Helps if you're healthy. Drink loads of water, electrolyte once a day if need be. I have 3 when exercising. Fans daytime, AC intermittently at night

Sounds about right, keep the rooms dark with good air ventilation

Hotel is fine, ask if they will do TM30, only need 1 or 2 days there

Thanks, guys at immigration also said i would have to go chaeng wattana for tm 30, is this correct? Or does hotel provide all?

After waiting a few hours and filling in all forms the application for visa extension was denied. They wanted proof of adress and a tm 30. Last time i applied a couple months ago this was not required. I cant get proof of address in the apartment i live for a few reason. Are there other ways of doing this? Hotel receipt etc?

Are the financial requirements 20000 baht in a Thai bank or otherwise?

Currently in Thailand. Will probably go Savanakhet. 

Unsure yet. Does it vary?

What are the tourist visa financial requirements? 

Can I get a tourist visa after my 2 annual exempt visas are used up?

I avoid news, it tends to muddy my waters

Thanks, can we still get visa extension?

At present my only hope seems to try a border bounce at Nongkai. Am i being realistic? Are there any reports of people bwing succesful with this?

U

Or is there a better border? Savannakhet?

Thanks

Every neighbouring country to Thailand has an official rule that you need six months remaining validity on your passport to enter. The rule for Thailand is only that your passport must be valid for the duration of your intended stay. Thus, if returning to Thailand for a visa exempt entry, you should be fine as long as you have at least 45 days remaining validity on your passport. However, according to the official rules, you would expect a border bounce to be impossible unless you have at least six months remaining passport validity. In spite of this, I have seen multiple reports of successful border bounces at the Friendship Bridge at Nong Khai. It is unclear whether Lao immigration waiving the six month rule was deliberate or accidental.

So nongkai is our best bet for now? Has any one on here been let through recently with nearly expired passport?

Does anyone know for sure? Cant get clear answer from web

Can i return to uk with soon to expire uk passport?

I want to get a exempt visa, about 3 months left on passport, land borders no flying

My childs passport expires soon, are they strict on land border visa runs with pasdport validity?

Be interesting to hear reports on recent land entries

Seems like the news articles on this so far have specified that the restrictions are for travelers arriving by air.  I haven't seen anyone addressing land borders yet.

Is it safe to assume land borders will impliment same policy on 9th?

Yep

Can anyone else confirm this?

I have a visa run coming up on 13th. And will not get the jab.
