What are the implications of receiving multiple tourist visas from Thai embassies, particularly in Vientiane, Laos?

David **********

I wonder about this too. I guess you have to read other people's posts to see if anyone is getting a 6th visa now if they are spread out over time.

Is it safe for US passport holders to enter Thailand repeatedly on tourist visas via Mae Sai?

David **********

This is always good to know, they always red stamp the embassy seal and I always get worried for a second lol.

My last tourist visa turned out to be a stamp because "they ran out of stickers."

I guess it's definitely less than before (I haven't seen close to 10 anymore) but 5+ seems doable too IF you're lucky. There's a bunch of strategies but they're all sort of a crap shoot.

There still is no set rule because I had more than that last week and I can't find any red stamp. It must be fairly random as I was far from the one with the most too.

What are the recent changes regarding the priority service age limit at Chiangmai and how can one qualify for benefactor status?

David **********

You get the vip visa or I believe a member posted a limousine service which comes with the priority line, so it's not so difficult if you really want it.

What visa do I need to retire and teach English in Thailand?

You can also find other jobs which can use different qualifications (for example an electricians school and experience) so depending on what you did back home you may be able to find a different job that doesn't require a degree.

What is the process for obtaining a 'Combat Visa' in Chiang Mai, and which schools are recommended?

David **********

I don't think they let you fight for a visa. But if you stay without a visa and go to prison, you can fight to leave there.

What is the process for obtaining a 60-day tourist visa in Vientiane and tips for traveling to Udon Thani airport?

David **********

That 50B may have helped but your reasoning would be way off mark. They don't think you're rich, but you're also giving them an extra 50B of income (bribe) so it definitely would help. When I'm worried I'll usually go with or meet the visa run company so they take care of that under the table stuff.
