Hello,

 

We are heading back to the UK soon but need to spend some time in Bangkok first but might need a couple of months there, so a visa is necessary.

 

So anyway, given the above, we went to Vientiane to get her a Thai visa, but like alot of other people we met, we found out you now need an appointment which can take 2 weeks + to get.

 

So we have booked the nearest appointment for just over 2 weeks away and crossed into Vietnam at the Cau Treo border as her days in Laos were coming to an end. We are now in Vinh.

 

So my questions ;

 

How easy is it to get a Thai visa in Vietnam?

(SEA citizen)

Say Hanoi for example?

We are currently in Vinh of all places.

Do you have to also book an appointment for the Hanoi Thai consulate?

Would they require her to show proof of funds at the Thai consulate in Hanoi?

 

Would cancelling the appointment in Vientiane cause a problem for a Thai visa application in Hanoi?

 

Just thinking about our options given that we are also waiting for a meeting date in Bangkok.

 

Cheers

Also, do they need an onward ticket, or is that not important at the Thai embassy in Hanoi?

 

We will be flying out of BKK, but we cannot say when right now, so cannot buy a flight as yet.

 

Cheers

No appointment is needed in Hanoi.

A ticket out of he country is required. See: http://www.thaiembassy.org/hanoi/th/services/1761/25691-Tourist-Visa.html

Hanoi would not know anything about the appointment in Vientiane.
