Can I get a 60-day visa exemption upon arrival in Thailand, extend it, and then do a border run to Laos or fly to Bali to get more visa days?

Nigel **************

@Chris *********

You could be stopped trying to do 2, but very surely will be stopped trying it 3 times in a row. All depends on your travel history and the IO you meet on arrival.
