Border Crossing To Renew Visa.

[martyboy]

Anyone have first hand experience? I will be in Thailand for three months with a 90 day non-imm. 'O' visa. I might want to stay for another month and I understand if I exit the country by air at the end of the 90 days I can re-enter with a one month permitted enty stamp. I could get a mult-entry 'O' visa and renew that for a further 90 days but one month extra will be sufficient.

I will be near Phuket and can fly from there to Kuala Lumpur quite cheaply. Main question - Can I enter KL without having to apply for a Malaysian visa? i.e. walk in with a 'permitted entry' stamp similar to Thailand and then catch the next flight back to Phuket (hopefully with not too long wait) Or are their complications?

Thanks.

Your previous postings indicate you are from the UK. You can do border hop to neighbouring country and you will get 30 day 'visa exempt' permission to stay on re-entry into the Kingdom.

For KL you will not need a visa. In fact, there are no immigration forms to complete; passport is ‘swiped’ by immigration on arrival and entry stamp put in passport.

As you fail to provide a nationality (all important for visa) can not be sure but if UK/OZ/US and many others a return flight will provide a 30 day visa exempt stamp and for Malaysia no visa is required.
