Hi,

i've got an invitation letter from Chiang Mai University certifying that i'll join their volunteer program. it's real, no fake.

i can't find anything on the boards - so, you have any idea where to go in region? which consulate works fine? any experiences or advice?

Thanks na khrap :-)

With a letter from the University Vientiane should be fine. Anyway, i suspect the university can tell you.

Assuming you are currently in Chiang Mai I would first apply for a work permit and take the WP3 form along to the consulate when you apply for the visa. This might be very helpful in getting the visa.

1) Vientiane just some 2 weeks ago rejected renewal of Tourist Visa. so i feel a bit reluctant to go there. i'm wondering about Singapore or KL, Penang?

2) this specific volunteer-project of CMU had people coming into Thailand from overseas on visa-exempt-stamp. so they're quite confident; i'm not ;-)

3) Mario, the wp is an excellent idea! i'll meet CMU-staff tomorrow and i'll discuss it with them.

thanks for your time to comment na :-)
