I have conflicting reports from expats here in Chiang Mai about new rules. I am a G7 Canadian. I entered Thailand via flight from Saigon with a 2 month single entry visa I purchased in Saigon. I extended it for a further 30 days. I have to leave by Feb 02. I want to head down to the Islands and cross over to Malaysia for a bit and then come back to Thailand to finish up my dental work. Can I do this? Will I get a 30 day stamp on arrival at the land border with Malaysia on re entry? Can I extend this for another 30 days after my 30 days is up?
I have no other Thai stamps, visas or extensions in my passport.

Cheers for any answers.
