Do not think so.

I have plenty of exemption stamps (over 8 months of in and out). I would like to get one more. Would you recommend Laos road crossing or an airplane? I would come back to Thailand in 2023.

 Yes, I edited my post above with more details. Additionally, and this was my personal issue, I had a lot of problems with the Thai border police too. Not sure if it would be different for me with the Nongkhai crossing, though.
 If you stay in Thailand for more than 6 months on Covid or exemption stamps - you better choose another border (again, Nongkhai WAS a smooth ride for me many times before Covid).

 

Will 6 months reset to 0 when year 2023 starts?

Update. I've got another exemption stamp at Suvarnabhumi with a welcoming smile.

ban packard (pakkad) is shown here - https://bit.ly/3Rl9aVx or ban laem ( which is about 30km further north), both are in Chantaburi

Do you know what's gonna happen if I'm rejected to enter Thailand by land? Will I have to walk back to Cambodia and pay another visa fee?

Hello,

What are the chances of me getting another visa exempt stamp when arriving by air?

1. I arrived in Thailand in March by air. Got 30 days stamp + 30 days extension later on.

2. Left Thailand and came back by air in June.  Got another exempt stamp 30 days + 30 days extension.

3. Got COVID visa extension 60 days.

What are the chances of me getting another stamp when leaving and returning by air? I've heard you can get only 2 in a year and also that you can stay up to 6 months in the Kingdom. Is that true? I think I'm running out of options. I just need one more stamp here and then can go back home for Christmas. Any ideas? Maybe apply for a tourist visa in one of the neighboring countries?

No sense in not trying.  At worse, they'll simply turn you around, and maybe a 500 baht fine for no license, and you're on your way back to Phuket beaches.

 

Plenty of them to explore if you haven't yet.  Stay a couple nights at each, and you used up a month of holiday.

I've paid one 500 baht ticket already.Don't want another one. There are many checkpoints in Phuket these days. 

I might go to Phang Nga by bus and rent a motorbike there.

Legal, not sure, but who is gong to know.  I suppose some vendors don't want you leaving the island.   I never read any of the fine print, though never left either.

 

Krabi, Surat Thani, Nakhon Si Thammarat and Phangna are lovely areas to explore.  All nearby and I've looped around that area more than a few times.  

There is a police checkpoint when entering/exiting Phuket. They might not like my idea of travelling far on a rental. Not to mention I don't have a driving license.

Hello.

Is it possible to go on a rental motorbike from Phuket to other province? Or is it not legal?

Thanks

You can obtain covid extension 60 day permit prior to May 25

When does your current permit expires? 

23rd of May. I will try to find out more about this, thanks.

Hello,

I arrived on a 30 days visa exemption. Later extended it for another 30 days at Immigration office. Is that true I can't extend it anymore?

If that's the case can I do a visa run and get a completely new visa exemption stamp or not? (because of the previous extension)

Thanks.

Off-topic question: If I'm just transiting through Suvarnabhumi airport and don't intend to go through Thai immigration process do I still need 50.000 $ insurance? Thanks.
