Hi Guys, bit of a situation. I'm coming to Thailand from Phnom Penh for 38 days, I was going to apply for the 60 day tourist visa from here until I realised I've misplaced my UK passport. A replacement would take too long, so I'm going to have to get an "emergency travel document" which allows me to go to 5 countries on the way to my destination. I believe I have to specify dates for each country. Does anybody know if I can get 30 days on arrival AND THEN extend it for 30 days once in Thailand if I'm on an emergency travel document? Can I specify that I will be staying in Thailand 38 days on my emergency document even though I don't yet have the extension or know if it's even possible? I'm a little worried and wondering if it's best to stay in Cambodia an extra 8 days so that I can just get 30 days on arrival with the emergency document. Does anybody have experience in this situation?
