visarunner

Your biggest mistake was to go to that border in the first place. Other borders would have let you in with visa exemption stamp.

Not in Poi Pet, everyone that reads this Forum regulary should get it by now.

Savannakhet has recently becoming stricter and stricter. Not an easy destination anymore.

The first change to Unlimited visa run was 2006, hence afterwards the word "border run or border bounce" became established. "Visa Run" ,nowadays is used for Visa application at a Thai Embassy.

Russians have Unlimited access to Thailand, based on Bilateral Agreement signed 2005.

A couple of month ago I bought a iPhone8 (2nd hand), THB4000, runs iOS 16.3.1. I am a heavy user and no issues, runs smooth.

You are naive. Prepare THB20000 cash (no ATM before Immigration, onward travel ticket and a rental contract will help you at Airport.

and give others a chance to avoid them.

Believe me, he has his own agenda.

But he still has the "canceled" exit stamp from Cambodia, that tells every Thai IO the story. But should be Ok at Airport.

Agree, they handle other accounts.

The post is already a few days old and might have been solved already. We go often to Ban Laem and we know the procedure there, but something in Op story not add up. There is no reason why the IO would refuse you to exit. You got old passport, new passport and Letter, that is all they need to transfer. On the Cambodian side they put visa in your new passport and let you stamp in n out of Cambodia, then you head back to Thai side. Straight procedure. I only aware that for some tiny country like Maldives the Cambodians have refused the visa, because they have never seen the red Maldive passport.

Yes, a denied entry is still flagged in the system.

Looks like you were denied entry, not a serious problem, but they put a remark in the System. That is the reason you get questioned every time. A Tourist visa really not help. Suggest you enter on visa exempt and have cash ready (appr THB20000), a paid room booking for the entire stay and a paid reconfirmed return or onward flight ticket.

They changed to THB3800, thaivisa remain thb3500 and use VIP van.

Raises more questions than answers. Glad that she is now in better care.

Very sad indeed. Cruel people.

but as he is being transferred to the Operation Centre, more opportunities arise.
