Anyone had done a DIY visa in Savannaket? I will apply a Non-O visa for my kids (parents with working permit). Will it be troublesome to do a DIY or better use an agency? Agency is charging around 10,000 Thb /person (ASEAN, transportation + hotel with meals + visa fee included)? Is the price reasonable enough than going thru the hassle of immigration?

Thanks for your input..

TLDR : Answer Summary
The conversation focuses on the decision of whether to apply for a Non-O visa for children in Savannaket through a DIY method or to use an agency that charges around 10,000 THB per person. Comments suggest that applying for the visa yourself may be beneficial in avoiding dependency on an agent, and if the agency's price includes all services, it may still be cheaper to do it independently.

If the 10K per person really includes all that, you couldn't do it cheaper yourself.

Better do yourself or you will be locked into the agent every year

Just go to immigration and ask their requirements

How old are your "kids" as they cannot get fined or banned for overstay under certain ages?
