True; BUT in nov my Cambodian partner needed her tourist visa for Thailand< as we lived in Kep. it was worth the $80 vs travelling to PP back and forth 2 times 🙂
and often the agents can "ease" some requirements ..
Put the money in a Thai Bank< head over to Phnom Penh with ur bank book an apply for a Non O visa> as it does not be seasoned > Use an agent ( I recommend Cina Travel on street 130 near riverside or Luck Lucky motorcycle on Monivong)
not exactly; A border bounce is also used by those on 1 year multi entry VISAS that only allow 90 day entries! Thats NOT a visa run as no new visa is purchased and one ONLY needs exit, and return
