Question about applying for SETV in Savannahkhet, Laos. I read today on an agency's website(the agency does Thai visa runs):
'Tourist Visa, apply if you stayed less than 90 days in past 6 month, show own Thai Book Bank with balance THB 20,000.- up OR print out from your Bank account from home country value USD 700.-up. OR Onward air ticket.'
I've been in Thailand for four months in the past six months: One flight into Thailand visa-exempt(30 days) an extension within the Kingdom of that visa-exempt(30 days), one border run(30 days), an extension within the Kingdom of that visa-exempt(30 days). This totals 4 months. Does that mean I don't qualify for an SETV?
Also, this 'OR Onward air ticket..' part. So if I have the THB 20,000 proof of funds in a bank statement then I do or do not need the onward ticket as well?
Any clarification about this is much appreciated.
TLDR : Answer Summary
The user is inquiring about the qualifications for applying for a Single Entry Tourist Visa (SETV) from Savannakhet, Laos. They have previously stayed in Thailand for over 90 days within the last six months, which appears to disqualify them based on the stated requirements. Additionally, they seek clarification on whether holding a Thai bank statement with the required funds eliminates the necessity of having an onward ticket.
