also to my point above , it’s not about Thai immigration it’s about the Laos immigration they don’t want people going across just getting a stamp, plus it’s a good way to inject some money into the country ……

it’s still a border bounce mate . Point being your at 180 days and need a new 180 day stamp . Call it what you want but that’s what it is.

Even people doing “visa runs” actually don’t even have visas, they are just renewing a visa exempt

I disagree….. only people using them for the wrong things.

Even this last crack down they are still saying foreigners can in fact open banks. There is no law against it. They are just cracking down and ensuring everyone’s info matches and it’s all correct ✅
