- Forget about the Visa on Arrival to LOS if you plan on travelling privately and NOT part of a group! The Chinese immigration will not even allow you to leave the country without a valid pre-acquired visa to Thailand. i think there are many loopholes.
I went to Pattaya with a Guangzhou girl.
We travelled from Zhuhai ferry terminal to HKIA directly, then flew to Bangkok.
She did not apply for Visa, but when we were at Zhuhai immgration, she went into a small room to fill up a form.
When she crossed the immigration, she gave her passport and that form, then went thru without any problems.
i asked her what that form is for, she said the form is a confirmation of her residency status, return-air ticket, hotel accom.
the people in the small room checked all details and approve the form. the immigration officer will let her leave the country as long as the form is signed and confirmed... even if she doesn't have a pre-applied Visa.
Another reason why i say Thailand Visa is not needed:
several PRC girls that i met in Macau, they do not have Thailand visa, but they also managed to fly to Bangkok from Macau.
i remembered clearly, because one of them invited me to go with them, i didn't want to go, so i lied, and said i don't have Visa, so can't go.
all of them laughed at me and said even they themselves do not need Visas, why do i need one?
hence i always have the impression that there are many many ways to get out the country without a Visa. |
