orbital777 Posted April 9, 2014 Share Posted April 9, 2014 Hi, just wanted some advice on the current climate with this. I have had 4 back to back tourist visas now. All were double entries. Got the first one in my home country and the final three in Vientiane. They gave me the red stamp last time and said I will need to show proof of income or something like that next time. In any case, I plan to go back home in about 3 months time so I would like to get just a single entry. What are my chances of being able to get one? Does it matter where I go? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Glen Garry Posted April 9, 2014 Share Posted April 9, 2014 What sort of proof of income would they accept? Could it be money paid into a UK bank account on a regular basis? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
orbital777 Posted April 9, 2014 Author Share Posted April 9, 2014 (edited) I can't even remember what they said to be honest. I kind of brushed it off not expecting to ever apply for a tourist visa again. Edited April 9, 2014 by orbital777 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thepool Posted April 9, 2014 Share Posted April 9, 2014 They are looking for evidence of money , sourced from abroad, being paid into a Thai bank account. Would suggest staying away from Laos as you have clearly outworn your welcome. Try somewhere else Panang maybe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
orbital777 Posted April 9, 2014 Author Share Posted April 9, 2014 I don't have a Thai bank account so that isn't really an option for me. My plan as of right now is to head to Phnom Penh and see if they will give me a single entry tourist visa. If they are still giving 30 days to people from G7 countries who enter Thailand by land (nobody seems to know) then I guess that is an option too.

You do keep them for your records? Those may be acceptable evidence of income 30 day visa exempt entries via land border for those with a G7 passport are available but if using this as a means of entry take care the Immigration officers may notice the back to back TV;s and the warning stamp ! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wayned Posted April 9, 2014 Share Posted April 9, 2014 Just remember that unless you use an agent, cambodia takes 4 days to issue/disapprove the visa. You might want to search previous threads as there was link to an agent' posted by ubonjoe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
guavagirl Posted April 10, 2014 Share Posted April 10, 2014 They want you to prove that you are not working illegally in Thailand. If you have online banking just print off a statement and bring that along. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frank James Posted April 10, 2014 Share Posted April 10, 2014 Don't go to KL. They are real dicks when they want to be, and they always want to be, or so it seems. Chok dee. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I got a 30 day stamp yesterday from the koh kong one, but previously to this visa I had a double entry tourist visa Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
