he is not married to a Thai wife, and he obviously is not 50 years old, yet. Going to Vietnam or Laos won't help him visa-wise. He can spend a nice holiday there, but that's what's to it

correct. . .some people on extensions out of former Non-OA visa were "grandfathered" for a period, after 2019 . . . .but AFAIK Immigration, at least in Phuket, as stated on the website of the Phuket Volunteers, the grandfathering was discontinued in 2024

@Jim ******

that's why I said, send an e-mail inquiry. My god, can't you read properly? I know firsthand that Thai embassies will respond to e-mails

@Andrew *******

Guten Abend, do you already phoot phasa Thai dai mai?

@Andrew *******

coolio

@Andrew *******

I don't care what your lawyer said . . . I am talking about the new approach of Immigration towards border runners - AND repeated visa-exempt entries. And if they ever start to count, they will not only count calendar year, they will also look at your stays during the last 365-days period . . it is not either or, it is both . . NOTHING "resets", this is lawyer BS

@Andrew *******

Good Luck. Three years of ED-visa? Be prepared to speak fluent Thai with those guys at the Immigration counters. If you fail, they will revoke your visa😎🤓

@Andrew *******

it doesn't "reset". . . .while the new approach is still young, they also count per "rolling year" . . .the calendar year summation will start much later into the new calendar year. You could not have read this nowhere on an official site, as it hasn't been definmitely published at all how they count. Actually, the count is "up to the officer" and you have agreed on this already
