Help! Confused Over New Visa Regulations

[Lost in translation!]

Hi

My monthly stamp is due to expire on 26th September. I have been in Thailand for 9 months now so have quite a few visits to the border. 3 months ago i got a new passport so i don't have many stamps, but i understand your visits are recorded on computer every time you got to the border.

What I want to know is due to the new laws, will i be allowed to have another stamp when i got to the border on 26th September or will they see I have quite a few already. I'm going to look for a job so I can stay longer, as this appears to be the only option. I need to stay for another 3 to 6 months, as my boyfriend is thai and we are applying for a visa so he can come to the UK, but this will take some time.

Any help or advice is greatly appreciated.

Immigration will start counting from zero on October 1st. So it should not be any problem at all for you to do a border run on Sept 26 as this one "will not even count". But keep your eyes open for more information as more news will come from a big meeting just now taking place at the head office of Thai Immigration.
