@Sarah **************

so you know that it’s going to be down to the immigration officer and they are now really looking at things. So give your best smile lol honestly any agency telling you rubbish like that ignore.

It’s literally down to the officer on the day as if you come in December then you’re looking at approx 160 days this year which means they’re quite within their rights to say you’re not here as a tourist but living here and on the wrong visa so it’s pot luck honestly.

Worst case they say go away and you’re off to Vietnam haha

But the most likely is they’ll tell you this is the last time and you need to have the appropriate visa but it is pot luck

Hi Sarah. As a Brit you have 60 days when you come in and you can then extend a further 30 days at immigration.

You can do a border run to poipet from bkk and get a further 60 days again.

However if you are considering that then it’s just as cheap to do a cheap flight to KL stay overnight and fly back in and get 60 days again as in theory there is no limits on air entry as it were.

Of course immigration are a law unto themselves here but if I was coming here I wouldn’t pay an agent with my British passport I would do the 60 day and then extend 30 more at immigration for 1900 baht

If she hasn’t done a border run before then worth doing the first time. As from bkk she can leave on one of the buses at 4am be back by 4pm all sorted and has her 60 days again. Much easier to do yes

@Mark *****

if you’re in bkk I would use an organised trip I did cost 4000 picked you up in bkk and dropped you off again and lunch and no hassle at all

Visa run to Cambodia will give you 60 days

Hi ronnie getting a retirement visa isn’t an issue. The challenge is you said about working here which is very unlikely to say the least, it requires a lot of paperwork from an employer so it does depend on the type of work you want to do or are qualified to do here. It is very limited and even more so with age unfortunately. But getting a retirement visa no issue at all

Not if you know the right agent in bkk then no there’s no real point

I would say as you get the 60 days on entry the best and cheapest way is to just then do a border run and get the additional 60 days so more than your intended 102.

Don’t do an extension as you’ll only be at 90 and therefore still need to do a border run as have paid the extra 1900 for nothing whatsoever

Wise without doubt is the easiest and usually the cheapest way. You will get the odd person who likes to just rant around but generally wise is the best.

Well they won’t show direct flights from Pattaya would they

Skyscanner you can fly direct from bkk to Phnom Penh so just get to the airport simple
