The man said:
From October 1st you can travel to the border and re-enter 3 times using the system of waiver of a visa. After that, if you get a single entry tourist visa from abroad you can stay here for 60 days, after that you can get a visa extension for 30 days, so it is already 6 months. Each time you leave the country you can come back with the visa extension again, so the tourist visa intervenes.
I think he has actually come up with some equation that three 28 day stamps plus 1 x 60 day Tourist Visa and then 1 x 30 day extension equals 6 months and is legal.Repeat the process every six months. 
It may sound strange but it would work.  |
Talked with the lawyer friend last night in bangkok. She said the simplist thing for a farang to do right now is just get married to a Thai. Not much paperwork compared to non imm b visa or anything else.
So Crusty I say "get married my friend", come on make the girl happy.
