I'm a visa run agent on an isolated island with no immigration office. I give a lot of help for free "on the ground" to my customers and sometimes help in this group if I see a question I can help with. It's a great group must say and you guys based in Bkk that are admin and probably go to immigration many times weekly do a great job, keep up the good work!

Yes Kota Barhu , it's a lovely, beautiful picturesque town just across the border

and KB too I believe, for KB though ideally you need to be owner/director of your thai company

the clients that i would send there, some have their own thai companies & some are employees. many are looking for a change for their trip from KB & Penang especially with the ease of flying Surat-KL-Surat but I'm still fairly sure that they only issue the single as far as I know

Do they ever issue the 1 year NON B multiple ? Or just single these days
