Non O Visa

[suanpai]

I have previously renewed my marriage visa in KL but now living in Chiang Mai. So I was thinking about renewing it in Laos. Some years ago I was only offered a three month visa. I have all the right documents for a multiple entry one year visa. But can anybody tell me if I can renew in Vientiane without problems. Its a long way to KL from Chiang Mai! Many thanks.

A single entry is all you could probably expect.

They expect you to extend it at an immigration Office in Thailand.

Airasia flies Chiang Mai to KL. Probably cheaper than flying to Vientiane if you book it in advance.

KL has open policy to provide multi entry non immigrant O visa with normal ID/marriage paperwork plus 100k in bank account. Other places may provide without, with 100k, with 400k, with 800k or not provide and do not appear to be consistent in there policy. If I were using Laos it would be Savannakhet at this time.

what are the current requirements for a Non Immigrant O visa for laos?

single entry of course?

[kopite]

also, my current situation is. had a single entry Non Imm O visa plus a two month extension, would it possible to get a one year extension, based on my monthly income of 40,000 baht a month?

You have a Thai wife? Proof of 40k monthly income is the requirement for one year extensions of stay from Immigration so if wife is willing and living together you should be able to do that - be sure to apply during last 30 days of permitted entry. If you do not know the normal paperwork required ask or search (it does vary a bit however from place to place).

would that apply even if i have a single entry visa, plus now on a two month extension?

yes im married and we are living together, my wife part owns a company which i have a work permit for.

i would be applying at jomtien immigration with only 7 days left on my visa. anyone point me in the right direction to what paperwork would needed?

many thanks, kopite

Go with wife, her ID card, her home register, proof of local residence (lease or such), photos around home and outside to show house number and inside to show clothing together, proof of income, marriage certificate and the ledger entry of marriage, your passport/arrival card and 4x6cm photos for TM.7 application taken within last six months, copies of everything (suspect two sets are required there) and be prepared to obtain final stamp about 30 days later (you are allowed to stay until then). Those using that facility may be able to add to my list. Cost is 1,900 baht.

many thanks lopburi

would home register and lease agreement have to be same address?

[lopburi3]

No - but she needs a copy of her home register where she is listed - many Thai do not bother to change until own property.

That said you might get an official telling you have to do where she is registered to pass the buck - but to register where live.
