beano2274 Posted October 16, 2012 Share Posted October 16, 2012 just go to another consulate in another country should be no problems. Has been mentioned on here before that some consulates do this, the easy away around it is to change consulate. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aarn Posted October 16, 2012 Share Posted October 16, 2012 Penang has been very strict since new staff came in ~ 2 years ago. Phnom Penh you'll get it but may help to go via an 'agent'. Most reports on thaivisa.com suggest Savvanakhet (Laos) is the place to go. AA 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DannyDakota Posted October 17, 2012 Share Posted October 17, 2012 Haven't been for a year or two but it never used to be a problem in KL if you just want a single entry tourist visa. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IMA_FARANG Posted October 17, 2012 Share Posted October 17, 2012 (edited) Did they give you a ALL RED rejection stamp or notice in Penang? If it is red you may have a problem getting another visa anywhere in Southeast Asia. That is like a signal to other Thai consulates that you have been rejected. If it is NOT red you may have another chance....but be aware that even a non-red rejection is probably your last warning....you're near the end of their tolerance on back-to-back tourist visas. Even if another Thai condulate gives you another visa, the end is probably near. Usually a rejection means they are begining to think you're not a really a tourist but actually working in Thailand.

Maestro Posted October 17, 2012 Share Posted October 17, 2012 IMA_FARANG, I haven't seen anybody in this topic mention a rejection stamp or notice. Have you? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bangkokburning Posted October 18, 2012 Share Posted October 18, 2012 That consulate has been a nightmare for years. Red stamp is no matter...they tossed my pp back at me and told me to piss off down the road. It's not always about a red stamp. I even had a bank statement fron US and return ticket to US.

freedomnow Posted October 18, 2012 Share Posted October 18, 2012 Would a double entry be possible in Savvanakhet (Laos) straight after using a triple tourist visa from UK ? My passport is new and prior to triple, I was not in Thailand for a couple of years so it is not littered with Thai visa stamps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My passport is new and prior to triple, I was not in Thailand for a couple of years so it is not littered with Thai visa stamps. Just my experience: My passport is somewhat "littered". I have 2 triple-entries (from USA), a couple of singles, and a double. Just added another double at Vientiane. Used an agent there who said it would not be a big deal to get another one. He was correct, one more double delivered to me next-day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bangkokburning Posted October 20, 2012 Share Posted October 20, 2012 (edited) It's not cut and dry. I have survived years and years and years on TRs (51), an entire year by choice. Now I am non - o. Never a red stamp. I pretty much had a good system. I could specuate why some and not others but that is all it would be. I think total number visas first, nationality is second, other visas other than Cam/Lao, visas from home country for starts. Lack.of red stamps. It will.only get tougher year on year for the runners. Home countries are also cracking down. Europe not easy, UK has changed and US is full of hassles.

ubonjoe Posted October 21, 2012 Share Posted October 21, 2012 Not that I am aware of. Only non-o to visit friends has ended and for having a Thai child has gotten harder. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
