Visa runs were once the default nomad strategy. That era is ending in several countries — but the concept still matters to understand.
What a Visa Run Actually Is
Leaving a country and re-entering to reset a tourist stamp or trigger a new entry period. Simple in theory, complicated in practice.
Where It Gets Risky
Repeated back-to-back entries without a clear long-stay plan can lead to questions at immigration. Some countries track entry patterns.
Better Alternatives
DTV in Thailand, DE Rantau in Malaysia, longer tourist visas where available, or simply staying fewer days and moving slower.
