Nonsense about misuse. He can say i can only stay for 30 days and then pay a lot of money, 1900 baht to extend. Its pretty normal in many countries to extend a visa. Nothing to do with misuse.

My passport is full with entry stamps from all over asia, if that is not makes it clear what I am. And none of them 1 day stays for visa runs.

@Lasse ************
Yes I will have to that, but i want to wait till I am in a visa free country or EU country. Otherwise they have to move the entrance stamp to the new passport.

@Michael ******
Me too. Its sometime hard when the officer is telling lies, like that 2nd officer that said i went to other countries for a day or says i come here for the girls. I really have to control myself then and swallow it all.

@Prince******
No, most eu and western countries get really 30 day excempt. Other countries visa on arrival. You can see signs 'visa on arrival' at airports, i never had to use that lane.

This 90 days within 180 days was the rule about 10 years ago in thailand. Now its still aplies in Turkey and many Balkan non eu countries.

In Thailand back then the officers always had to count days haha. I would be happy if this was a clear rule now and always accepted by the io officers.

@Colin *******
Ok lesson learned. Probably if the new rule is 60 days, they would stamp me for 60 days even if i asked 30.

I think in that case I try to be extra polite. An immigration officer has the power to deny you entry for no reason and there is not much you can do about.

In a shop I would act differently and simply go to a different shop.

I am waiting your post when you bought a expensive ticket to Thailand and denied entry
