my non-b runs out on june 16. ive got a contract until october but i cant get a work permit. i need to do a border run. can anyone recommend me a good company? how much would it cost and how long before my visa runs out would i have to do it?
are there any rules regarding how many times you can do it? i heard whispers about them clamping down.

type cambodia visa run, or jacks golf into the search function. Or the classifieds of the BKK Post.

If you have a contract, you should be able to get the work permit extended up to the date of the end of the contract. With that you should be able to get the visa extended until the end of the work permit.

Are you sure you need the border run?

Seems he does not have the WP hence the visa run.

I know it costs 2500 baht for the total run including visas and free lunch etc...leave on nut at 7 am and get back about 3 pm.

Will have to pm me for details though

thought you could have 2 consecutive non-Bs

btw unless otherwise stated I tend to assume people are in BKK - if you're in the South then can tell you a bit more - Malaysia's never a problem, me I love the place
