Hello , I'm swiss and divorced but we live together near surin , the past 2 years I used a agent to do my visa based on my daughter . I don't want to use the agent again as they have terrible costumer service. My yearly visa will expire next Tuesday. Can I do a a visa run to chom Chong,,osmach and get a 30 days tourist visa ? Then after that can I go to savanaketh for a visa based on visiting my child ? Or do I need a new passport?
Thanks Krub so much
TLDR : Answer Summary
A Swiss expat is inquiring about the possibility of doing a visa run to Chong Chom to obtain a 30-day tourist visa after his yearly visa expires. The individual is wondering if they can then travel to Savannakhet to apply for a visa based on visiting their child and if a new passport is needed. Responses indicate that while a new passport will not change the situation, a visa run to Chong Chom will allow for a 30-day visa exemption but does not provide a visa. It's noted that border bouncing at Chong Chom is straightforward, with minimal questioning.
