Wouldn't be surprised to see more US boots on the ground. IS need to be eradicated, and quickly. Still don't understand why the US took action (air strikes) in Kurdistan/Iraq and not Syria.
Iraq cabinet will be formed shortly. Let's see how the KRG reacts.

The Italian filled bread rolls you can purchase in 'Subway', does anyone know a bakery in Thailand where I can obtain these Italian bread rolls?

so on that logic a non O RETIREMENT visa (which is still available for over 65's and state pension) is just in reality a tourist visa as you would be expected to fly out etc out of thailand every 89 daysblink.png ...great retirement..living out of a suitcase........ I am talking about a NEW issue visa not going for extensions etc

Living out of a suitcase due to visa runs every 90 days?

a non-o visa isnt a retirement visa.
Of course it's not. -

You can do by land or air, that is up to you. Kl will be fine.
Appreciated Mario. -
I'd also mention that as I reside in Rangsit, Don Mueang Int'l airport is close by.
-
My first 90 day 'visa run' will be due shortly (Non-Imm O Visa multiple).
My question is, am I able to do a same day round trip to KL? Price for my intended departure with AA isB2,200 excluding add-ons.

If you want to learn a new language properly the alphabet is the first thing you ought to learn.
Not necessarily.
Thai Language schools have different teaching methods.

And yet again, another topic on the proposed visa situation, albeit a differing subject, which again is purely speculation apart from comments on visa experiences past and present.
134 posts and counting. Unbelievable.

Those people that abuse the system using multiple 30 day non-exempt and single/double/triple tourist visas although their original intention is to stay much longer in Thailand.

You're correct CC although I don't believe they're called 'marriage'

Always submit the correct documents whether they are all required or not.
Things can change in an instant so be prepared.
Enjoy.
I have some difficulty understanding this. A copy of my dentist's last bill would also be "a correct document", but for a visa application I should think that a correct document is a document that the consulate has indicated to be required for this application. As you said, "things can change in an instant" and I would not call it a bad idea to take along some extra documents that are not listed as a requirement on the consulate's website or were not asked for with my previous application, but I would hand them over only if requested.
You see, the risk is that if I submit more documents than officially required, a consulate may think it is a good idea to request these additional documents also of subsequent applicants, then somebody else again submits some other additional documents, and so forth, and before I know it I have to hire a lorry -- exaggerating a bit -- to carry all required documents.

Hi Maestro
Perhaps this wording is more apt.
Always submit the REQUIRED documentation for the type of visa you are applying for although in the case of a Non-Imm O visa multiple from Savannakhet, there is currently no requirement to submit 'proof of funds, but always be prepared.
You can now visit your dentist 'pain free'

Correct LB. I attended the Thai consulate Savan on Tuesday and received a non-imm O multiple visa at 1530hrs the same day.
Along with the relevant documents, I also included proof of funds which was not required and therefore returned to me.
How long will this continue? Only time will tell.

Savannakhet is handling "financial-requirements" in a very liberal way. The "big immigration-office" in BKK most likely is aware of this practice that it is not 100% in accordance with the intent of the law.
So, Savannakhet is a "Rouge-Outpost", If Savannakhet is brought into line eventually, where is the next Savannakhet? As far as I can see: There is none !
For those that it concerns: Prepare yourself !
In other words, final para, have in your possession proof of funds if asked for.

Lao visa processing is straightforward. Exit Thailand and enter Lao. Visa fee is either B1,500 or $35 new notes which works out cheaper. Nothing more to pay although I've heard from other posters that a B40 fee is levied for the Lao visa stamp.

