Jargalsaikhan Erdene got to officer, presented my passport and he entered a new visa stamp with a new expiration date 180 days away. No questions asked.
you are totally wright. I believe most visas throughout the rest of the world works differently. For example, if you have a 6 month multi entry visa, you can leave and come back as you wish during this 6 month period, but the end date of your visa does not change. With this visa, the end date changes with your entries. If you have already dealt with this type of visa, you realise that the DTV has unusual rules compared to other countries.
well, yes we can stay a whole year in Thailand with this visa ( minus a few days out travelling). This was the point of this post...I was sharing my experience in line with this goal. But if you mean not staying 365 consecutive day in Thailand, you're totally spot on. But that was not the topic of this post.
