TIT
So advise a person to do something knowing it will likely end in failure? Thats horrible.
Some of us have been doing this many years and can possibly save someone the hassle of denied entry.

Not a good idea, chiang mai immigration does not like frequent visitors to use visa exempt entries.

The infography specifically states, 1 time extension of stay at Immigration, which I interpret as during the 5-year validity of the visa, not each 180-day period of stay.
We really need to wait for further details, rather than speculate.
At this time, the government has announced that the visa will only be available from June 2025.
A year to come up with the requirements.

Stay 180 days, extend once (assuming 1,900bht), border hop, rinse and repeat.
Averaging 3,900bht/year.
Around the same cost as a retirement extension with multi re-entry, but 300kbht less in the bank required.
Well its 10k, plus extension is supposed to be 10k. Thats 20k for a year. And also I'm assuming they will not let people live in the country indefinitely on this visa as its essentially a tourist visa. Probably a one and done scenario then you have to wait a year to comeback.

We dont know for sure, nothing has been published in the royal gazette. Last time they talked about this they ended up only giving 60 days to Russia. So we have to wait and see, they might say for example only China, Cambodia, Laos get 60.

Boomers getting scared that 'their' Thailand is used by young guys as playground.
'Son, you have to work 40 years in a factory before you are allowed to enjoy your life.'
The time has changed. Even 'digital nomad' word is outdated. It's now just called work because today's work does not have to be in a factory and can be done everywhere. Get updated.
I have been in thailand for 10 years since mid 20's. This would be the worst thing that could happen for us younger folks. Making visas impossible and aggravating like russia or china would be the best. If you cant understand this well im not gonna explain it, good luck to you.

We have to wait on the fine print requirements for the 180 day visa. If its like the LTR Visa or Smart Visa then its more of an exclusive program.

No way could I ever live there. Udon Thani was bad enough, and at worst, was just 100-150 AQI range. Here/PKK, and only a couple months, if that, hit's or breaks 100 AQI.
100 AQI your still gonna be at a terrible pm2.5 value like 40µg/m³.
You really need keep your pm2.5 level under 10µg/m³ yearly average for minimal health risk.
Udon thani yearly average is 23.4 µg/m³, still very high but better than Chiang mai at 32.3 μg/m3.
Cardiovascular health is the major problem, especially for males, heart disease and erectile dysfunction much higher with pm2.5 pollution.

Are you sure? Don't they charge their fee in MYR?
I'm asking because, at each of the Thai embassies and consulates I'm familiar with, they only accept ONE currency. So if they say 160 MYR, you can't expect to be able to rock up with the equivalent in THB.
sorry thats a mistake lol, I am so used to the 1900 baht fee. Ya it was 160 MYR only!

The high in chiang mai during april still averaged about 35c in the 1990's. Now our april 2024 average high is around 40c, big change.

Put your face directly in front of a running microwave oven and thats what your doing when driving an electric vehicle. No sane individual would do that.

Visa Application form, Passport copy, Hotel booking for entire stay, entry and exit flight tickets, last 3 months bank statement, copy of malaysia entry stamp, and 1900 baht.
Also note: You cannot enter the building without long pants and mask over your nose. They only accept a limited number of people per day so people start lining up early before they open.
Its too much hassle imo. But if you have only been in thailand once this year you can probably get it if you follow procedure.

You are fornicating trying to live in the country using a sham visa, I will be honest with you the authorities really hate this. Marry her and get the proper visa or move on, those really should be your only 2 options.

will do it ✌ NEXT TIME
with a new passport to of course..
didn't know a border pass for thais still work. home she is near laos.. but now she wait in Pattaya.. 😕
Definitely go with land entry from Laos, thats pretty much guaranteed. The people saying chiang mai are not up to date with the current situation. Sure they were better 5-10 years ago but that has passed I know from first hand experience 2022 and 2023. Any airport is questionable nowadays, everyone is on the same page.

So, Had i until now. As has been said many times on here its IO discretion whether to let you in or not. I know they might have not done it lawfully but that wasn't the point, the point is it could happen to you. So, I don't know what your point is? Apart from some kind of gloating.
Ignore JoseThailand. He fled Russia, and Russians are specifically allowed unlimited land border runs so his information is not relevant to this thread. I have no idea why he always comes in these threads spouting off nonsense. Please Jose understand you dont have a western passport.

In December 2022 we had reliable reports Chiang Khong was telling people with significant history in thailand they could not exit and come back through this border and they need to fly out of thailand. Also people trying to do the border run on the last day of their visa expiration were told they need to spend 1 night in Laos. Has anyone seen this stuff still happening?

If you are currently in hong kong you can apply for evisa, its no problem for non resident foreigners.
For an evisa you either apply in your home country or you need to apply to the embassy where you are currently located. China and Korea are the only two places that accept evisa in Asia. The consulate needs your flight so they can see where you originate from.

the sad reality is, 85 year old men are some of the most desired men in any country in the world as they will be dead soon.
