FYI - Just crossed from Cambodia to Thailand through Ban Phakkad - The Immigration office have are still stamping 30 day visa exempt

Hi again👋 Thailand-Malaysia border advice. I need to get my 30-day visa exemption and I'm thinking of crossing the Thai-Malay border, likely at Wang Prachan Boundary Post.

Is it possible to drive on a motorbike there and cross the border on foot? Should I get ready for any problems, fees and other expenses? I have an EU passport. Thank you 🤗

EDIT: Is it true you cannot cross there and back in the same day?

Can you drive through Laos to Vietnam,,and back without major problems, both roads and border crossings

Any experiences with crossing Chong Chom border? How is immigation there?

Hi All :)

Advice would be appreciated for my families situation. We have South African passports. It's my husband and I, then our two kids ( 4yrs & 2 yrs).

Background: I worked in Thailand from 2016-2018 and had a NON- B visa. Left at the end of 2018. Haven't been back before/during COVID, so no COVID extensions etc.

1st time back: Oct 2022 visa exempt and entered by air DMK (stayed 28days) left to by air Malaysia (stayed there for 3 months).

2nd time back: 14 Feb 2023 visa exempt and entered by air DMK (stayed 42days) left by air to Laos, did a boarder run but stayed in Laos for 5 days. Loved Vientiane by the way. No questions asked at immigration.

3rd time back: 31st March 2023 visa exempt entered by land ( first time ever) which is valid until 14May.

We have tickets to Phu quoc leaving by air the 14th May. Planning to stay there a month or more and didn't plan on coming back to Thailand but friends from SA will be travelling to Thailand in June/July 2023 and we would like to join them....

What will be the best way to enter? It's for a 10day trip. We will have flights out to the Philippines (from Bkk) as we originally planned to go after Phu Quoc.

Do we fly into BKK or will Phuket be better? Or would it be better flying into Malaysia and doing crossing the boarder?

I know its a give or take at immigration, any advice would be appreciated.

Crossing over from Laos to Thailand at the friendship bridge at Mukdahan.

1) Is there a bus or a tuk tuk once on the Thai side to get me to Mukdahan bus station then to BKK?

2) How early, should I get to Mukdahan bus station trying to catch the earliest bus to BKK since it’s a 12 hr Journey …Is there a bus leaving for BKK once or twice a day (schedule)? I Try checking 12GoAsia but nothing showed up. Planning to cross the border on April 20.

TIA

Hi guys,

Is Chanthaburi border run is possible? I plan to drive my car and this is my 1st border run 2023. US passport. Do I need to apply entry visa for Cambodia or just cross the border and come back?

Thank you all and Happy Songkran!

Doing my first border run this month to Laos. Is it visa on arrival or do I have to apply before I go?

Anyone ever taken a private car from Chiang Mai to Laos border for visa run?

Hi all has anyone any experience of the Had lek border crossing? It's been a long time since I've had to do a border bounce so can you still cross for a hour or so and then come back? I've heard you have to stay? If so for how long? I'll probably get a Cambodia e visa is that fairly efficient? And lastly is the a car park on the thai side to leave as I don't fancy driving in Cambodia

Thanks for any assistance