My post from 09 July
Have just returned from Savannakhet where I received a Non-Imm O visa multiple.
For those that are unaware, it's now same day service. I left Mo Chit Monday evening and arrived Savan Tuesday morning where I applied for visa at Thai Cons and collected same day at 1530hrs. Many buses to Mukdahan to BKK arriving here at 0600hrs this morning.
Recommended VIP bus which leaves Mo Chit at 2030hrs every day and operated by Sahaphanroied Co.Ltd. 32 seater with plenty of leg room costing only B620. The VIP buses operatated by Transport Co Ltd which cost B899 are aimed at the Farang and are no different to the ones costing B620, just fewer seats.
Documents submitted
1. Khor Ror 2 in lieu of original marriage cert
2. Copies of: Marriage Cert, translation of, proof of finance, my passport, wife's ID card, house book and all signed together with B5,000.
Enjoy. END
There are many buses that leave Mo Chit, two in the morning around 0800hrs and several in the evening. The evening bus is the one you want to catch as they arrive in Mukdahan early morning (expect the buses that stop everywhere and cost around B500). When you arrive, proceed to the front of the terminal building and locate the window for Int'l bus departures, Mukdahan to Savannakhet. Services start at 07.30hrs and cost B50 one way.
When you arrive at Savan Bus terminal get a tuk tuk for approx B40 to the Thai embassy. Gates open around 0900 hrs. Submit your application and collect passport same day at 03.30hrs. Return travel the same although you might have to wait sometime in Mukdahan BS for an evening departure unless you plan to extend your stay in the sleepy town of Savannakhet.

PS There is currently no requirement for proof of funds in Savannakhet

I can't abide these folks who go armed with every doc under the sun even though it's not required and they know it's not required.
Look at me everyone, I've got everything here...
As I've mentioned previously, things can change in an instant. Carry all relevant documentation and be prepared to handover to the consulate guy that one document he asks for that's not included in the application package.
Unless of course you are prepared for another round trip to Savan or wherever.
Remember, not everyone reads ThaiVisa and therefore they go armed with all the necessary docs to submit to a Thai Embassy/Consulate of their choosing.

After further consideration, I agree with the above.
Only show documentation that is necessary at that time, although be prepared if asked for further docs.

Don't ever submit a document that is not required your only cutting the next guys throat.
Always submit the correct documents whether they are all required or not.

I asked one of the consulate staff whether the one day service was permanent or temporary and he confirmed permanent although we will wait and see.
As far as bus travel is concerned, obviously the applicant would only book bus one way travel. Ample time in Mukdahan to book a return.
Two nights on the bus, as in my case or, two nights on the bus and and one night in the sleepy town of Savannakhet, if indeed it changes back to two day visa service.
Where is the Sahaphanroied Co.Ltd ticket booth at Mor chit bus station. i couldn't find it, so went with the other company?
I booked thru Thai Ticket Major for the onward journey but on the return journey I booked at Mukdahan bus terminal situated at the front of the building, the left window.

There have been a number of changes since i went last year:
1) as mentioned already, pick up is on the same day at 3.30pm.
2) if you are planning to take U.S dollars for your laos entry visa, you are probably wasting your time, because they are using the 'old bills' excuse to make you pay in baht, because they make more money.
3) they are no longer using the tannoy to call numbers when pick-up, so make sure you are at the front, because the queue was massive. this could be because locals are now required to get visas/permits.
4) previously at border checkpoints, the locals would fill in forms and crossing with just id cards, but this time everybody seemed to have passports. on the way back at lao immigration, the immigration officer got very irate and banging the desk, and shouting 'visa, visa'. many locals in the queue looked puzzled and getting out 200 baht to give to the officer. i couldn't understand what was going on, but the crackdown seems to be affecting the locals as well as westerners.
Ref you paras
1. Confirmed by consular staff although that could change.
2. I paid in dollars whether they were old or new, that I don't know, but were accepted.
3. Correct. Regardless of what ticket number you have, mine was 79, a Canadian guy whom I was talking to was 200+, it was a mad scramble to the visa No 2 window and then to queue to be told, in a single file
4. I travelled on my own and all I had to pay was the Lao visa fee. There was no other fee involved as like previously stated, B40 for the stamp.

DM International check in
in Don Mueang Airport Forum
Posted
Flying to KL next week and have already checked in on-line and printed boarding pass.
I have no luggage to check in.
When I arrive at DM airport, can I proceed straight to immigration?
