Don't be shy..

Reason for it in this note.



Quote
Notes: - The reason for this announcement of ministerial regulations is that it has been
found that, on examining the time spent in the Kingdom by aliens receiving visa
exemptions to enter the Kingdom temporarily for purposes of tourism by crossing
Immigration check points at land borders, such aliens have tended to spend more time
in the Kingdom than is consistent with the purpose of granting visa exemptions to
enter the Kingdom temporarily for the purpose of tourism. Thus, in order to make
these land border crossings conform to the stated purpose of tourism, it is necessary to
issue these ministerial regulations to limit the number of annual border crossings by
individual aliens using visa exemptions for the purpose of tourism.
 
I wanted to leave others to add their sixpenneth............................ and you did. :smile:



No issues here but I see that those WITH visas are already panicking on ThaiVisa (confusing border runs with leaving the country every 90 days).
