Martouf Posted April 4, 2018 Share Posted April 4, 2018 Has anything changed in Vientiane recently ie required documentation. I am asking only because a friend was there this morning getting a non-o and he has just said many teachers were being refused non-b visas and it was getting heated Sent from my iPhone using Thailand Forum - Thaivisa mobile app Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ubonjoe Posted April 4, 2018 Share Posted April 4, 2018 I have not heard of any changes. Perhaps they did not have a police clearance certificate. List of requirements are here. http://vientiane.thaiembassy.org/upload/pdf/Visa/Non-B teacher.pdf 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Martouf Posted April 4, 2018 Author Share Posted April 4, 2018 I thought the same - but he didn’t think it was about the police clearance. I have asked him to try and find out why - if he does, I’ll post the reason - but it’s concerning that it was a lot of teachers being refused not just 1 or. 2Sent from my iPhone using Thaivisa Connect Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OP, if you know somebody personally, please ask why they had been refused. There can be many reasons. Not paid tax last year, missing documents, etc. Sorry, OP< we've posted at the same time.

RHerberth Posted April 5, 2018 Share Posted April 5, 2018 Do you have to make a border run every 3 month with an Non-B (teaching) visa? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it's a one year multi entry yes you do need to out/in every 90 days. If it was a single 90 day B visa and has been converted to an extension of stay for 1 year then either you or the school will have have to do 90 day reports at your local Imm' office where the conversion was done.

No unless you were able to get a multiple entry non-b visa (not available within the region). Most people apply for a one year extension of stay based upon teaching at a immigration office which only requires reports of staying longer than 90 days in the country.

RHerberth Posted April 6, 2018 Share Posted April 6, 2018 Can i get problems at the border with a multiple Non-B but no workpermit? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimcarr65 Posted April 6, 2018 Share Posted April 6, 2018 It has already been stated but I was refused last year because I did not have the police clearance and had to go back to Bangkok and get one. Remember jai yen yen and this is Thailand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not paid tax last year, There has never been a requirement to show a tax receipt to apply for a visa - anywhere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
