right OK. Some people get a warning stamp after two. You obviously didn't. But speculating the reason for your denial, it might be because you're asking for a third. I'm only asking for my second so fingers crossed it will work. If not I'll be back asking for the visa exempt at nong Khai as you did
oh right. Thanks for the advice. I thought because it's only my second one this year they wouldn't deny it. If I was asking for a third I'd certainly think there's a greater risk. But as you said, no one can know. Also, don't they usually put a stamp warning in your passport before they then deny you next time?
that's very true I have to do the TM30 twice. Once there and then once back. Or maybe I should just risk it and see if they'll let me extend using the old TM30 which was not updated after the border bounce.
really? That's an interesting possibility. I know that hotels are supposed to do it, but what if I go to extend the visa and they have no evidence that the hotel has provided this?
