happysanook Posted July 18, 2014 Share Posted July 18, 2014 (edited) Anyone know of the current status of back to back tourist visas at Vientiane? I don't mean getting turned away at the border. I mean actually receiving the visa at the consulate. Any reports of being denied recently? Regards. Edited July 18, 2014 by happysanook Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Puyai Posted July 18, 2014 Share Posted July 18, 2014 Just came back today with my second double entry visa. I also have 4 years worth of non-b's. Straight though no questions asked.

Somtamboopala Posted July 19, 2014 Share Posted July 19, 2014 Should there be no problems at the border or airport? I am also going to apply for my Ed Visa in Vientiene, but I already have 3 back to back visa exempts and worried i will be refused entry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SandyFeet Posted July 19, 2014 Share Posted July 19, 2014 Good to hear. I'll be applying in Vientiane this week and heading back to Thailand. I'll keep looking for reports to see if there are any changes. I wonder if it might make any difference if you go back over the friendship bridge or through the immigration in the Nong Khai train station. Anyone know if one is more harda##ed than the other? I'll start a new thread to let you all know how it goes for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DerkMR Posted July 19, 2014 Share Posted July 19, 2014 A loose friend of mine just has been to Vientiane with Visa exempt stamp, did some shopping and got the next stamp when comming back. Nothing required although he was prepared with cash, short term rental agreement and schools documents. I wouldn't have expected this Bye, Derk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pkspeaker Posted July 19, 2014 Share Posted July 19, 2014 so i guess the new policy is the consulates and embassys will issue tourist visa's at their discretion, which is often liberal since there is a high fee involved for a small amount or work(a stamp). but this will not necessarily get the 'tourist' into the country Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aljones15 Posted February 7, 2015 Share Posted February 7, 2015 A friend of mine mentioned being asked for a Bank Statement and hotel reservations in Laos (he wasn't specific on where he got the triple entry, but I guess it was not Vientaine). Anyways, having failed to meet the requirements for a tourist visa in Jakarta does anyone know if Vientaine needs Bank Statement and hotel reservations and if they need reservations for how long?

They ask for nothing more than your passport and a completed application form with photos attached plus the 2000 baht fee.. They will do a 2 entry visa. The only ask for proof or residence and financial proof if you have gotten several visas there and that is a stamp on the visa telling you that it will be needed the next time you apply.

VIPinthailand Posted February 7, 2015 Share Posted February 7, 2015 (edited) 7 years in Thailand with tourist visa Vientiane embassy asked me copies of my bank booklet and copy of her Id card as she was inviting me. I didn't have her Id and they didn't ask anything more. I just said next time I will make a copy of her Thai passport and will join it with her sponsoring letter.

aljones15 Posted February 7, 2015 Share Posted February 7, 2015 I thought they also wanted a photocopy your first passport page and your exit stamp or something like that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

br12stol Posted February 8, 2015 Share Posted February 8, 2015 I applied for double entry in Dec 14 without ever going there before (one previous Savarnakhet Aug 13) was refused and only given single. stamp on single entry saying proof of residence and financial income next time. red stamp on top of visa saying PP holder travels to Thailand several times under tourist visa, which may result in refusal in future.

Did you applied in person? Anything noticeable happened when you applied ? You may consider getting a new passport. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
