Covid was plessing for me. They didn't care how long you've stayed and I just ran through immigration. 24 years of history being here with all sorts of visas and exemptions.

Once I even flew to Phnom Penh from Europe and took a bus to Thailand. Was so sure that they'll not let me in.

Now I'm 50y , so don't have to play the system anymore. The only good thing for coming old.

@James *******

yes I did

I went to immigration pattaya last week and they told me that don't need 90 day report. Reason was coz I don't have 1 year extension

I think he means "why is there such a visa and what was the logic behind when it was invented"

My answer, I have no idea

Get your visa from Vietnam and come back by bus.

See the countryside have fun. Takes only couple of days

Phnom penh is not good place to get the visa if you have a stamp or 2 in your passport. I know only 1 or 2 agent that can get you the visa there. This was 7 month ago

Make sure that you can return to Vietnam if they denied you entry to Thailand. Otherwise you'll be flying back to home.

I'm just happy they give you 30 day extension. It used to be 7

Few years back pattaya was so busy that they told me to come back last day. I had 4 days left in my stamp. Line was all the way to the soi.

Might need to tip for coming straight back to th.

No extra docs

Go to ban laem or ban pakaard. Those are closest ones for you. Both are also very friendly border crossings
