I've had this, a very long time ago though. It was solved back then by the Emirates check-in desk changing my flight to a later date. But, I think now this won't happen. I'd suggest they do the tourist visa, 60 days.

@Benjamin *****

thanks.

Any visa/waiver. Does the timescale run from 1st Jan-31st Dec? This is about applying then entering the country. Apparently, from a post on here, you're not allowed to apply for a tourist visa at any consulate in Asia if you've already spent 90 days in the Kingdom.

So for example, you enter the kingdom in June 2019 on a SETV, then extend that at immigration for 30 days. Is that the start your 12 month period? Or, does it reset from the 1st January 2020?

Make sure that if you go through Pedang Besur or Sadow, you have 20k in Thai bhat on you and you have your flight out booked and paid for, along with your accommodation for the full period on your TM7. Otherwise you will be returned. Personal experience back in June.

, I have spoken with the Malaysian immigration on a few occasions in this past week, their feeling is the same as most foreigners entering/trying to enter Thailand.

Sent back 5 times from the Pedang Besur main crossing. 1st one my fault really for not having the required cash on me. The rest just IO's being little hitlers. The last one at the train station and a total IO's incompitence.

Amazing how they don't know their own rules.
