Have you ever overstayed?

Are you just looking to get a tourist visa?

Wise has a very good exchange rate and low fees on exchange.

I pay into Thai bank accounts regularly using wise. ฿44.70 fee.

Wise can do it at minimal cost. Or you can do bank to bank using swift, but it costs more.

Yes so have I. Returned end of May after two months. Will go back for another two months in September.

The issue is the back to back exemptions. I see more cases on these pages of travellers being refused. I’ve even seen it (rarely) where a traveller without a history of border runs was refused. The point is that there’s no guarantee.

Visa exempt is not guaranteed. You may be denied entry on your return.
