Changnoi2 Posted April 17, 2010 Share Posted April 17, 2010 My non O expired, so I did a run a few days before to get another another 3 months. Can I get some advice as to what I can do next. Ive been told I can go to Lao for another Visa, but I need evidence of a flight home to get back into the country. I have a British Passport. Thank you for your help.

lopburi3 Posted April 17, 2010 Share Posted April 17, 2010 You can only obtain tourist visas and you do not need proof of any flight to return to Thailand at a land crossing. The closest place to issue non immigrant O with copy of Thai ID card for that reason would be Perth (and only Perth) in Oz. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Changnoi2 Posted April 17, 2010 Author Share Posted April 17, 2010 So its a trip to Lao to get a 60 day tourist visa? And is that my time up? Cheers for the info mate Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lopburi3 Posted April 17, 2010 Share Posted April 17, 2010 You can get more than once if you want - and in Vientiane you can usually get a two entry tourist visa which with 30 day extensions of stay could cover almost six months. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SlumdogMillionaire Posted April 17, 2010 Share Posted April 17, 2010 Laos (vientiane) is good for tourist visas with no proof of flight needed. Overnight bus to Laos, drop your passport in at the Embassy in the morning Pick it up the following day in the afternoon. I think they have extended the free period also, if so then free visa! That will give you 60 days in Thailand and you then can extend after that for 30 days at immigration for 1900 Baht, depending how long you plan to stay. I was on non O and have done as mentioned above when the non ended, British Passport holder also. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mario2008 Posted April 17, 2010 Share Posted April 17, 2010 Once married you will have more options. You could otherwise study in Thailand, any course will do. As long as the school is recognised and you sudy at least 4 hours a week on average. (Do inquire if the school can help you with the ED-visa).

SlumdogMillionaire Posted April 17, 2010 Share Posted April 17, 2010 If you do plan on staying longer then as Lopburi mentioned go for double entry. You can keep doing this continuosly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
