October 30, 20169 yr Hi there. Does anyone know if its possible to do a quick in/out at the Phu Nam Ron border close to Kanchanaburi? I mean doing so without any type of visa in order to get 15 or 30 days? Someone mentioed you can only use this border with a Thai visa, but he wasnt totaly sure. Seems strange they would allow Ferangs to go over and back in only if they have a visa, i mean its either open to Ferangs or it isnt, surely? If anyone knows it would be a massive help. Its a long way to drive there from Hua Hin only to get turned away :)
October 30, 20169 yr Author Thanks Steve, not trying to wind you up or anything but are you absolutley sure?
October 31, 20169 yr 100% sure no border bounces, and as far as i am aware no border crossings for foreign passport holders, even with visa, ( but only 98% sure on that one)
November 1, 20169 yr With a visa is allowed now, once again by the way. Please read the threads about this in the Visa Section of this forum. Win
November 1, 20169 yr Author Ok, thanks to both of you. Looks like I have a long drive down to Rayong then :)

November 15, 20169 yr Hi, if you are looking at a Visa Run at Phu Nam Rom, then yes, you can do it. But if you are looking into entering Myanmar through this border, you will need a proper Myanmar visa.

The Myanmar visa requirement, when doing a visa hop, was very short lived, maybe only a few days, and seems to have come about due to a spat over the collection and sharing of border of fees. I have a multi non-I and and did my most recent hop in September. A friend did his last month. If you want to go further and stay in Myanmar for a while then you will need their visa.
November 17, 20169 yr When did this change?, out/in without a visa was stopped a while ago. I should clarify, I meant with a Thai visa, not just doing a border out/in to get another 30/15 days.

December 23, 20169 yr Any updates on this ? Will be going soon so expecting that nothing has changed recently.
