Koh Kong Visa Run

[panda98]

I must go out thailand and come back to use 2nd tourist visa,

I will go to nongkai or Koh kong,

If I go to koh kong, Can I get combodia visa at border?

Can I go and back soon without problem? or must I stay one night in combodia?

How many hours is it from bangkok to the border by bus?

Are there many visa run people in koh kong same as Poipet?

Thanks and best regards!

eh up panda, few questions on here,

koh kong, is prob 4/5 hours drive by car from bangkok, and yes you can get a visa at the border, and you can return the same day, they are border run people there but has dwindled with the ban laem border opening as most go there now.

This company goes from bangkok, ive never been with them but they seem to get a good write up on here,

if you want to go to koh kong on your own, maybe get bus to trat, stay overnight, one hour and 20 mins from border, so up early and bus to border for 9am say then back trat and bus up to bangkok, or you could stay just over border in cambodia.

just a quickie, dont forget look at your visa and the "enter before date" means just that, so if it says 20th you must reenter on 19th or youll only get 30 days.

I haven't been for a while, but it is a quiet border crossing.

Had Lek is the name on the Thai side.

You should be able to buy the visa at the Cambodian border.

There is no compulsion to stay one night, but if you do not, then the Cambodians

will want a few extra baht for stamping you back out on the same day.

There is no direct bus.

You will need the bus to Trat, getting off just before the town, by route 318,

where you can get a Song Thaew, pickup truck bus to the border,

which is another 100km journey.

Not a trip for the faint hearted, or non Thai speaker.

There are some pleasant and unspoiled beaches near the border.

How many hours is it from bangkok to ban laem by bus?

[panda98]

Can they really go to aran at 5am and return bangkok at 13pm?

meaning only 7 hours trip?

Normally how many hours is it from bangkok to aran by mini ban or bus?

I heared the combodia embassy location was changed, so where is it now?
