Any recommendations on getting a non b multiple one year visa in vientiange
Answer summary
The discussion revolves around the challenges of obtaining a Non-B multiple entry one-year visa in Vientiane, Laos. It highlights that only 90-day single entry Non-B visas are available there. Participants recommend alternatives, such as applying in Penang or Kota Bharu, Malaysia, where year-long, multi-entry Non-B visas are more readily issued. They also mention requirements regarding work permits and documents needed for visa extensions and express frustrations over inconsistent rules applied by different immigration offices.

Kota Bahru Malaysia also issues the 12 Month Multi-Entry. Penang and Kota Bahru are the only Consulates in the region issuing 12 Month Multi-Entry B Visas

EVERY extension of stay, no matter the length of time they're issued for is 1900baht. period, end of story. IF you are paying more, something is not right. :/

Interesting , coz the one year extension at the immigration on samui , i got told , only if my wp is 80.000 baht

and my paperwork from our company where i am employed with since 5 years is about 120 pages of copies of all kind of documentation about that company

You could always get a 90 day Non-B and then just apply for a yearly extension at the immigration office like most people that work here do.

Usually the reason people get those year-long, multi-entry Non-B's is that their company cannot supply the documentation to support getting a yearly extension inside the country.

Other than Savannakhet issuing year-long, multi-entry Non-O visas based on marriage, NEITHER Vientiane or Savannakhet have issue year-long, multi-entry visas of ANY type for a LONG time now.
