I plan to hang around Thailand for at least until the end of February but this could very easily turn into longer (another 12 months but won't know until early Feb)
I am 32 years old and married to a Thai. Money can be put in a bank account to show whoever if needed but I would rather not (especially at the current rates)
My time line so far (and coming up) is:
October 16 arrived Thailand got 30 days on arrival.
November 12 will depart via plane Thailand for Laos
December 1 (approx) fly back into Thailand from Laos and pick up another 30 days.
So If I stick with the tourist visas I assume I will need to leave the country again on December 30 which will then make 3 tourist visas in a row. Is that rule still about where 3 times and I am out or can I go on doing this indefinitely? If not, any suggestions on what I should apply for?
I am about a 2 hour drive from the chong mek border, can I do my tourist visa runs there? Can I apply for other visas there or will I need to go to bangkok?
