Hi all in this great group. I'm going for my first border run on a multiple entry visum. We'll go to ban laem (border chanthaburi - Cambodia). Does anyone know if immigration there will be open this Sunday (17/12)?

We plan to get exit stamp ourselves and then let someone take my passport into Cambodia for entry/exit there.

Can anyone direct me a bit where to go? I guess the border can't be missed? Park at the border and look for immigration building? Take some 'exit' cue?

This is supposed to be between 1700-1900 baht, right?

Thanks so much!

TLDR : Answer Summary
The user is planning their first border run for a multiple entry visa at Ban Laem, and inquires if the immigration office will be open on Sunday, December 17th. They intend to handle their exit stamp themselves and have someone take their passport into Cambodia for the entry/exit. Community responses indicate that the border is open on weekends and holidays, and confirm the process for stamping out of Thailand and obtaining a visa for Cambodia.

Thanks a lot you both. The reason I have to go by myself is that I can't sit and have to lie down in the car. But it seems the advice I got (from outside this group) about getting a 'helper' is not so good. So thanks a lot.

the border doesn't close for weekends or holidays.

You stamp out of thailand buy a visa for Cambodia, walk across get stamped in, turn around get stamped out and then stamp back into thailand.

I don't think you're gonna find someone else to go stamp you in and out of cambodia.:/

As far as the cost, it'll cost what ever the cambodian visa price is..
