With fighting on the Cambodian border are the checkpoints there open or not at the moment for visa runs? Thanks for confirmation one way or another.

No and yes, the border checkpoints near the conflict area are closed, others further away are open.

See: http://www.thaivisa.com/forum/topic/440987-thai-cambodia-border-close-indefinitely-as-conflicts-continue/

in our news section.

Chong Chom Boarder crossing on the 214 highway about 75 KM south of Surin was reopened the other day.

Very good idea, the way they are going things could change any time.

Ok thanks for that, basically keep your eyes peeled and phone before you go.

What's the situation at Hat Lek?

I'm currently in Kho Chang and will before returning to Bangkok this Sunday try to do a visa run. Any information is more than welcome.

When I don't get any info here, I'll try to connect on internet and report on sunday evening when i'm back in Bangkok, so I can contribute to this forum too
