adv008 Posted August 30, 2022 Share Posted August 30, 2022 Hello. Could someone advise please. I am planing a trip to Chiang Khong. I have a Non O Multi visa and am coming up to 90 days in Thailand. Is it a requirement to stay one night in Lao or can I simply turn round and come back into Thailand. Any information appreciated thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A bounce is to get a new 90 days of stay using just the immigration desks, a visa is going to a consulate etc, to get a visa, perhaps an overnight thing.

DrJack54 Posted September 1, 2022 Share Posted September 1, 2022 3 minutes ago, ifmu said: thank drj difference in a bounce and a visa ..is what ? Folk exit Thailand at places such at land border Laos to either obtain a visa (eg tourist visa). OR exit and reenter at the border with either ME non O (as is the case with OP) as an example or visa exempt entry. So the first is a Visa Run. and second a Border Bounce.

KhunBENQ Posted September 1, 2022 Share Posted September 1, 2022 At Nong Khai/Vientiane (July 17) I turned back about 2 hours later (finally studying silly prices at some fancy duty free shop ). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
