Hello, can someone help me. Im now in thailand for 1 month without visa but i was thinking about travel to vietnam for one week. Can i do the ”visa run”? And im from finland so i have finland passport
Answer summary
A Finnish passport holder currently in Thailand without a visa can consider doing a visa run to Vietnam. However, it is important to verify the specific entry requirements of the Thai embassy as they may vary. Additionally, be prepared to present the necessary '3 proofs': proof of accommodation, proof of onward travel, and proof of funds.

Just make sure you have the "3 proofs" : - Proof of accommodation for at least your first few nights (hotel booking or a letter of invite from a Thai)

- proof of onward travel (international travel ticket leaving Thailand within your initial entry stamp exit by date)

- proof of funds (20,000 Baht or equivalent in any major currency in CASH per individual, or 40,000 for a family)

If you want to do a visa run then make sure you check the requirements of the Thai embassy you decide to go to as they are all different, even different ones inside the same country. If you're talking about a border bounce then no problem if you haven't been to Thailand multiple times in the past year already.

shouldn't be any issues from Thailand. When you go to board your flight in Vietnam they may ask you to show proof you'll be leaving Thailand within 45 days though.
