Hay all

I have a question about applying for a non O visa at Lao!

I'm currently on an tourist visa extension and my visa is up on the 8th of May

If I want a non O visa from Lao do I need to go to Lao and apply for the visa 15 days before

My current visa is due to expire I have been looking on the Thai embassy website at Lao but It's all in Thai

All I need to know is do I need to apply for the visa 15 days before my current visa expires.

Many thanks for your replies in advance

• If the 'admitted until' stamp in your passport gives you permission to stay until May 8th you must leave on or before that date.
• The new non 'O' has no relevance or connection to your tourist visa or current stay and you don't need to apply 15 days before it expires.

No

You no longer have visa it became of no further use (invalid) the moment you used it to enter the country.

When you leave Thailand the extension of stay will also finish !

An "O" visa (if you qualify for one) can be applied for at your convenience.
