What Thai embassies issue tourist visas for people making visa runs?
Hi. I live in Bangkok as a tourist. I make 3 visa-exempt visa runs and then get a visa at Vientane, Laos for a 60 day tourist visa and then another 60 day tourist visa to get around the 6 month rule. But I want to move outside of Bangkok to get away from the city pollution and also to see other places.
I’m interested in Phuket and other areas. But is there a Royal Thai embassy besides the one in Laos where I can conveniently cross the border and get a tourist visa? What about Malaysia and Myanmar? What about Cambodia? I haven’t been in Thailand long enough to be familiar with it. I don’t want to have to go back to my home country to apply for a tourist visa, so I’m asking.
On a related note, is there one place in Thailand where it’s possible to make visa runs (both visa-exempt stamps and tourist visas) on your own without a visa run service? Like takin the train to the border/embassy?
you can go down to KL Malaysia from Phuket.
