Anyone Done Visa Run From Banpong

[Stretch2480]

Hi living in Banpong area near Ratchaburi. Has anyone done a visa run from here just the normal border hop. If so any info is appreciated. Closest point to cross, any visa agency info. Can drop me an email as i know you cant put contact details on the site.

Thank you.

If this town is also known as SUAN PHUNG then your nearest border-run would be here:

Otherwise, if you have residence in this aerea, you would have to deal with the Immigration-Office in Nakhon Pathom for all Immigration-Matters and NOT the one in Bangkok.

The other visa-run option is always Poipet / Cambodia via Bangkok. More kilometers for sure, but probably not more time-consuming than the Myanmar option outlined above. (especially if you go with a visa-shop out of Bangkok.)

BTW: If we are talking the same Banpong / Suan Phung we are practically neighbours. I live near Chat Pa Way.

Cheers.

Hi my Filipino wife's mum has been staying with us on a 60-day tourist visa, extended for 30 more days and she now has to leave by 8 April. We would like to have her stay for another 30-60 days, as my 2 kids just arrived on Dependents Visa and I want her to spend some time with them. So we probably should make a visa run to get another 60-day Toursist visa. We live in BKK, near the main Immigration Office. I would appreciate any advice on what is the best way to do it at the lowest reasobnable cost. can any one recommend a visa run agent we can use (please PM/message me)? what is the cost like and how many days would it take (staying outside of Thailand)?

Also would the agent be able to take care of my mum-in-law to the point I need not accompnay her and she can go alone (as I have to go to work and would be good if not have to take leave)?

If we jsut do a border run and she comes back on a 15-day visa exempt pass (overland trip), can we go and extend by 15days or so at the BKK main immigratiion office?

Appreciate any help provided

Yes, I must have mixed up Ban Pong with Ban Bung. By the way; If you live between Ban Bung and Chat Pa Way we are practically neighbours. I live on Soi 8 (3 Km out of Chat Pa Way). I can be found at the "L'Amour Cafe" (next to Tesco) almost daily around 10 AM. Cheers.
