@John *********
ok. So to be safe would you recommend not to try and go to Penang for a tourist visa?

@John *********
thank you.

“Make an entry on the database”. Do you mean the refusal will be saved? Yet, it’s not known to be heavy of negative consequences?

John Stanners no last time they refuse a same day border run but they were accepting a new visa exempt if I had staid 2 nights in Malaysia. I went to Penang cause it was better to get 90 days.

I am in Malaysia now. I passed through Sadao border. The officier mentioned to stay 3-4 nights in Malaysia.

I’m thinking of going to Padang Besar tomorrow instead to try to get a visa exempt after spending 1 night.

Would being refused the exempt would make me have a red refused stamp on my passport which would have negative consequences for future visa requests? Or would getting refused would have no impact but to have wasted time?

if you are not joking, how can you get me a stamp on my passport for visa exempt without me going to the border?

I meant border bounce. I didn’t meant having a tourist visa but a visa exempt. It will be the second time If I get a stamp so it’s still possible as you said.

@Tito ********
no I didn’t try to do same day after they told me they wouldn’t give same day? I just went to Penang for a tourist visa because they told me I had to stay overnight in Malaysia.

@Tito ********
i so I go there, I ask to have a visa exempt on the same day. And I may need to pay them 1000 baht?

How would you approach them about the payment?

Would you propose straightforward or wait there request?

Is it also the case if I try to get a visa exempt at the frontier?
