thanks for that Chuck. I hear that getting a visa in Laos is a bit of a cattle market affair i.e. long queues, rude officials and bribes being the expected thing. Never tried Cambodia. Do you get a 3 months visa at these places and if so how long do you need to stay to finish the business? Of the 2 which would you recommend at the present time?

Many thanks for your comments gents but the FEC's are not a concern nor is my eligibility for the visa (I have been going to Kota Baru for the 3 months visa for several years when I was living in Phuket). Now I am living in Chiang Mai and Yangon is much near (and cheaper!) all I was wondering was, had anyone had been issued a 3 months visa and what difficulties, if any, had been encountered.

I'm going to Yangon for a week's visit and would like to get a 3 months Thai visa from the embassy in Yangon. Anyone had any experience with this? Details would be appreciated.
