Non Imm B From Cambodia

[squarefred]

hi

im fed up with border runs and i want to get a one year non imm b visa from cambodia, laos or vietnam as its a lot cheaper than going all the way back to england to get one.

i dont have a degree so i cant get a work permit.

how easy/hard is it to get a year long non imm b from a thai embassy in a neighbouring country?

what sort of paperwork would i need?

id appreciate any advice.

Easy, for non-B in SEA you need a workpermit to start with here is the rest.

Without a work permit you cannot get a one year non B in the SE Asia Region.

Even with a work permit and all the correct company papers, KL is the only place reliably issuing one year non Bs at the moment.

By the way, you don't need a degree for a work permit - just suitable qualifications.
