HI everybody

Plese tell me how can I do

I (Japanese) just come back from visa run company in Phuket.

I have been in Phuket since November 2011

MY visa record: 3 W T/R visa 3 S T/R VISA

visa exceptions 6 times since last Nov in my passport

I am applying to ED visa, but ministry of ED needs time over 1 month to give me a permission

so, I must stay Thailand 2 or 3 month, after get a paper work of permission, go to Penang to get ED visa.

【Problems】

Visa run company told me Penang consulate givesT/R visa us only 2 times,

so not good for me

Visa run to Ranong is not available for me (over record)

Visa run to Satun-Lankhawi (Maleysia)is still OK for me,but not sure for 2 times and more

【My option】

A. Go to Vien Charn to take a T/R visa with Bank report and Adress certificate

B. Go back to Japan to renew my passport ,after that go to Penang to get T/R visa
