Hi everybody,

I have a non-multiple entry visa married to a Thai , french passport , living in Rayong and planning to do a visa run to Cambodia.

From what I understand if I go to Poipet, I will have to stay there 1 night, is that right ?

If yes , is there any other point of entry around where I could do it in one day ?

I did it once in Vientiane, is the process the same , no extra document needed ?

Any advice is welcome, thanks

You can go to Ban Laem/Daung or Ban Pakkard/Prum border, both do stamp OUT/IN without problem.

Go to Ban Leam. Easy. Get mini bus to border from Chanthaburi.

Poipet border is known for hassling everyone, doesn't matter what visa you have. Use another border.

Go to ban laem or ban pakaard. Those are closest ones for you. Both are also very friendly border crossings
