What does the stamp ผ. ผ. 30 on my passport mean after my visa run to Cambodia?
Hi everyone, I've been in Cambodia for a visa run, only my second time in 3 years and noticed something weird on my passeport, they usually stamp 30 days, but this time it's written ผ. ผ. 30. Does someone know what it means?
Answer summary
The stamp ผ. ผ. 30 denotes a 30-day visa waiver, which typically cannot be extended beyond the initial stay. This is different from the standard visa exemption that would normally be indicated by a stamp without the second ผ. The confusion arose because the stamped date reflects a 30-day period calculated from the date of entry.

And in case people can't count 29 days from the 12th of Feb is actually the 12th of march NOT the 17th. (the day you stamp in is day ONE) on an entry stamp.

is 100% correct, Look at the TYPE of stamp this is It is a ผ.ผ.30 <- that is a 30 day VISA WAIVER and it is NOT a ผ.30 <- which is a 30 day visa exempt entry.
ผ.ผ.30 stamps cannot be extended (except for that 7 day application for extension denied stamp that gives you a week to get out of thailand).

OP says he is French so it seems they used the wrong stamp

You are stamped in for 30 days based on a bilateral agreement, not based on the visa exemption rule.
Stay based on this stamp can not be extended.
Stay based on this stamp can not be extended.

Don't think so mate. The only non extendable short term entrys are visa on arrivals, which are 15 days.

that date is actually the 12th of March NOT the 17th :O

29 days plus the day of arrival = 30 days. Stamp is correct.
