unlimited land border crossings

[BananaBandit]

Just want to double-check:  Are they still unlimited?

[Nick Carter icp]

Well , they are unlimited, but that doesn't mean they are guaranteed or given without restrictions .

   You may need a flight ticket back to your home Country before they allow you to enter Thailand or a Condo contract 

[Dan O]

No they are not unlimited, there is just not a specified limit listed so they can say denied at any time if they see a history that implies trying to live in country but not on a proper visa  entry

   They were previously limited to 2 land border crossings per calendar year , that restriction is no longer in place  , so there are unlimited land entries now

[zzzzz]

YES, legally they are unlimited
Until the immigration officer decides , not for you

Its always, (even with a visa) up to the IO on arrival to allow you in

Proof of onward travel, not a flight to your home country.

A friend of mine has done 4 entries this year, with border bounce companies. I don't know if its unlimited, but there is no stated limit anymore, and the "rules" are now the same as with air entries. I wouldn't test my luck without a visa run company though.

Unlimited implies the is no quantity restriction or stopping point, which is not the case. There is not a specified quantity as there used to be, just as air entry is not specified but you can be denied at any time so they are not "unlimited". Small distinction but there you have it.

  The O.P was asking whether they are still limited to 2 per year or whether they are now unlimited ,the answer to that question is that they are unlimited .

   I was required to have a flight back to my home Country before they would stamp me into Thailand at immigration , they wanted to see a flight back to the U.K within 60 days . 

  No flight to the UK, then not allowed in .

They are not unlimited, they just dont have a limit specified any longer.  I believe my answer is accurate. Sorry if you dont agree

They technically are, but if you try to abuse the system and stay long term on visa exemptions, you will be denied entry at some point.

  They are unlimited . 

Although that doesn't mean that that there are no restrictions , but you can get an unlimited amount of land border entries, as long as conform to the requirements of obtaining one 

[Goethe]

Any and every entry into Thailand is subject to the discretion of the Immigration Officer. (This is standard practice all over the world.)

The only valid answer to the question: "Can I get unlimited entries for 60 days" is: "Yes -- until you can't."

No limits have been defined for the moment.

 

I suspect that the inability of the authorities to competently articulate that fact led one of their number to declare that entries were "unlimited".

 

Many limits in Thailand are undefined.

Sorry if your too thick to understand the difference. So we'll just disagree on the definition

 

   It seems to be your inability to understand the difference between "unlimited" and "unrestricted " and "guaranteed ".

  Last year they were limited to 2 per year , this year they are NOT limited to 2 per year . 

   Although there are restrictions and entry isn't guaranteed and entry can be refused for certain things , but entry will not be refused  for going 3 times

I speak and understand English quite well. 

Not being limited by any number does not say its unlimited, it means there isn't a specified number any longer.  This conversation with you is over as its circular. We disagree on the definition.

   Last year they were limited to 2 per year .

This year they are not limited to 2 per year .

So, what word fits this sentence ?

Land entries are limited/ not limited to 2 entries per year ?

[Dan O]

You cant read well can you? Removing the wording "limit of 2 does per year" does not not say unlimited entries allowed. Show a official link or stop.   The discussion is over

[Briggsy]

I actually agree with both @Dan O and @Nick Carter icp
