hi I want to renew my tourist visa for as long as I can.

my visa expires on the 22nd of dec this month in four days.

I am australian.

Im thinking tonight I print out the documents for the application for a 90 day visa, tomorrow I catch the bus to vientien, loas, go to the embassy and apply for a 90day visa, bus it back the same day??

is that a good idea?

Did you get a 30 day extension of your 60 day entry at immigration.

It is next day service for the tourist visa. Apply morning of one day and pick-up the next afternoon. Info here: http://vientiane.thaiembassy.org/vientiane/en/consular/consular_check/

Would suggest you plan to stay in Vientien until you have your passport ! An overnight stay is required.

I suggest you read the reports for Vientiane here: http://www.thaivisa.com/forum/topic/189375-latest-reports-of-getting-a-visa-in-the-region/

There are hotels in the range of 500 baht up to 2000 baht or more
