Hello, recently i posted that when we got our type o immigration visa in laos that when we left nong khai border they did not stamp us into Thailand (Even though they told us we where done and we could enter thailand), we did not realize this until 3 months later when we went to activate the type o immigration visa so by that time the latest date of entry to activate the visa had already past.

 

We explained this all to the immigration in chiang mai, they told us to go to laos to get a new type o immigration visa and that we needed to get a stamp of enter into thailand back dated at nong khai border. We got the stamp without any issues as they believed our true story about this whole mistake, crossed out the type o immigration visa we was meant to get activated the first time and then we headed on over to laos to get the type o immigration visa but upon doing this today they said we could not as we had one before... 

 

We only came to get one as the chiang mai immigration told us to and the place we volunteer from that help us get this visa so we could stay in thailand to volunteer.

Now we are quite concerned and this is racking up quite a price so far.. Any advice? please

Has Vientiane placed any kind of stamp in your passport ?  

Hello, the only stamps we have for laos is the laos entry stamp we got yesterday and also we have a laos entry on arrival visa that got stamped when we got it.

They are stricter on issuing non-o visas for volunteer work than any other. Perhaps if you went back with a work permit application receipt they would issue another one.

Your best option may be to apply for a single entry tourist visa.

means you got the thai stamps which you forgot the first time without any problem, that is very good already.

Re the application, did you get new set of documents or did you try to apply with the old set?

We have same issue if people try to apply back to back for the Non B under same Employer which did not process WP yet,

in such cases the Thai Embassy usually refuse to give visa.

 

Sounds to me like another instance where trouble might have been avoided through the checking of one's passport at the point of entry into Thailand?

O come on now that would be too much trouble, taking responsibility for yourself

I am wondering...

What these two posts are meant to accomplish?
