juice777 Posted November 26, 2015 Share Posted November 26, 2015 Hi guys I popped in to a travel agents in soi post office in pattaya They told me I can get a triple entry from Vientiane 11000b for everything is this new? they said I need 200000b in my bank account,but it needs 2 be in there for six months I can get the money but it won't have been in there for six months So my questions are 1 has anyone got one of these? 2 is there a way around the 200000b not being in my bank account for 6 months?

Actually I am not being taken for a ride as I've not booked anything yetI will say I have used this company 4 times and never had a problem, is it possible it's new and people don't know about it yet?

The nearest you can now obtain to a TETV is the new multi-entry tourist visa , which can only be obtained from a Thai Embassy/Consult in your own country Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
juice777 Posted November 26, 2015 Author Share Posted November 26, 2015 (edited) This is what I thought to but I assure you that is not want this company is saying Also if it was a scam why would they add the 200000b bit in your bank because this puts people of applying As far as I know they are a good company I think some one recommended them on here and I have used them 4 times, so I don't think it's a scam a mix up maybe Sent from my SM-G900F using Tapatalk Edited November 26, 2015 by juice777 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thaitero Posted November 26, 2015 Share Posted November 26, 2015 (edited) Officially not possible, but if using right middleman sometimes "not possible" can became possible,,, Btv..It is METV not triple entry Edited November 26, 2015 by thaitero 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
darrendsd Posted November 26, 2015 Share Posted November 26, 2015 (edited) No Embassy issues Triple Entrys anymore What they may be advertising is the METV which would actually give you 3 entrys if you used it then came in on the last date of the Enter Before date stamped on the visa However the chances of Vientiane issuing it are very remote Why don't you go back in and ask them for more info?

It dose sound like one I know! But I can't think of a reason to add the 200000 THB rule because then leas people will take them up on there scam Actually I just been thinking I as sure they mean a METV this would explain the 2000 THB more then a tripple visa as the price for a METV is 5000THB But then my question now is I thought you can only get one in your home country Also is there a way round me not having 200000 THB in my bank for 6 months Sent from my SM-G900F using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thaibreaker Posted November 26, 2015 Share Posted November 26, 2015 Sounds like this is only a mixup in terms from this company. METV, not a triple entry. The real mixup however, is that they probably believe anyone can get it in Vientiane, not only Laotians, or people with residence in Laos. They will soon enough find out that this is not the case, I believe. Only singles can be obtained there, as far as I know. Be free proving me wrong, anyone who actually has been there getting the new METV. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Who is to say that they haven't already acquired a METV for a foreigner from Vientiane despite all the talk about them only being issued in your home country? That has now been two weeks since the 13th November and i haven't heard any reports as yet. I wouldn't be calling it a scam just yet, perhaps they have found a loophole already........................ 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BritTim Posted November 27, 2015 Share Posted November 27, 2015 If confident they are a reputable company, ask for confirmation in writing that they will refund if you can only get a single entry. Reading between the lines, I think Vientiane was originally planning to issue METVs to non residents based on financial proof only. Visa run companies were informed. Then, Vientiane was told they could not do it. I do not think it is a scam, but I do not believe they can deliver what they think they can. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Therefore, if no visa is given then no payment will be taken, or if a single visa is given only 1,000 baht will need to be paid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
