Crackdown Banning 'walk-In Visa Runs' To Begin August 13

That may be. The Thai consulate in Los Angeles says you would have 180 days to use a two entry tourist visa. http://www.thaiconsu...aspx?link_id=25

 

Thank you so much for that link, nkped. That makes much more sense for someone who truly wants to be a tourist in SE Asia.

 

I will contact the secretary for my next double entry visa, and as politely as I can point out the link you sent me.

She may not know the regulations and fears losing face. If still no joy, I'll try Canberra or Tasmania.

 

Thank you kindly again.

So, why did the 90 days in country in 180 day span not work?

 

The consecutive tourist visa thing is too vague. I thought TAT wanted tourists to use Bangkok as a hub to visit other countries in the region? This consecutive visa thing destroys that idea. What tourist wants to risk getting deported after visiting Siem Reap for a couple of days?
