ScotThaiOz Posted January 6, 2018 Share Posted January 6, 2018 Hello and happy new year to all, I got a one year multi entry O visa at Savannakhet in 2016 as I have a Thai wife. I would like to go there for another one as it was a fairly simple procedure then. Can anybody tell me what documents are currently required and whether proof of funds are still not required to get this visa there? Thanks for any help, ScoThaiOz.

steve187 Posted January 6, 2018 Share Posted January 6, 2018 lots of threads on here - https://www.thaivisa.com/forum/search/ no financials required, at least 2 passport photo's copies of your passport and Laos visa, signed copies of wife id, house book and marriage cert + original marriage cert, drop off morning before 11am and collect next day after 2pm.

ubonjoe Posted January 6, 2018 Share Posted January 6, 2018 No changes since the last time you got one. Marriage certificate plus a copy, copies of your wife's house book registry and ID card signed by her. No financial proof is needed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ScotThaiOz Posted January 6, 2018 Author Share Posted January 6, 2018 Thanks to you both for your prompt replies. I had looked at some threads but didn't find a recent one. I should be doing this in the next two weeks and will report back here as to how it went. All the best. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Charlatans Posted January 7, 2018 Share Posted January 7, 2018 (edited) I just arrived back from savvannakhet and despite having multiple red stamps and an overstay by 7 days I had no issue getting a Non O with the paperwork mentioned above. The embassy doesnt except Kip so make sure you have 5k in Baht and haggle with the tuks tuks outside the embassy as they will rip you off left and right.. And if you do any long bus trips do not book a sleeper unless you like spooning with some random local as the width is shoulder to shoulder and not designed for anyone over 5'9. Didnt get a wink of sleep. Edited January 7, 2018 by Charlatans 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No need for m/c taxi, Bus from Mukdahan is around 60bht and stops at every point you need apart from the Thai consulate, but the bus station is only 250m from the Thai consulate., Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Didnt get a wink of sleep. I found the height-issue to be a problem on the "Transport Company" VIP buses from MorChit to Mukdahan. They look nice/clean, but the seat "recline" function is to move the seat forward towards the seat in front, and there simply isn't room for longer legs. I have slept very well on the Sapaphan VIP bus, however, which had normal VIP seats, which recline properly. In all cases, since the seats on a "real" VIP are 3 + 1, select a seat by itself, if traveling alone. If no 3+1 seated VIP is available for some reason, then buying two tickets is the only good option. Note that "Yellow Bus" so-called "VIP" buses are *not* 3+1 on their Pattaya to Mukdahan route, so better to route through MorChit Bangkok, where real VIP buses are available.
