What's so good about Thailand that you need to get over there and rush back here/
For now you can get a Covid extension. No need to do a "visa run". They're valid until end of January.

Neither one of the Thai consulates in Cambodia are selling visas. The eVisa system is not enabled there yet either.

@Jukka ********
I believe so. I want to go to Cambodia for New Year :-)

Greg Bewick. You could try applying for your Thailand Pass before you leave Thailand? I don't know how that would work, or even if it would work, but someone should give it a go. It might make a "border bounce" a possibility for those who need one

Bangkok Air has flights to Phnom Penh listed for December. Not sure the date flights will begin. I think they fly three days a week.

@Darren ******
a very reliable source…it should be published in the Royal gazette prior to 26 Nov Wannikea *********
@Darren ******
Richard Barrow reported the possibility today, still not officialDarren *******
@Wannikea ********
just seen Tod's post, definitely seems to be a case of wait and see as you say.Darren *******
@Wannikea ********
he might've stickied it, I'll go take a look over thereWannikea *********
@Darren ******
likewise, I can't find it either, but, in Thai visa advice there was also a post that was withdrawn and Tod Daniels made a little post about it to the effect of we'll wait for more conclusive evidence. So...as with many things Thai, nobody's sure of anything including the leaks.Darren *******
@Wannikea ********
can't see anything there, maybe I'm going blind! Most interesting tweet of his today is the one from Koh Phangan about them not giving the covid extensions to unvaccinated people.Wannikea *********
@Darren ******
might have been on twitter, possibly FB and TwitterDarren *******
@Wannikea ********
thanks, I hadn't seen that so I'll go take a look

Kevin ***********
@David ******
Ah I get you, yes it it's been business visas only for quite a while, but now they've reopened the old system, so you can buy it online as before. Maybe not available in the airport yet?
Will ************
Once there you’ll be subject to entry rules the same as everyone else. TPASS etc
Bobby ********
Getting there is no problem, but once there you have to go through the Thailand Pass application process in order to get back into Thailand
Wannikea *********
Country is open, but getting there and back from Thailand is a whole different ballgame.
Kevin ***********
@Wannikea ********
Yeah but if you get there, you might not want to come back 😁Paul *******

Yes true. OK, Cambodia hasn't been great recently but it seems to finally be improving.Activity
