Now hoping for a smooth immigration process 🤞 (touch wood)

If I applied for visa in uk , to arrive bkk , but I actually changed my route and wanted to enter by land boarder from canbodia into Thailand, would that be still OK

Will it still get approved when arrive at the gate

Hi, does anyone have info on the Phnomdei border crossing point from Cambodia into Thailand ?

Have friends crossing by land to visit soon and was wondering if this was “easier “ than Poi Pet / Aranyapathet crossing.

Thanks for any help 🙏

Is there a limit to the number of entries by land (from Cambodia)? My visa expires on 20.1.25 and in 2024 I will exceed the annual 180 days, does the count reset in a new year? 🙏🙏

Hey Everyone,

I’m wondering if anyone has had experience with getting the DTV Visa from Cambodia through the new E-visa system?

I was really hoping to apply in person, but they’ve fully switched online now. My biggest concern is that I cannot properly submit all the paperwork I prepared because the online submission only allows for 1x3MB file. I’m applying as a freelancer and need to submit my portfolio, and US Business Registration, and I can’t fit it all into a small enough file.

My plan initially was to print out all of the paperwork and kind of overkill the paperwork side with proof of everything, my portfolio and 6 months bank statements, etc. Now I’m just nervous I won’t be approved, because I can’t fit it all onto the application online.

My flight/hotel is already booked in Phnom Penh for next week. Hoping for the best but any reassurance, or insight would be greatly appreciated 🙏🏼

Do land border crossing give 60 day visa exempt?

I will be crossing from Cambodia and back. Chong Chom

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

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??

I am an Australian and entered Thailand for 60 days at Suvarnabhumi on a multi entry tourist visa on 2 May. I have recently got my 30 day extension. I know that if I fly to Penang and back at the end of July, I will be stamped in for another 60 days. My question is...if I border bounce to Cambodia with a reputable company at the end of July, will I be stamped in for 30 days or 60 days using the land crossing?

I live in Cambodia, but my passport is from Bangladeshi. I want to visit Thailand so how I can get visit visa
