Jimbo Posted December 13, 2011 Share Posted December 13, 2011 No multiple entry Non O in Vientiane. You can only get a single there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hanuman1 Posted December 13, 2011 Share Posted December 13, 2011 Not sure if this is the right thread for this, but I just got back from Vientiane where for the past several years I've been doing the 90-day visa trips for a Non-O based on having a Thai son. On this last occasion two things were different from all the other times I've been. Firstly, on top of the birth certificate, house registration (tabien baan) and passport photocopies, which have always been enough for them in the past, they now also want a copy of the mother's Thai ID card. I asked if this was a new rule, and was told 'Old rule, new boss', so maybe this is just confined to Vientiane. Secondly, when picking up the passport the next day, the 'Remarks' section on the actual visa sticker had been used. It said in handwritten Thai the purpose of the visa (staying with family). So I don't know if this is just an isolated case of a new Consul dotting the i's and crossing the t's or if it's part of a wider effort to eventually crack down on unlimited 90-day visa running. Probably not worth worrying yet though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
poanoi Posted December 13, 2011 Share Posted December 13, 2011 I've never even heard of Savanakhet before, so to clarify: It is a city at the western border of Laos, and has a Thai Embassy ? Is there a bus direct from Laos to Savanakhet ? and any decent hotel up there in nowhere ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mario2008 Posted December 13, 2011 Share Posted December 13, 2011 Look here for reports about Savanakhet, how to go and where to stay included: It has a Thai consulate. http://www.thaivisa.com/forum/topic/189375-latest-reports-of-getting-a-visa-in-the-region/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
