Last time i went for a border run to Laos, i received a 60 day visa, but when i went to cambodia i only got 30 days sir, i am certaint about that... 

Are you receptive to advice? 

 

Just to be clear for others..

A border run means exit reenter visa exempt. 

That gives 30 day stamp.

 

A visa run means you attend a consulate or embassy and apply for a VISA. 

 

You have advice from experts such as @BritTim and yet continue questioning advice provided.

    What do you mean? we are allowed to do 2 visa runs each calender year.. if you go to laos twice during that calender year u can only stay in the country for 2 months total time, but if you go to laos

  • The rules on entry are much the same as before Covid. In particular, yes, you can get two visa exempt entries by land in each calendar year (but that gives you 30+30 days on each entry, not three mont

Ok., I read all of the post and replies, How about if:

I enter visa exempt...land or air...then go to IM and extend another 30 days.,60 days total.

Can I exit and return again? Visa exempt...30 days. and then go to IM and extend another 30 days.?

So 60 plus 60 ...

 Second question. How many consecutive visa exempts are allowed? I read one post that says 2 a year....60 days ?

Each entry with a tourist visa or visa exempt can be extended once by 30 days.

You are permitted 2 visa exempt entries at land borders per calendar year.

 

Via air no stated limit, however continuous back visa exempt entries would lead to scrutiny and possible refusal of entry.

Pre covid or now, it has never been possible to run to the border of Lao and come back to Thailand with 60 days stamp. The stamp is only for 30 days. But if you went into the Vientiane Thai Embassy and applied for a 60 day tourist visa then you can have 60.
