Is this border hop still available to get a new 30 day visa exemption? Anyone with recent experience of the process?

Inflation, as don't remember paying more than 300 baht, for whole boat.  More than a few years, but petrol wasn't 35-40 baht either.

So thats the only 2 payments for the whole run? The $10 for Myanmar stamp and the longtail. No other costs ? Does Thai immigration require proof of accommodation for 30 days , TM30 and onward ticket?

Hello, I would like to know the answer to these questions also.  I've been reading about this border hop and seems to be some bad experiences.  Has anyone done it recently?  Were they required to show proof of accomodation and Onward ticket?  Many thanks

Would be very helpful if you can give trip report after return to Thailand.

 

Regards your question 60 day visa exempt entry (another thread) random comments that late June early July. 

I would believe it when I see it.
