Can Indians get visa on arrival at Poipet-Thai border or do they have to apply for it in advance at Thai Embassy here in Phnom Penh? I don't intend to spend time in Thailand. It's just for border run for Cambodian eVisa stamp. Thanks for your helpπŸ™

TLDR : Answer Summary
Indians cannot receive a visa on arrival at the Poipet-Thai border. Instead, they should apply for a visa in advance or may be eligible for a 30-day visa exemption (or 45 days starting from October 1st). Additionally, some comments suggest that the Poipet border may not be the best option for a border run.

Your going the wrong way. Cambodia is the border run. Grass is greener over here..

That's one of the worst land borders in Thailand, especially if you're just doing a border run. I'd look elsewhere

Thank you but this is an old list. Do you have an updated one or is there a way to confirm that information mentioned in this list still holds valid in 2022?
