  1. More and more previously "closed" countries are opening up, offering various kinds of visas for digital nomads, retirees etc. It's a global trend.
  2. Anyone did a single day border bounce there? Is it tolerated?
  3. I was questioned there too, but I've been in Thailand since 2020 on covid extensions and visa exemption stamps
  4. Border runs. Dozens of minivans going to the Malaysian border and back every day.
  5. Unless you are very big and heavy, a 125cc scooter should be enough for you.
  6. I've never seen 135cc scooters in Thailand. Most low-end scooters available for rent are 125cc (Honda Click, Scoopy etc.). The higher category is 155/160cc (Honda PCX, Yamaha Aerox, NMax etc.).
  7. I had the same problem at Ban Laem in November 2022. Was doing my first border hop after 2+ years in Thailand on covid extensions (the whole covid period, including the amnesty). They told me I cannot leave by land because "I was in Thailand too much". The issue was solved by contacting the superintendent's office: They promptly let me out (and back in of course).
  8. In Vietnam, it would not made news. It happens there every day, multiple times.
  9. Yep, a slummy area with dirt cheap rooms
  10. There is no official 6 months rule. It's pure speculation.
  11. In my "own" country I feel exactly the same, even worse
  12. It's still pretty easy to do agency-assisted border runs
  13. Who wanna stay in <deleted>ty Viet Nam?
  14. I had the same problem there. They didn't want to let me out after 2+ years on covid extensions (the whole covid extensions period, including the amnesty). Contacting the superintendent's office solved the issue: they promptly let me out (and back in of course).
  15. When was your last (current) entry into Thailand? 5 years ago?
  16. Mine is just below the average hehe
  17. This is sooo Thailand. To apply for an e-visa, you must be physically located in your passport country. Nonsense.
