Hi. I a uk citizen and arrived here on a 60 day exemption from Philippines. I extended this for 30 day in Chiang Mai.

The extra 30 days will expire soon and my thinking is to go to Laos via Nong Khai then return to be able to extend my stay?

Can I return via the same land border and get another 60 day visa exemption stamp? If so, can I do this on the same day? Or do I need to go to the Thai embassy in Vientiane to get a tourist visa for Thailand? Alternatively, if I fly back to Bangkok from Laos, will I get another 60 day visa exemption?

Any clarity on this much appreciated.

Apologies if this a repeated question. I've read a lot of contrasting information on this and am pretty confused. It also sounds like the rules may have been changed recently.

Thanks in advance.

After 90 days in Thailand, I have to leave the Chiang Kong border and go to Laos... it seems that you have to go back to Thai customs after two days (48 hours) at least, to be able to return to Thailand.. Is all this true...?

Are there pros and cons for applying in Laos over Vietnam? Or say Vietnam over Cambodia? I wanted to explore more of Laos after applying.

What countries (near Thailand) are offering the fastest processing times?

When it was in-person applications, Taiwan was known for being speedy.

Now that everyone is using the e-Visa system, where should they go?

I have nothing against spending a week in Vietnam, Malaysia, Laos, or Cambodia. I'd still prefer a fast turnaround that's hassle-free. But I'd prefer it NOT to be two weeks or longer!

Thanks in advance,

John
