Bkk Ranong Visa Runs.

[Mosha]

Just to let folks know. Thai Air Asia are flying BKK-UNN-BKK 3 days a week. I think about 2000 Baht return, starting mid December I think.

Yeah, but you must stay overnight in Ranong as the AA flight gets in at 4.15pm and leaves at 4.45pm, leaving it an impossibility to do a visa run and return on the same day.

However, I have found the Ranong Imm. staff to be very friendly and helpful.

Is possible to make a one day visa run from Ranong to Myanmar by boat,or there are problems to do that for the Myanmar situation?Thank's Ponn

So far, all is quiet and OK in Ranong/Burma.

You can easily do a visa run to Burma by boat from Ranong in 1 - 1.5 hours all in. But what I am emphasising is that if you fly down to Ranong from BKK, you CANNOT do a visa run that day. Immigration closes at 5pm. OK, you may get stamped out, but you will not get stamped back in until the next day.
