Will my Malaysian wife be able to enter Thailand with an outbound flight and my work permit information after being refused entry from Cambodia?
Hey all, my Malaysian wife just went to Cambodia to return to Bangkok. She was refused entry and now needs to fly, the immigration said an outbound flight from BKK and my work permit info would suffice for entry at the airport, as she is meant to have unlimited entry due to nationality we are devastated by this. Do you think she will be okay to enter with my info and an outbound flight? Thanks in advance

i thought they had stopped the covid extension already.Flying in from Vietnam should be no problem. My Malaysian cousin who is working in BKK had no problem when he flew back from Vietnam after a holiday there.

She can fly back to Malaysia and then enter Thailand by land through any of the land borders from Perlis all the way to Kelantan. Of course the best choice is at the Bukit Kayu Hitam/Sadao land entry where she can go to Hatyai to catch a flight straight to BKK..

People are having problems flying into Bangkok with covid extension stamps. Best option is to fly into Phuket or take a land crossing over a border

not 100% she feels it was the covid extension but we are puzzled because she is Malaysian and went Cambodia for 5 daysAndy *********
OPNo refusal stamp as she was able to return into Cambodia (reversal) they advised her to fly in with my details and an outbound flight.

Look at the stamp in her passport. If she was denied entry there's a stamp with a Thai character 1-10. That number corresponds to the reason she was refused.Activity
