Hi, everyone. I went to Vientiane(Laos) this week to try get a Non-Immigrant B visa for teaching. It was rejected due to "insufficient paperwork". When I was at the window to apply, the lady said I am missing paperwork regarding the cancellation of my previous work permit from my old job. I have two questions.

1. What exact documents are needed for this requirement?

2. Can I go back to Vientiane to apply for this visa again?

I am a South African.

TLDR : Answer Summary
A South African applicant had their Non-Immigrant B visa application rejected in Vientiane due to insufficient paperwork, specifically missing documents related to the cancellation of their previous work permit. They seek clarity on the exact documents required for this situation and whether they can reapply in Vientiane.

I am going to change my visa due to job change so I want to be prepared. I haven't applied yet.

I don't know, is it being asked by the embassy?

Helpful thread....so if changing schools need tax record and receipt of cancellation WP. Cancel extension of stay too. Noted. :)

Don't forget to cancel the extension of stay. AND... if you don't have a work permit or not paying taxes, then leave the school as soon as possible.

I have also been informed that they need proof of tax from the previous job.

Did you have a work permit and an extension of stay at your last teaching job?

Thanks for the feedback, everyone. How about my 2nd question? I'm asking because when I collected my passport, the officer said, "You can try in another country".

The school can send it as an email or line photo. The embassy will accept that.
