    Hope you knocked wood when you typed those. 

     

    6 years ago when I arrived, anyone with a pulse could stay safely for decades on visa runs and ED visas.  Since then, they have had crackdowns on visa runners, on ED visa's, on multiple visa exempt entries and just this week we have seen at least 2 reports from guys who got turned around at the airport in spite of having current visas.  Unless there's been other revelations about those guys, that's quite disturbing.  And what's next?

     

    And what of the guys who haven't reached 50, haven't married a local and don't have the spare dosh laying around for a 500K baht Elite visa?  Not so easy for them...  Seems they may now be at risk every time they have to cross the border.

     

    Sure, you can stay elsewhere.  Lots of us can.  But how do you deal with a home full of possessions, a car, a scooter, a relationship, a lease (or an owned home), and a thousand other bits of minutia if they suddenly won't let you in this time even to divest it all?  

     

    I guest the main point I'm making is that what looks real easy to a guy in one situation may not even be possible to a guy in another.  And what looked real easy 6 years ago isn't possible today.  And what's easy today may not be possible with the next change in the wind.

    Not sure why you are worried about 180 days of stay. There is no rule that limits your total stay to 180 days.

    You are limited to 2 visa exempt entries per calendar year at land border crossings is perhaps the rule you need to worry about.

    You are right, but the problem is when a country change the own rules ... without nothing official. ( 180 days in 1 year )

     

    But this don't happen just in Thailand, and this is named ABUSE .

    Hi,

     

    This is the first time that i'm stay in Thailand

     

    I come in January 2017 and get stamp exemption ( Suvarnabhumi ) + extension ( 30+30 ) i get out/in  from Thailand and get another stamp extension ( Suvarnabhumi just 30 days NO extension ) and then in April i go to Penang and get the 60 days Tourist visa ( Don Muang ) and in Thailand other 30 days extension 

     

    Total 178 days ( not 180 )

     

    If i go out and in from the border land # no airport #  i have some problems ? (get other 30 days and other extension ) ?????

     

     

    I ask this first because i don't want stay in the detention cell ...

     

    Thank you

    Hello,

    What is the best country in South Asia ( like Vietnam,  Cambodia, Philippines , etc.  ) for get a easy VISA LONG TOURIST ? ( 1 year minimum )

    And where is easy to open a bank account and transfert large sum like in EUR or USD ( $25.000 up )?

    I see in other forum that in Vietnam is a problem trasfert large sum in USD dollars ...

    And i see that in Thailand is a problem now stay more 180 days on TOURIST VISA ( risk deportation now at Don muang and Suvarnabhumi )


    Thanks !
