Nobody said that airport provided extension. Extension can be at the 6 months mark at immigration office, but many will get denied if no proof of funds or no clear plan for the next 6 months. As for coming in, again, not true at all. Officers knlw that certain consulate work with agents, therefore can quiz people coming from Vietnam especially.

@Steve ******

When they extend after 6 months, yes. And at BKK airport many are getting questioned, especially if their DTV come from Vietnam, since agents have contact there.

What many are not understanding from OP post is that many got their DTV with agents. Therefore not everyone on DTV have the $ to show at border if needed, nor proof that their Muay Thai class is for another 6 months. So using an agent by-pass any requirement that they may ask at the border. The border run company will only allow you in if they discussed with border officials already and said that you are good to go.

No, it doesn't matter. Most offices don't do 60 days, period. Some since the new 60 days visa exempt, and some since 2025. They only do 60+30, no 60+60 nor 60+30+60.

Many immigration don't do 60 days extension anymore. Phuket, Khon Kaen, Udon Thani. I think BKK still do it. But most you can convert to Non O.

What do you mean buying passport for 16k? Becoming Laos citizens?

I dont think they realize who they are arguing with, lol! Tod is an encyclopedia when it comes to visa stuff. He knows everything and never wrong. He's the guy experienced members PM when they are unsure of something.

No, because the stamp is legit. Agent pay officer to by pass proof of fund status. But no crackdown will know that.
