Is it safe to exit to Cambodia by plane and enter back Thailand the same day for the visa run? Anyone ever done this or has experience in this?

TLDR : Answer Summary

The question revolves around the safety and legality of a same-day visa run from Thailand to Cambodia and back. Based on community input, opinions are divided: some users suggest that an overnight stay might be necessary for the Cambodian visa, while others see no issue if entering Thailand under the Visa Exempt rule. The need for clarity on Cambodian visa-on-arrival provisions and verifying current regulations at the Thai Embassy or Consulate is also emphasized.

I think you'd better to check Cambodia visa (on arrival?), some airports requires you to stay overnight. At least that was what I heard when I traveled Cambodia 1.5 years ago.

Sir, can I also do this by border? Like I drive to the Cambodia border, exit and after walking for an hour or two I come back to Thailand?

Not for a Visa run, you apply day 1 for a visa and get it back the next working day at the Thai Embassy or Consulate.
