to max it out till my departure on the 17th), it's not possible?

Thank you! I'm looking at the Greenbus. Did I understand correctly that there's only Monday bus schedule which has multiple departure times from Chiang Mai, while Saturday would only have 1 class A bus that leaves at 4.15pm?

Hi Tod, does this practice of stamping in and out still work? I was advised by Chiang Mai immigration office that it’s recommended to stay a night in Mae Sai as officers there are cracking down visa-bouncers.
