Lived in Bohol. (Tagbi area) and Phuket (Rawai). In one place I was hit by other bikes and could never leave my helmet when parked. I made the country where I did not get hit or worry about helmet my main base. And visit the other.

No, because after testing it failed to satisfy bank so went with chase.

you may end up being more confused. Also the laws change.

I get what you’re trying to do/say. And the reason why. But talk to a lawyer about this.

@Yns ****

my understanding is everytime you enter Thailand from another country you get a stamp. It is from that stamp you have 364 days to report (you lose a day so it's not 365). But at the 5 year mark no matter what you have to do apply again for the second 5. So essentially with the LTR if you leave the country less than a year each time you know report at 5 years. TM30 still applies.

You didn't leave the country in the 12 months since you got your stamp?

cool. Before Covid the pages were filling up fast. In Vietnam I asked if they could use an existing page with room. Had it prepared…so they stamped me on a new page to put me back in line lol.

I would like to know how to get officers to stamp on a page that already has stamps while not alienating them or risking rejection. Let us know if you figure out the right words and action to do this.
