this TM 30 is all over the place. At CW I was told my TM30 was good for the year regardless of how many times I travel abroad in that year.

@Tod ********

I agree. We are very fortunate.

Tod s an extremely helpful chap and the information he passes on is always accurate. He s helped me in the past and we are very lucky to have him on here.

@Chuck ********

thanks for mentioning that. Before I went to Hanoi I went to CW to get a reentry and to find out how to get registered to do TM 30 online. The officer did another TM 30 which I found strange as the existing one was still in force. When I got back I could not get online for the TM 30. All I could get was TM 47. So I went back to CW and queued for 2 hours. That was when the officer told me that the new,TM 30 done the week before was good for the year. This TM 30 is a pain and I question why it s there in the first place.

@Tod ********

good to know. I wish things were more uniform

@Chuck ********

i was told at CW that the TM 30 was good for a year and I could fly in and out of Thailand as much as I like in that year.

There are some things here that annoy and frustrate me but I m sure these issues would be eclipsed by a lot of what goes on in my own country. I think the author presented what we all really know and mostly agree with very well.

Tod Daniels is the one guy to go to if you want sound and straight to the point advice.

Tod s the guy to go to for advice. I can vouch for that.

If you are flying in without a visa they are looking at onward travel as are the airline. Does doing a land border run get round this problem
