Eddie45 Posted December 23, 2022 Share Posted December 23, 2022 Is there a limit on how many Land Border Crossing I can make in 1 year. I will have a multi entry tourist visa and will be doing the border crossing in Laos/Cambodia. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DrJack54 Posted December 23, 2022 Share Posted December 23, 2022 (edited) No limit with a visa or reentry permit. For visa exempt entry it's 2 per calendar year. Edited December 23, 2022 by DrJack54 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eddie45 Posted December 24, 2022 Author Share Posted December 24, 2022 I understand I need to pay $30 for a visa when I arrive in Cambodia. Is this a 30 day visa? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eddie45 Posted December 25, 2022 Author Share Posted December 25, 2022 If I do a visa run to Laos instead of Cambodia, is it the same deal. $30 for 30 days? Just trying to workout all possible options. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is also 30 days. You are concentrating on wrong things. The biggest difference to border run to Laos vs Cambodia is your current location and transport preference. By way of example ...I live Bangkok and would do flight to Udon Thani and short hop to friendship bridge Nong Khai. Others perhaps long minivan to Cambodia. Not difficult to choose what best suits you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eddie45 Posted December 25, 2022 Author Share Posted December 25, 2022 Thanks for the info. I am not worried about the cost of the visa. I have a few hundred USD dollars from my last trip to Las Vegas and working out how much to take for these border runs. Interested in the length of the visa's as I might spend time in Laos and Cambodia instead of heading straight back to Thailand as I havent visited these countries before.

Well that's a personal choice re which country. Both are extremely different imo. However keep in mind that a border bounce is very different to getting to places of interest Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In my view, Laos is the place to go if you have never been to either (though Angkor is spectacular). A good start is a couple of days in Vientiane followed by Luang Prabang. (the old Royal capital). I find the more laid back vibe of Laos more comfortable than Cambodia. There is less crime, and less Chinese influence. However, it definitely does depend on the type of tourist experience you are looking for. If looking to save passport space, both Laos and Cambodia allow the use of e-visa at some land crossings and airports. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zzzzz Posted December 26, 2022 Share Posted December 26, 2022 Laos is much less westernized and MUCH better to have ur own transport> Cambodia is more Chinese, dirtier. poorer and food less appealing, BUT than again more to do, ( nightlife in PP and SR ) and Angkor wat is a MUST visit You also have visa runs to Burma, although visa is more costly an currently you need fly is no land border crossings Malaysia visa not required for most western passports for 90 day stays 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like certain immigration officials, he obviously feels that tourist visas allow people to stay long periods in Thailand which is obviously not the intended use of such visas. In particular, the loophole provided to people of actually allowing multiple visits in quick succession is something the authorities obviously never anticipated, allowing you to stay much longer than is necessary to visit a few temples, palaces and waterfalls. It is even worse than people who use visa exemptions more than once in their lives, which at least only allows a 75-day stay. He supports the actions of immigration officials at certain entry points who seek to mitigate the grave damage wreaked on Thailand by having people stay and spend money in Thailand for months on end. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most ridiculous post so far. The OP has a METV. Read up the legality of this option. He was asking about border run options. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eddie45 Posted December 28, 2022 Author Share Posted December 28, 2022 Still weighing up my options. A few years ago if you entered Malaysia with a UK passport you got a 90 day visa. Is this still the case. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You will normally be given permission to stay for 3 months on arrival. from Google . Edited December 28, 2022 by DrJack54 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
