Border Run/Visa Ext. for Laos National from Pattaya on 21.9.

[moonseeker]

Dear all:

A friend (Laos) needs to get an extension, renewal of his 30 days (by land) on or before 21.9.2015 of min. 7 days, but whenever possible 15 days or 30 days. I am not familiar with the situation right now. Any help from an expert. Could possibly also do a run/trip from Cha-am, where we stay after the 21.9.. Visa/Stamp expires on 25.9.

Thank you all very much! MS>

Until things get sorted out at the borders the best option would be a crossing to Laos with an overnight stay from info I have seen.

They will get a 30 day visa exempt entry.

Thank you Ubonjoe.

You think any chance of a trip to border Kanchanburi/Burma from Cha-am, as will be there the week before visa expires? Will try find on google, too. Thank you again. MS>

Kanchanaburi is closed for all out/in crossings, That is why I suggested Laos.

My Laos friends had to return to Laos, spend a night there, and then come back (via Chong Mek) the next day. They had no issues re-entering, despite having passports full of monthly in-out stamps.

Fingers crossed it will be back to normal next month.
