What visa's do I need?

  • amylou

    Hi, I am planning a 3 month trip backpacking around Thailand, Laos, Vietnam and Cambodia in April. Can anyone advise me on what visas i need to sort out if I am to start in Thailand then cross border (by land) to Loas then cross to vietnam then Cambodia and finally back to Thailand. Also, am I only allowed 30 days in thailand? if so will i need to re-apply for another visa when i cross back into thailand? Many Thanks

    Where are you from?

    Thai visas are explained here: http://www.travelfish.org/feature/183

    Depending on your nationality, get your Vietnamese visa in Bangkok or Vientiane.

    Get both your Lao and Cambodian visas on arrival (at the border)
