The SETV keeps the cycle going thats it. 11 months is the maximum you can stay here for on tourist visas doing border runs and extensions. I hope thats understood.

You can fly out and back as many times as you like we know that.

Tourist come in on a SETV or a 30 day stamp and extend that by 30 days.

What a lot of tourist never knew was when you do a border run and get a 30 day stamp you can extend that for 30 days. And you can do that twice in one colander year.

Work it right you can start with a SETV and stay here for 11 months.

They dont want people living here on tourist visas.

But there is a way round it as Marco worked out.

Call it a loop hole in the law if you like.

You do it your way then and let us all know when you get the 7 day red stamp

There it is all worked out by Marco.

Everyone understands it except you.
