January 8, 201016 yr Hello all! Was wondering if anyone knew what would be best for me to do... I am here in Samui for 4 months and my initial 60 days is coming to an end. So the dreaded visa run is due. I was here before in 2004 but the rules have changed since. Apparently if I go to Burma it will only give me 15 days and If I got to Malaysia it will give me one month. (or so they said) If I go to Nathong and get my Visa Stamped will it be a stamp for 1 month or 15 days? Any responses would be great! Thanks! Saijai
January 8, 201016 yr Yes. 30 days at Immigration 1,900 Baht. 30 days arriving by air. 15 days arriving by land. A bit late but you should have got a double entry visa before you arrived.
January 8, 201016 yr I've been here a few years now and every time I think I understand the visa rules, they go and change them!!!

I do have a visa with 2 entries on it. Does that change things? Then you just have to go to the border to get your second entry activated. Thet will give you 60 days more. Call Julies visa run. 08-60666151.
January 9, 201016 yr You should get 30 days at Nathon. If I remember correctly it costs 1900 baht 1920b...and they close at 12 so go before 11 or after 1pm.... herbert for crazy visa run is opposite, but with last ferry leaving at 6 one day border run is an adventure.
January 9, 201016 yr Author You should get 30 days at Nathon. If I remember correctly it costs 1900 baht Can I get it stamped at Nathon only once? Cannot remember. Also does anyone know what the over stay fine is daily?
January 9, 201016 yr You can only do the extension once per entry. If you make an extension now you must go for a border run in 30 days. Overstay is 500 baht/day.

Gosh you never know...
January 9, 201016 yr They are probably talking about getting a visa in Malaysia. The border run you can make in one day. Juliee leaves on the first ferry and comes back to the 5.00 PM ferry.

Thanks really appreciate the info! So I can just cross the border in Burma and then they will see I have 2 entries and then they will stamp it with 60 days?

No visa into Malaysia, Visa fee for Burma. Just write down the visa number on your arrival card. Check that the stamped you for 60 days, they make mistakes all the time.
January 9, 201016 yr As said , Burma will cost you $10 to enter. Malaysia will not. There and back in a day if you wish.

However if you prefer you can extend each visa by 30 days in Nathon which would give you 6 months instead of 4.
