I don't know how they can justify the increase from 2,300 baht in 2019 to 5,500 now, i reckon they just trying to make up the money lost during covid. Maybe falang price, i doubt the asians doing the border run bounce will pay more than before

Wow, rarely that we see these money-schemes so publicly explained:

 

Quote

Borey San, a Cambodian clearance officer, said it was essential that applicants register with a Pattaya tour and minibus operator in advance of travel to the border. The company must then send a passport copy to the border post of choice to check that the applicant is eligible for the new permission. Unregistered individuals arriving at the frontier under their own steam could not be serviced the same day and would need to spend several days or a week in Cambodia on vacation pending a review of their application. The alternative was to remain in Thailand to risk overstay.
