Can someone apply for a Non-B visa using a temporary passport in Thailand?
Quick question, lost passport, not mine.
He is from South Africa, and needs his non b, so he will get a temporary passport, Is it possible to get a non b on a Temporary passport?

Answer summary
The discussion revolves around the challenges faced by a South African individual who lost his passport and is in need of a Non-B visa in Thailand. It is confirmed that he can apply for a Non-B visa using a temporary passport, but he must get the entry stamp from his original Non-B visa in his new temporary passport. Additionally, there are concerns about the acceptance of temporary passports in various countries and the necessity of obtaining a Non-B visa either by applying anew or transferring it from the old passport.

Does South Africa even issue temporary passports?
Sorry a bit late on this, but how did it work out?

He'd definitely need to go to the immigration office and get the entry stamp from the original Non-B stamped into the new passport (even if it's just a temporary passport) so he can exit the country.

OPYes he is closest to khon kaen

OPGot it, best he do that to be safe and not too much running around

@David *********
He might need to prove that he bought the visa with the receipt from the consulate OR he might have to contact the Ministry of Foreign Affairs office here in Bangkok and have them contact the consulate he got the visa at so they can prove he really did get it. I have seen them do that to people who had copies of a Non-B but not the receipt that they bought it

OPHe is in kalasin but before he was in Bkk I'm assuming he can just go into the khon kaen office for his stamp
David **********
OPOK I will inform him of that

I googled around and it appears that a temporary passport might not be accepted in all countries.
David **********
OPHe has a copy of his old non b and passport, but not the passport itself
David **********
OPI was going to send him to vientenne
