My gf had a passport when we went to Cambodia on a visa run last year but the travel agent that took us had said she could go using just her ID card.

Travel beyond the border provinces requires a proper travel document - in the form of a passport. Thai's still need visas to enter Cambodia proper.....and it has to go somewhere!

Yes, I'm from the UK and have a multi non imm O visa and was doing my 90 day visa run. My Thai gf wanted to come along as otherwise she would be stuck in Pattaya on her own for the day and she didn't fancy that. I paid the agent 2000 baht for me and 1000 baht for my gf as she didn't need a visa. The agent didn't know she had a passport until after we had started traveling to the border. And I've just checked in her passport, entry and exit stamps for Cambodia but no visa. She obviously didn't need one. We did the visa run to Ban Laem by the way. And we were told she could travel to Luang Prabang in Laos using her ID card, although we didn't go in the end so I can't confirm that advice was correct.

Your Thai GF could be pushing her luck travelling to Luang Prabang on a 2-night border pass. Strictly speaking it is intended for Vientiane province only, and the same for Lao people: Nong Khai province only. That's partly why the Lao hookers in Udon Thani keep getting busted, and their sisters in Nong Khai not. Edited July 16, 2007 by Trevor Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
