Thank you so much for all the answer

So I just arrived in Cambodia

I think that I have 2 options :

Ask for a tourist e-visa from Siam reap , or

Going to Vietnam to also apply for or evisa tourist or DTV (quicker in Vietnam than Cambodia my friends said me)

I am just scared about : did the Thai embassy gonna give me the tourist e visa ? Or maybe not because they are a bit bored of people coming from Cambodia because of the issues that they had ….

Thanks you again for the help

The Thai immigration was horrible : I learn and speak Thai 100% / doing Muay Thai doing fight too .

And because their own administration allowed me last year to do several visa run : at Suvarnabhumi they was like « why you don’t do visa ? why you come Thailand like » but they maybe forget that « we do that because THAI people allowed us to do this and they also take advantage of this !! »

Finally , before taking my plane at 7.30 pm today to get out from Thailand to Cambodia : the « security guard » who was following me the all Thai said me « I you had given some money the boss let you go » … knowing after they was claming for hours for « need to have good visa » instead they was doing stamp to all the people was giving some money MTFK …. I didn’t even think to do that I was to upset ..

Anyway this is a short part of the story that I wanted to share thank for all the answer

No idea why and you do not have to explain, but persons do not get locked in a cell and ordered to leave the country without a good reason.

I would suggest to solve those problems before you start to apply for a visa.

a Visa does not guarentee an entry into Thailand, it just gives you a certain amount of days IF you are allowed to enter.

Is it a nice cell?

There is nothing to stop you from applying in Cambodia. And PP is quite nice. Maybe slow a bit with processing from RTE there.

But due to strained relationships with Cambodia at present, you might want to apply from Vietnam or Laos instead. Both are just a cheap flight away from PP

What? Yes foreigners/Europeans can apply in Cambodia but I think recently the processing time has been quite long.
