I find that amazing. In the sense that the route you describe Saigon to Bangkok with those airlines would be 100% requiring onward flight.

You are typing about visa exempt via air. Current posts are about visa exempt via land. Border bounce. In any event all off topic as don't think OP has stated Russian nationality

Think you are missing my point. The company referred to is a visa agent. Have not seen any official link from immigration that states Russian nationals can do unlimited visa exempt border bounces. Perhaps a blind eye but I cannot find anything actually stated by immigration rules.

Your pp is actually the property of UK gov. It's basically illegal for you to do anything to your pp. BTW: most countries cut of scan strip . Also generally place stamp in pp confirming that any visas, reentry permits etc are still valid

Can you provide "no limit" via land visa exempt entry for Russian pp holders link..

That's funny.

Did the OP state that he has Russian pp. The quote you posted from visa company may refer to current situation for Russians. Certainly not the norm .

Depends on your passport.

I recall that thread and that chap was trolling along the lines of "stand your ground" and insist upon entry to Thailand visa exempt. Eventually stated Russian pp holder. There are couple of countries with unlimited border entries. Malaysia being one. My understanding is Russia is not.

You started a thread April 6 re exit Thailand may. And we're given good advice. Ignored that and now thread with overstay. Seriously ridiculous. Suggest you fly out asap as overstay fine is simple process at airport. Why require money from WU. You don't have internet banking with foreign credit card at the very least.

Most of that period has been due covid. With all the "covid extensions" and amnesty. Try doing the same over next year period. Many posts such as this ignoring covid Current threads are about future situation where past few years irrelevant.

Via air think it's 90 days visa exempt. Not sure re border entries.

Fast tract is no different to other lanes. Same scrutiny.

The "brother " of friends works in Thailand doing online teaching. Lives in Thailand continuously with TV. Rubbish. Perhaps you are referring to covid 2 year period. That has past. As for your situation....tick tok. You cannot sustain ongoing stay in Thailand using tourist visas. Folk wanting to have ongoing living in S.E.A can combine living in Thailand with substantial stays in other countries . Such as Vietnam. These threads are in the main fitting a round peg in square hole. Thailand has some of the most flexible options available including PE visa etc. Back to back ongoing SETV not an option.

If reading your post correctly you mention "online teaching" Seems you mean teaching Thai clients English without a work permit? As for your other point of experiences pre covid... In 2019 there were many refused entry at Bangkok airports for trying to use ongoing back to back tourist visas and visa exempt entries. Good luck with that in the future.

Correct. In most situations the OP would exit Thailand after his ME Non O visa has expired but still with current permission of stay. Then upon exit his current permission of stay would end and he could attend Savannakhet for a new ME Non O. Savannakhet will not issue him with a new visa if (as per the plan he outlines) he would still have current valid visa in pp.

Age? If under 50 marry the chick as you can't afford a PE visa or any of the other options.

Which province

I did exactly that 3 weeks ago and certificate of residence was required at Chatuchak. Pink ID would not cut it. Back to your comment re opening a bank account.... You stated in reply to status in Thailand. "Non O Thai wife - December 2022 - BKK" I have already stated that a extensions from a non O would be sufficient until recently to open bank account. Anyway enough. Don't accept your account for TDL renewal.

At a guess you have extensions from a non O or similar. When did you open account last year and which province. From my previous post.... "I opened a new account at another bank couple of years ago however I had extensions from non O Also rental agreement ( can't recall if that was even necessary. Kasikorn bank" )

It's a very recent change. I opened a new account at another bank couple of years ago however I had extensions from non O. Also rental agreement ( can't recall if that was even necessary. Kasikorn bank. At the same time Bangkok Bank straight up refused even with my non O. They wanted certificate of residence or letter from embassy. This was all in Bangkok. Things have changed a LOT even in last several months. Perhaps now not even possible to open bank account with visa exempt stamp. Even places such as Jomtien requiring COR. The issue in Bangkok (at CW) is to obtain COR you need to have made a TM47. Not possible on tourist visa. BTW for TDL the transport offices require a COR. Thinking previously Pink ID cut it. The added scrutiny seems to be down to money laundering laws.

From the OP... "I stated to open a bank account..." A Yellow book would be useless. He requires a certificate of residence.

There is a motor vehicle forum. One of the mods will move thread for you.

Your assumption is correct. The only time that you would bother to printout your TM47 confirmation is eg attending immigration to obtain something the requires it.

Online works ok after reentry. After filling in name and pp # hit the magnifying glass ???? that auto fills rest of the fields. Must remember to change entered date.
