oldsailor35 Posted August 3, 2014 Share Posted August 3, 2014 Until today i had intended doing my 90 day Non Imm 'O' visa run to Kanchanaburi border. Now i have been told that this is not now possible. Is this correct ? Why have they moved the goal posts ( apart from usual Thai officialdom stuff ups) Can someone with knowledge please let me know if i will be wasting my time going there.

paz Posted August 3, 2014 Share Posted August 3, 2014 (edited) Myanmar has moves the goals posts. You would need a Myanmar visa, issued in Bangkok only. So Laos and Cambodia are better, visa on arrival or E-visa for the latter (selected crossings). Edited August 3, 2014 by paz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can't confirm whether or not the same applies for Mae Sot. ubonjoe will know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ubonjoe Posted August 3, 2014 Share Posted August 3, 2014 As said the problem is on the Myanmar side of the border. They no longer do border passes you must get a visa before you cross. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ubonjoe Posted August 3, 2014 Share Posted August 3, 2014 Only at the crossing in Kanchanaburi. No changes at other crossings. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
