Neurotic Trader Posted October 27, 2017 Share Posted October 27, 2017 Hi all, I did have a brief look through some of the posts so I apologise in advance for posting an age old question I am sure! I was looking into using Bangkok Buddy on Sunday as it seems like an easy and viable option. I have been recently employed and am waiting for my police clearance to come back before I can transfer onto my Non B visa. So just wondering if there are any better more preferred options? I have already attended Dept for Immigration and had a month granted as well. Thanks in advance, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steve187 Posted October 27, 2017 Share Posted October 27, 2017 what are you trying to achieve, an extension or a border hop for a new visa exempt entry, or to use a multi entry visa. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ubonjoe Posted October 27, 2017 Share Posted October 27, 2017 That is getting a new 30 day visa exempt entry not an extension which seems to be your only option. Bangkok Buddy goes to the Poi Pet crossing. This one goes to Ban Laem that is a friendlier crossing. http://www.thaivisaservice.com/ 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Neurotic Trader Posted October 28, 2017 Author Share Posted October 28, 2017 (edited) The only advantage is Bangkok go tomorrow. Saves me taking a day off work. I checked out thaivisaservice and from what i can see they do not do a run til November now and my current visa expires on the 5th. But it is still an option for me as well during the week. It is also three day trip. My partner is pregnant so do not wish to be away for that long unless needed. Just re read it they do a three day trip and one day Ban Laem awesome! Thanks again Steve.
