after my tourist visa runs outs 6 months 3 entries..

where can I get a new visa, the last thing I want is an expensive trip back to the uk it was bad enough on the non o having to come back once a year or 15 months ..

i would want another 6 month 3 entries.

thank you

3 entries is 9 months with extension and proper visa validity (6 months from issue date), if the visa validity is less than 6 months the triple entry is useless and you might as well pay for double.

Triple entries are only available in some western countries, the best you will get in the area is double entry from Vientiane or Savannakhet, check out the visa forum for latest info

thank you..

so for example then, visa runs out, off to lao for a double entry visa.. how many times can you go to lao to get a new double entry visa?

thank you

Nothing is set in stone but I think you should be able to get at least 2-3 double entry visas before they tell you to go to another consulate/embassy

If your visa has a 6 month validity you can get almost 9 months out of it by getting 30 day extensions of your first two 60 day entries and doing the 3rd entry just before the visa expires (use before date) and then extending it by 30 days.

The visa expiration date is only the time allowed to use the visa not the amount of time you can stay here on the visa.

After you have used the last entry and your permit to stay ends you can go to Laos and get a two entry visa.

Bali is the nearest location where you can get a 3 entry visa with a 6 month validity period. Australia would be the next location.

Thank you for more replies, all has helped
