Normally, no.  They generally want to see onward travel that shows you are leaving within the number of days you will receive upon arrival.  But each airline may interpret the rules differently.

I meant Immigration. If an Immigration Officer asks me for an onward ticket and I show him the ticket with the departure after 88 days rather than within 60 days will it be fine?

I think no problem but you probably will need an onward ticket out of Thailand within 60 days when checking in in Danang.

Since you can extend this visa by 30 days can an onward ticket be within 90 days?

Yes. It's definitely one of the friendliest border crossings. Too out of the way to be overrun with border bouncers, which makes it pleasantly relaxed.

Thank you very much.

Usually when visa run companies go through a specific boarder it usually means there are many ways to "reach an agreement " there even if someone does visa run on its own and has a problem..

They already became accustomed to..

If you don't mind may I ask you last question.

If going from Siem Reap to Chiang Mai through Don Muang I  guess I still will go through the inner immigration check point at Don Muang (no Chiang Mai) and that immigration will not be any more friendlier than the one we deal when we end our travel in DM airport.

Ban Laem and Ban Pakkard.

Thank you.

Is Chom Chong still good for DIY visa run?

I tell you that Aranyaprathet/ Poipet border was bad BEFORE the countries closed during covid and since that border re-opened it's only gotten worse. 

It's so bad even border run companies that lug foreigners to the border every day will not use that crossing.

Which borders (Thailand / Cambodia)  usually use visa run companies?

This thread mentions alternative to using Poi Pet. 

I am aware of this thread and similar ones.

The problem is they are often old and things may change even within month/s not to mention years

I am more interested in new, current situation, experiences.

If I followed old thread advises Chom Chong seems to be more friendlier than other boarding crossings

Anyway thank you for your reply.

I am going to stay in Siem Reap for over a week so i will not use a visa company

I am flying from Chiang Mai to Siem Reap through Don Muang.

Hello,

Does anyone knows what's currently the easiest boarder crossing from Cambodia to Thailand?

I mean for people who has frequent travel history to Thailand.

I have a multiple entry tourist visa, never overstayed, never was denied entry.

Just curious when you last did this bargain basement, I'll bounce myself run to Aranyaprathet/Poipet?
I usually get a couple messages a week from people stuck on the Cambo side who got denied entry comin' back in at that border. AND they hadn't used their two entries a year, by land, OR had extensive entry/stay histories

 

Would you be so kind to reply my question as you seem to know this topic very well, unfortunately I cannot say the same thing to some people who reply here to others.

I have history of staying longer in Thailand on tourist visas, though I have a new passport (only visit to Lao).

Never overstayed, never was denied entry but I were stopped twice in the past for a talk (once at Aranyaprathet 6 years ago)
 I am going to stay in Siem Reap for 10 days and then return to Thailand  
I have Multiple Entry Thai Visa now.
May I have a problem at Aranyaprathet/ Poipet ?
I was also thinking about Don Muang but I am not sure it's better. I think they have similar reputation.

Looking for a insurance at good price, which meet reequipments for STV visa.

I would be grateful for the help.

I read that to open a  Kasikorn FCD USD account minimum deposit of $5K is needed.

I am wondering if that money needs to be deposited during opening account (e.g. in cash) or it can be transferred later (e.g. from abroad)?

I would be grateful for a reply as cannot find that anywhere.

Got one set of papers together, went back to office expecting to be asked to get training from private company as advised by a Thai when getting the list. No mention of training.

 

What time did you go to DLT?

I am wondering what`s the best time go there.

4. Medical Certificate

 

Have you given a form to a doctor or they just have their onw medical certificate forms for driving license?

My 2 year bike driving license expired in December.

I waited until I got  my ED visa as my understanding was that I will be able to renew for 5 years instead of 2.

I just got ED visa. 

Has anyone recently renewed DL in CM? What`s your experience? What documents or other things were requested from you?

I would be grateful if could share your experience, especially that their phone number is always busy.

If they decide on lockdown do you think they will do by the end of this weekend?

If I were you I would definetely opened an offshore bank account. For insctance, in Cyprus. No taxes and safety way to save more money for yourself. It's better to do it with the help of special financial services that can track everything and solve possible problems. I was working with this https://www.advancedconsulting.cy/ company . These guys helped me to open a banck account quickly and easy. 

1450 eur for opening the cheapest one? no thanks.

I know TransferWise is good for sending and receiving money.

But since they have a borderless account I am wondering if it is good for keeping money there.

Anyone has an idea or experience with that?

Also bear in mind that it can sometimes be more difficult getting the  money out of Thailand than getting it in. So as an earlier poster said, "keep all documents and records".

 

I use Transferwise to transfer money in. Another guy I know uses Bitcoin. Each to their own.

Is transfwise borderless account good for storing money?

indeed that is a good advice.

why would you want to send a large amount of money to thailand in this hectic times?

 

I used to lived, work in the UK (I am not a British) and keep my money there. Since I left UK and not living there anymore I need to move my money somewhere. Because of Brexit many UK banks close accounts of customers who do not living there.

Not sure what that guy exactly did.

A bank account in Singapore is also another option.

Can it be open from Thailand?

Are you aware of what documents are needed to open it?

22 hours ago, OneMoreFarang said:

You can open an offshore account and transfer part of your money to that account.

I.e. Standard Bank Isle of Man

I understand it can be done from Thailand.

Do you know what documents they require to open it?

This is Thailand; unless you have a FCA, you will have to receive the money in Thai baht and then exchange it back to US$....even if you send it in US$.

Thank you now I understand. You simply say it is not possible to send USD and receive USD while not having FCA account.

This is what I really wanted to know. If it was possibile I wanted to know ways.

I assumed at the beginning that maybe there is a way to do that and someone knows how.

There is no longer a requirement to report your address every time you move or go to a different province. That was changed earlier this year.

The only time you will need to show address is when you apply for the 30 day extension. That can be a TM30 report done by a hotel and etc.

To get TV I needed to give them Hotel booking confirmation for the whole stay.

Also, my friend works in hotel and recently Immigration officers came to checked someone who was on TV if that person really lives where he stated. Not sure how it can be explained.

Your landlord has to submit a TM30 to inform immigration that you stay at his place.

You should ask him for the TM30 receipt, because if you apply for an extension you will probably be asked for it.

So you mean I do not need to do anything, s/he will do that for me?

What about if I live in one place for 30 days and decided to go somewhere for 2 days.

I do not need to do anything?

Otherwise get a Revolut account or similar and keep the US$ on the account.

I have a Revolut account.

Not sure what it has to do with USD transferred and received in Thailand.
