Came to Thailand on 60 day tourist visa. Got 30-day extension which expires at the end of month. Can I get another month by doing a border run?

 

Thanks

Yes.

Also you can obtain a 30 day extension to that visa exempt entry.

You can do 2 visa exempt via land per calendar year

It depends on his nationality. For some countries, there is no such limitation.

What's your point.

Yes Malaysian folk do not have that limit as one example.

Do I need qualify every post.

 

The OP came on tourist visa. 

My guess he does have the limitation I indicated..

Perhaps he can clarify.

Yes both countries are limited to 2 visa exempt entries at a land border crossing per calendar year.

Canada 2 visa exempt land border entries per calendar year 

thx a lot. do you guys think it's feasible to get 4 months of visa this way, adding to my previous 2 month visa by plane (+1 extension inside)? I just don't know if they will create an issue for 6 months or so stay in a year.

You should not have a problem doing that.

In reality there is no written rule limiting your stay to 6 months as a tourist.

Think best combo for the 6 month stay is...

Obtain a tourist visa for first entry via air. 

Then obtain 30 day extension.

That gives you ~90 days.

Then do a border bounce with visa exempt entry plus 30 day extension.

Repeat the border bounce with extention.

All up ~7 months.

 

A variation is to instead of the first border bounce obtain another tourist visa.

Places such as Vientiane or even Saigon (for side holiday) good options.

Then with a 60 day Tourist visa only one more in/out visa exempt entry or 30 day exemption is required to provide a 6 month stay.

Enter tourist visa + 30 day extension= approx 3 month.

Obtain another tourist visa (eg Vientiane) + 30 day extension.....

Approx 6 months all up. 

Visa exempt+ extension gives ~2 months. So TV with extention plus one border bounce plus extension only gives 5 months

Two per calendar year.

There are very few countries that do not have a 2 entry limit at land border crossing.
