I'm in siem reap and my visa runs out in a couple days, I'm told if I go through the poipet boarder I can come back in for a 3month visa for 40 bucks....... Which i can afford.
BUT
I'm from the UK, do I need to pay to get into Thailand or no???? It was free for me into Vietnam I'm praying its the same
You could be next.
Re: Urgent visa run to Thailand!!!!!
Why do you say that? If you are a newbie in Asia all this stuff can be confusing and there is a shedload of conflicting advice usually on the internet? Not all uk visitirs go via Thailand, so its quite possible he doesnt know about Thai visa rulesCruisemonkey wrote: βFri Feb 28, 2020 10:48 pmI can't be bothered to read three pages (so far) of replies, but you. sir, are an idiot - or a troll.HappyChappy wrote: βTue Feb 25, 2020 6:47 pm Look guys I know people hate these questions because they're common but heeeeeelp!!!

Re: Urgent visa run to Thailand!!!!!
'I' can't be bothered to invest too much energy into your comment (indefinitely), but you sir are synical and most likely very jaded. I suggest you change your lifestyle, you're wildly negative.
I had someone lying to me about the visa run and luckily for ME, (some) of the CEO crew will have your back and out you on the right path.
We all have to start somewhere buddy, big shout out to the supporters you've taken a LOT of stress off my mind.
P. S. Reminder everyone, be kind, ALWAYS pay it forward....... And be happy - HappyChappy
Re: Urgent visa run to Thailand!!!!!
Happy chappy you was not exactly clear from the start of your post, that I would say was misleading. So what of the visa, what visa is required for volunteers doing unpaid work?
Always "hope" but never "expect".
Re: Urgent visa run to Thailand!!!!!
AFAIK work is work and requires an e visa and work permit whether it is voluntary or paid unless arranged as part of sponsored visit ("pay to volunteer") programme.
E vis a and work permit is required if you work in Cambodia, even if you are paid and pay taxes abroad, somnething digital nomads ignore. i believ thailand has a special scheme for digital nomads who work in thailand but get paid elsewhere, for example if you run a web design service in London and pay uk taxes but just happen to park your but in Thailand. thinks its quite expensive though. In europe some countries do the same. You can pay a fixed mount of tax instead of the normal calculations but it is not cheap.
Re: Urgent visa run to Thailand!!!!!
Thing is their, that Thailand has a tax agreement. So basically for digital nomads you could in effect take the lesser tax amount, but at least you would not suffer the double tax.pczz wrote: βSun Mar 01, 2020 8:12 amAFAIK work is work and requires an e visa and work permit whether it is voluntary or paid unless arranged as part of sponsored visit ("pay to volunteer") programme.

Re: Urgent visa run to Thailand!!!!!
You do not get double taxed in Cambodia if you are a brit either. I asked at both tax offices. HMRC say that there is no official tax treaty with Cambodia but if you can show you paid tax here on earnings in Cambodia they will not double tax you. Cambodian tax office said pretty much the same thing but said that applies to all foreigners. They only tax you on income generated in cambodia. Cambodian citizens, however, are supposed to be taxed on all their worldwide incomeAndyKK wrote: βSun Mar 01, 2020 9:18 amThing is their, that Thailand has a tax agreement.

Yes this is so, I think at the moment the only official tax treaty is with Singapore, what was more of a concern, were pensions at one time. Has you had mentioned before about digital nomads I remember meeting 3 in Thailand (subcontracting the same company has I was). But they kept on moving in them old days, now it is all a little different.pczz wrote: βSun Mar 01, 2020 4:22 pmYou do not get double taxed in Cambodia if you are a brit either.
