Hi all, looking for some advice regarding Visa notes in Thailand.

I'm planning to get a 30 day note upon arrival from London, before heading straight to Vietnam.

I will get another 30 day note on return from Saigon before heading south to the islands.

I will then fly to Phnom Penh before returning to Thailand by land from Poipet giving me another 15 days.

I am then flying to Luang Prabang before re-entering Thailand via Vientiane/Udon Thani, giving me another 15 days.

Is this an acceptable way of re-entering Thailand? I'm aware that you can't amass more than 90 days on Visa notes and I think the above will work out ok, however 2 years ago I had a very small overstay and am now paranoid about doing the same thing!

Cheers for any advice.

The limit of 90 days visa-exempt stay in Thailand within 6 months was abandoned over a year ago. Therefore, no worry there.

Be advised that the airline might refuse you to board if you don't have a visa or ticket out of Thailand within 30 days.

Thanks for the advice so far. I am only in Asia for 5 and a half weeks so I presume my London return ticket would suffice to allow me to board any planes into Thailand?

As you will only get a max 30 days entry you should either have onward ticket within those 30 days or a visa. If you have the Saigon ticket you should be fine for initial arrival and probably later but you did not specify dates or if you hold tickets.
