There is no consulate in Poipet (Aranyaprathet) and the one in Phnom Pehn doesn't like to serve farangs, only Cambodians. You can only get a 30 day stamp at Poipet, provided you haven't already had 3 of those in the last 3 months. Vientiane is your best bet for a tourist visa, and I think you can get a double there.

Provided you haven't had more than 90 days in the 180 day period on visa exempt stamps.

pickel · 19-08-2008, 10:55 PM

^Yes, thats it.

Deck Ape · 24-08-2008, 02:53 PM

Thanks for the info, guys. Just finishing up my first 30 day permission to stay. I need to stay in Thailand 60 more days. One trip to Ventianne better than two to Poipet.
Apply for Tourist visa in Ventianne, wait overnight and pick up the next morning?

Sounds about right, not sure of their hours though.

dirtydog · 24-08-2008, 03:55 PM

Apply at Vientiane in the morning before 12, pick up the next day after 1pm, expect long queues so get there early.

I've nearly finished my three 30 day stamps but I'm going back to the UK for a few weeks. Is it true I can get a non imm o in Hull no questions asked just your passport and a 100 quid? If not can I get a tourist visa in the UK that will allow me back in?? I need to get some sraight info on this otherwise if I have to stay out for three months I'll have alot more S**t to sort out. Any advise on this would be really appreciated. Thanks in advance

Single only from what I heard. Nearest place for multis is Ganzhaou (sp) in Chinkystan (again, from what I've been told).

I think it might be a bit more than that but it's certainly quick and easy.

Was £95 and 10 minutes and an unpaid parking ticket four years ago.

Nope.

It's 225 $AUS as well. Or it was in Sept 2004.

EmperorTud · 24-08-2008, 11:54 PM

^ still is A$225

Jesus Jones · 24-08-2008, 11:57 PM

Oh bugger, now i'm really confused.

Where do i stand then.

I'm currently on my second 30 as my 1 year non O has expired. This is because my employer didn't pull his finger out of his arse when he was supposed to.

Four months on my employer has now provided me with all the correct documents for me to apply for my B type. However I was told that i have to have a valid visa which i then need to change to the B. I was preparing next month to obtain a tourist, so that i could then upgrade to the B. Does this now leave me up the shit creak, or could i take the documentation from my employer to obtain the tourist, explaining i need this to change to the B.

Seems a catch 22 position to me.

onuk · 01-09-2008, 03:02 PM

Is it still possible to get a double entry Touristvisa in vientiane.
I have already a doubleentry from vientane.
How is the Visa situation in Vientiane in the moment??

good2bhappy · 20-09-2008, 10:39 AM

if I want a 30 day entry from Poi Pet do I need an ongoing ticket?
Does anyone know if I pay the Cambodian Immigration police whether I don't need to buy one.
I need to cross on a friday so dont want to go to Penang for 3 extra days and was thinking a 30 day crossing would be a lot cheaper and go to the UK 4 weeks latter.
Any advice?
