kartoshka Posted December 26, 2019 Share Posted December 26, 2019 (edited) ....to get a new kasikorn card. This would take 5 minutes. I don't want to stay in Thailand. I'm in Cambodia. Is there a way to obtain a new kasikorn card without hassle of entering Thailand with visa exemp? Maybe somehow at the borders they allow to wander semi-freely, without going through the immigration, as long as you enter and leave within a short period of time? I'd enter, get my new card at a bank and leave. I want all to be legal. Edited December 26, 2019 by kartoshka 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post blackcab Posted December 26, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted December 26, 2019 Would your home country allow someone to wander into your country and completely bypass immigration procedures because they said they wanted to go to the bank? I don't think so. Thailand is no different. You need the correct visa to enter, or you can enter as visa exempt if this category applies to you. Before you do this, find out if your bank card can be issued by any branch of your bank. Some banks require you to obtain a new card from the branch where you first opened your account. 4 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peterw42 Posted December 26, 2019 Share Posted December 26, 2019 There is a Kasikorn bank in PP, I imagine they could help with a new card. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There would only be a remote possibility of this being achievable within such a short space of time if there were a Kasikorn branch slap bang next to a Cambodian border post on the Thai side. As far as I am aware this isn't the case at any such border post. So what's the big deal about getting your passport stamped for 30 days at the Cambodian/Thai border in your case, then?

Popular Post Don Mega Posted December 26, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted December 26, 2019 It will take longer than 5 minutes so might as well make a day/night of it. If you have changed passport since you opened the account be sure to take the old passport with you !! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How does that matter? 5 or 10 or 15? So what? Whatever! 2 minutes ago, Don Mega said: If you have changed passport since you opened the account be sure to take the old passport with you !! First of all, I'm not asking about that. Secondly, that's wrong - I got a new card with a new passport, without the old one.

Your the one claiming it will only take 5 minutes, sorry for correcting you but good to hear the passport number they have on hand is the one you carry with you.... was just another peice of freindly advice as it can be a pain othrwise.

Well that isn't the same as a land border crossing is it! Did you use a bank on the international side? Because the OP also doesn't want to clear immigration.
