If you're paying an agent, shouldn't they get it right? What are you paying for? Mistakes? 😆

Is it safe to perform a same-day visa exemption run from Thailand to Laos and back?

Roberto *********

The worst that can happen is you can actually be denied entry and put into IDC whilst awaiting a flight back to your home country!

However as you appear to have very little on your immigration record, I'd say 99.9% you'll have no problem re-entering.

Same day bounces are always examined a little closer. As

Thurkettle says it's more to do with recent history and types of visas you've had previously. Never ever kid yourself that flying in means you won't be denied. There's plenty of people been put back on the flight they've just arrived on!

Elite Visa is not a tourism visa. It's for longstayers, not holidaymakers.

Doing back to back METVs might raise a red flag, as it's potentially 18 months in a two-year period. You own a property in Thailand. Put yourself in the shoes of an immigration officer or an Embassy official and ask yourself "is this person a tourist?".
