a_classic_cigar Posted January 30, 2009 Share Posted January 30, 2009 Can anyone suggest an alternative to Penang a bit cheaper / closer place to do a Visa run (I am in BKK ) (re applying for Marriage Visa - which I already have), but was only valide for 3 months (issued in Penang). Penang is getting a bit pricey and heard rumours of other places to do the process. And and all advice greatly appreciated! Chris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bjhabal Posted January 30, 2009 Share Posted January 30, 2009 The other alternative (for cheaper/closer) is only Vientiane. Bishop Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You should be able to get a multiple entry in Penang or KL but you have to show some money in a Thai bank. In Penang all good reports have been from those using an agent Have you considered getting a 1 year extension at immigration. If you can show income of 40,000 baht per month income or 400,000 in a Thai bank accounrt for 60 days you can get it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Penang is as mentioned easy with the agent - who is very quick... I want to go for the 1 year extention, but until I can get my contract signed sealed and delivered...no... (I am a Hotelier and as many know - the economy is still suffering..) Does anyone have the link to the thread for details on Vientiane?
