4evermaat Posted October 31, 2015 Share Posted October 31, 2015 I wanted to know if the Sadao/Danok thai border was requesting to show any cash or any tips for any passport holders that had non-immigrant visas (not tourist or visa exempt). Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
schondie Posted October 31, 2015 Share Posted October 31, 2015 Better going to Padang Besar. There was a thread about this a few days ago but I can't find it. Sadao can be a pain compared to Padang Besar. There's less people and a more relaxed attitude. 100 baht gets you a motorbike taxi to the Malaysian side, back to the Thai side and to the minibus station in the centre of town if you need it.

4evermaat Posted November 17, 2015 Author Share Posted November 17, 2015 (edited) Turns out a friend of mine just got a multiple non-o yesterday from Penang consulate (married to thai) following my advice. He ended up catching a minivan service that picks you up at the embassy to Hat Yai (40 RM, 14:30 or 15:00; talk to Daniel, the guy who does photocopies/passport photos in a van outside the consulate to get a ticket). They went through Sadao checkpoint and he said he had no problems at all. Only asked where he was staying. He was previously on a single entry non-o with a 1 year extension. No 20k baht requested to be shown or any additional money in the [uSA] passport. . Not much different than when I went through Sadao about 1.5 years ago.
