SpoliaOpima Posted September 19, 2016 Share Posted September 19, 2016 My British girlfriend just got a teaching job in bkk and needs to acquire a non-B visa. Savannakhet, Hanoi, Vientiane, Phnom Penh, or KL? Which is fastest/easiest? Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tonray Posted September 19, 2016 Share Posted September 19, 2016 SavannaKhet is very easy and the queue is usually smaller than Vientiane. She must have proper paperwork provided by her school . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eldragon Posted September 19, 2016 Share Posted September 19, 2016 Vientiane is easy too. Probably a little less boring than Savannahket. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope she has had all the documents ready by now that are needed to apply for a Non-B as a teacher such as 'A Police Clearance.' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tezzainthailand Posted September 27, 2016 Share Posted September 27, 2016 Savannakhet is a lot quicker (especially during the middle of the week) than Vientiane, for one thing, the queue at Savannakhet is less than half the queue you get at the Lao capital, but Vientiane and Udon Thani have the advantage of Air Asia flights to Bangkok and the rail connection. Also make sure it's neither a Thai or Lao public holiday as the embassy/consulate will be closed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KhonKaenKowboy Posted September 30, 2016 Share Posted September 30, 2016 It seems like Penang has been an old favorite, guaranteed to be better than kl or sing, but still no guarantee of success. Would you be getting a one year or a 90 day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KhonKaenKowboy Posted October 1, 2016 Share Posted October 1, 2016 Helpful info,thanks....but could you convert a 90 into a 1year multi at a local immigration office? With a valid wp, of course. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
