Your Cambodian visa should have an expire date if used by that time you’ll get 30 days on entry

No. Tony, why do thing so without knowing the facts. Everything was well thinking. Booked a Hostel in Battambang for 18.5. because I applied for 18.5 entry. so it can not be my fault when Cam gvt. Issued the visa at 19.5.

Go to the border and play for two days in the casino before proceeding.

"I am horrified to discover that the Cambodia visa I received will only be valid if I exceed my 30-day visa-free stay in Thailand by 2 days." If you have a Visa for Cambodia why is it not already valid, is there a "valid after" date on it?
