I need to do a border run I live in prachin buri if I make my own way to poipet is there an agent there who will walk my passport through the process...thanks

I have read, with a previous question asked here, to avoid Poipet border crossing at all costs to return into Thailand.

Unfortunately our bus from Siem Reap crosses the border in Poipet.

We are visa exempt and were only in Thailand recently for 28 days, returning only for 2 weeks before flying home. We only travel to Thailand every few years.

Can anyone please explain why Poipet is highlighted by a moderator to avoid at all cost??

Need an advice. What's the best way to travel to Poipet border, one way? Thanks in advance!

High guys, was about to self drive to aranyaphratet to do a border bounce but ive been reading around its seems like a bad idea to go there. I came in to thailand with a visa exemption and i have already done a visa extention at bkk immigration and that will finishes on 28 tomorrow My flight is on the 5th feb back home. What are my options? Fly Malaysia 1 day? Try ban leam border? I use to live in aranyaphratet been poipet manny times but i have no confidence in that right now. It was malayasian airlines that moved my flight to the 5th with my travel insurance due to flight and transfer delays and they offerd me that date. my passport is fairly new with one entry stamp and extension.

Good evening guys, I’m currently at the borderPoi pet Thailand side I am planning to go across tomorrow morning. What choices have I got do I have to stay one night or can I go for a couple hours I’ve been in Thailand for 45 days tomorrow came in by air regards

Can I get 45 day visa overland if before end of March or do I have to arrive by flight?

I’ve already had a 45 day and 30 day extension on current visit

Thanks

Can Indians get visa on arrival at Poipet-Thai border or do they have to apply for it in advance at Thai Embassy here in Phnom Penh? I don't intend to spend time in Thailand. It's just for border run for Cambodian eVisa stamp. Thanks for your help🙏

Short report from Poipet border.

Most of us know this is not the landborder of choice for many reasons, however I thought I would share what I was told yesterday:

Visa: non Imm O ME from Savannakhet based on marriage.

I had been flying to Siem Reap a few days before, then crossed the border by land.

The officer didn't seem to have any issues with my visa. She told me however that crossing the border by land when flying in was wrong and not allowed.

I was told I need to either fly back or cross the border into Cambodia by land then go back by land or fly back.

All of this makes little sense but I played along, apologized for being clueless and got stamped out with a vocal warning, nothing in the passport.

To my knowledge this is an arbitrary rule which can't be referred to anywhere in actual documents, correct me if I'm wrong.

It never seemed like she would send me back to Poipet, however if I would had been bitching about it and question her in a confrontational way there might have been a different ending.

Just a heads up for those who needs to cross that border for one reason or another.

Ralph Davidson Hope this query fits admins guidelines. Any suggestions as to which border crossings are favourable at the moment for 3 month renewels for marriage visa - looking for day trips to Myanmar or Cambodia. (visa was obtained august in savannakhet and first renewal was trip to Oz.) Asking because I haven't done a visa run in years and am not up to speed. I use to use Poipet. Cheers.

A question regarding exiting the country for a visa run at aranyaprathet poipet border. Is there anything special I should know before I go there? Can it all be done in one day? What’s the easiest way to get there bu driving or use a service?
