bkkheat Posted August 5, 2015 Share Posted August 5, 2015 Hi, I would like to get my non-B visa, I am from Australia. I was thinking of going to Laos or Cambodia, but hear that they can refuse you for whatever reason and it is harder. So, where is the best place?

ubonjoe Posted August 5, 2015 Share Posted August 5, 2015 Laos is not a problem as long as you have all the required paperwork. If not teaching you will need a work permit application approval letter from the Labor Ministry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bkkheat Posted August 5, 2015 Author Share Posted August 5, 2015 To get the work permit application approval, I thought you need to get the Non B first? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ubonjoe Posted August 5, 2015 Share Posted August 5, 2015 The work permit can be applied for with a tourist visa or visa exempt entry. The work permit will not be issued until you have the non-b visa. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bkkheat Posted August 5, 2015 Author Share Posted August 5, 2015 OK, so can just apply for the WP, they will give me an approval letter and with that, I can use that to get the Non B...... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Too Posted August 5, 2015 Share Posted August 5, 2015 Hiello bkkheat, I first went to the Thai Embassy in Vientiane to apply for a Non-B which was good for 3 months, got back to Thailand to apply for a WP at the local Labor Office and then went to the immigration office to make a 1-year extension of my Non-B. This is what I did. Good luck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fireplay Posted August 5, 2015 Share Posted August 5, 2015 The best place is to get it in your home country. I go back every year for one. No paperwork. Nothing. I never get a wp either...so easy 5 minutes and bang finished. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was much easier for me to apply for and obtain a Non-B at the Thai Embassy in Vientiane, Laos than at the Thai Embassy in my country, so you should check out and see what documents you will have to submit to them and how long it will take you, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
