Is it possible to re-enter Thailand under the visa exemption rule after a trip to Malaysia?

Winston ********

To the best of my knowledge, Thailand allows only two land border crossing/per year, the rest has to be by air. Some have made more land crossings from various borders but some rejected or spent a long time with questioning. So better to be safe than sorry

Is it worth getting an agent to manage my Thai visa requirements if I have 800,000 Baht but don't want to tie it up in a bank?

Winston ********

I did mine from NON-O till Retirement for 5 years through an agent. Never had any hassles and proved prudent when Covid struck a month after my first Retiremen visa was made.

Is it easy to exchange £50 notes in Thailand?

Winston ********

only the new notes. I have the older ones and they are rejected in Thailand and Philippines. I reached out to a friend in the UK and he said they are now obsolete. A pity I hung on to a few of them too long
