Edited:If you make it thru on a Visa Exempt then get your 30 day extension here-> then use a Visa agent out of Bangkok such as Thai Visa Service to do a border bounce to Cambodia to repeat the process. This agent will secure you another Visa Exempt up to a maximum of 2/calendar year, as it will be 2023 by then you are good to go on this option.

@Daniela *******

One day is enough. If you have many stamps and long stay here as a tourist I would recommend using a Visa Company from Pattaya. Avoid Poipet border crossing.

Ban Laem Chanthaburi/Cambodia is good to go. From Bangkok. Yes you'll get a Cambo sticker that chews up one page of passport.

@Robert *****

Both sides, at times, are useless. That's why we have forums like this. 'We' figure it out not those dumbasses.

@Tez *****

yes agreed unlikely to see it again.

If you just want to stay here and not study you could almost stretch tourist Visas to one year. I believe the Multi Entry TR Visa if done correctly can net you 6 months then 2x border bounce with an agent to Cambodia gets you another 75x2 = 150 days. This'll run you around 15,000bht for 11-12 months, but more complicated.

You didn't say for how long pal edit the post

Visa Exemption is the best option now, get you 45+30=75, only 15 days shy of TR60+30.

Rubbish - They want you to use them to get a bank account. OR so you can transfer the Fee for the Service to their bank account. Consider using another Agency and going to Cambodia and get the Visa Exemption 45 +30 (only 15 days less than the TR90, plus only takes one full day to do the Exemption border bounce).

yes ok I see your logic.
