Hi I have a Multi entry Non Immigrant O visa,my first 90 days expires on Sept 29.

Can I do a border run or must I fly out and back

A border run should suffice - unless they've changed the rules recently!

 

Ubon-Joe should be able to give you the final word on this.

You can exit the country and return by any means you want.

Whichever suits you. I used to take a break in adjacent or nearby countries.

Agreed...he is the go to guy for anything on this topic...he knows more than the Thai agent I used previously for my visa issues...

No need for me to reply since the correct answer has already been given by Lite Beer.

For what it is worth I would suggest you have a mini holiday with a flight out to a country close to us.\

Less hassle & looks better.

But the OP is right any exit is legal to the best of my knowledge which is 12 months old

One day return flight from Don Mueang to Kuala Lumpur on Sep 29 (or 28) starts at 2963 Baht.

Expedia quotes 2238 baht.

Which Expedia site?

German site shows significantly higher price (converted from Euro).

Thai site (expedia.co.th) shows exact same price as AirAsia site ("from ฿2,963.60") on Sep 29.

I use the Thai site. It now shows the higher price for Sep 29, but still the lower 2238 for Sep 28.

Flights to Yangon or sometimes Singapore can be even cheaper!

Ridiculous advice for someone who has a Multi-entry Non-Imm visa. Your advice might be ok for someone who was using visa exempt entries - but not for a visa holder.

People have been recently denied exit at Ranong Victoria Point with valid multi non-b visa. Not sure about non-o though...

That is because those with the non-b visa didn't have a work permit to show them. Not a problem for a non-o visa.

 

cancelled.....ubon joe beat me with a correct reply.

i think he must never sleep.

Actually denied with WP. 2 or 3 days ago. They have been telling people to go to Samui to get an extension even though some companies don't qualify.
