Re: Convert EB visa to Tourist (or similar) visa
@PSD-Kiwi – Okay, a different agent it is.
Not planning on returning, but will have to pay up if I do.
Thanks!

Re: Convert EB visa to Tourist (or similar) visa
@PSD-Kiwi – thanks! This is starting to look better. I will do as you suggest. Just one thing: I checked receipts from my visa agent for previous years. They included, ‘company document’ $150 + work permit $230 (total $380). From this, I guess you can see how I went about this. So, question is – whe...

Re: Convert EB visa to Tourist (or similar) visa
My work permit and EB visa are not synched. My work permit has already expired (31 December 2021) and my EB visa expires next month. So, if I extended my EB visa, for 3 months say, I would also need to renew my work permit. That would mean @ $150 for my work permit plus whatever it costs for a 3-mon...

Convert EB visa to Tourist (or similar) visa
Hello, I’ve had two one-year EB visas (with work permit). The second of which will soon expire. I don’t wish renew my EB visa, but I am hoping I can convert it to another type of visa, such as a tourist visa. I’ll be leaving Cambodia in the next 3-6 months so this is the approximate period I would n...

Re: Visa run to Thailand to change T visa to E visa, plus Cambodian bank account
Thank you for your input, everyone. There may be another option, but I don’t know if it will work. My main objective is to get back to Vietnam, but if I can’t do this, I need a base in Cambodia, and that means I’ll need the 6-month EG visa so I can open a bank account here in Cambodia. So I'm thinki...

Re: Visa run to Thailand to change T visa to E visa, plus Cambodian bank account
Thank you for your input, Anapol. Everyone I’ve spoken to, from the immigration officer who kicked me out of Vietnam (who was uncharacteristically helpful for a VN immigration officer), to travel agents – they’ve all pulled pained expressions when I’ve shared my plans to do things via land border cr...

Re: Visa run to Thailand to change T visa to E visa, plus Cambodian bank account
Thanks, Duncan. It would be nice to see a bit of KL but I’m in a tight spot. I’ve lived in Vietnam for the past 13 years but some issues with my VN visa meant I had to get out quickly. So I’m here in Cambodia on a limited budget until I can open a bank account. I need to transfer funds bank to bank ...

Re: Visa run to Thailand to change T visa to E visa, plus Cambodian bank account
Thank you for your considered reply, PSD-Kiwi. OK, I’ll get a return to Kuala Lumpur with perhaps 12 hours before my return flight, in case my outbound flight is delayed. Guess I can hang out at the airport. Sure, my first six-month visa needs to EG, not EB. Regards booking the flight to KL: I don’t...

Visa run to Thailand to change T visa to E visa, plus Cambodian bank account
Hello, I’m a Brit who arrived in Phnom Penh by bus via Ho Chi Minh. When I gave the bus drivers assistant my passport and $35, I was expecting a 30-day E Ordinary Business visa. But when returned I had a 30-day tourist visa. I’ve been told I can’t convert my T visa to an E visa, so I’ll have to exit...
