More likely to see the 2pm to 5pm ban on alcohol sales lifted than a 90 day visa free entry

I was stopped on arrival at Suvarnabumi with a SETV and told I could not stay 5 months on a tourist visa and extensions and told the same again boarding a plane to Laos and again on arrival in Laos. The IO at Suvarnabumhi told me I should get a Non O visa if I want to stay 5 months every year. My plan 60 + 30 +30 +30 was okay last year but not this year.

@Iain *******************

I usually stay here 5 months but this year they told me I can no longer do that with Tourist visa and extensions. They duggested a Non O visa based on over 50 is the best.

@John *******

which u can then extend for 30 more = 60

@Gordon ********

yeah way too much wrong advice from the recently arrived. But not on the Thai Visa Advice page on FB.

Even though I had already been 'spoken to' by IO staff at Suvarnabumhi and Luang Prabang airport about my travel plans I found the Nong Khai border crossing to be trouble free. So easy. Thanks to

@Tod ********

for the guidance

@John *******

no need to change the original branch address but home address should be correct for a visa
