What documents do I need to prepare for my Non O multi-entry visa application in Savannakhet?

And at this time I believe we've covered the bases as far as what the O/P needs to do to get a visa from the thai consulate in Savannakhet based on marriage.

Good Luck (y)

If you haven't booked a hotel, we stayed at Avalon 2, there is also Avalon 1 around the corner. Clean rooms with pool and air con for 600 baht, breakfast extra and about 5-10 mins on tuk tuk to consulate.

Wife's ID card, signed by her

hows about Ho Chi Minn for a multiple these days?

good luck,

My wife and I were there recently, arrived at Mukdahan on Monday, stayed at a local hotel.

Up early Tuesday morning and drove to friendship bridge. Parked at parking area near border and paid over 200 baht for overnight parking. Went to border crossing office for foreigners, filled out a form and paid a fee. Got a bus ticket and proceeded to Savannakhet Thai Consulate. On Laos side various kinds of transport is available and we went to restaurant opposite the consulate and waited till 9. o’clock for office to open. Soon as people lined up we joined them and handed in relevant paperwork and received a voucher to return next day.

Got a hotel close by, stayed the night and returned Wednesday about 1.pm to line up between 2-4. Presented voucher and everything returned with the yearly Non o based on marriage.

Headed back to border crossing completed TM 6, got stamped and hopped back on bus.

Next day reported to local immigration as had to be done within 24 hours. Appears that tuk tuk and taxis generally charge 100 baht per person for transport to Thai Consulate.

Hope this assists as what we did was mostly based on advice from Tod Daniels.

Be aware that if it’s a wet day protective clothing and plastic folders will help as you will find yourself waiting in an outdoors area.

get the people across the road from the Consulate to do your paperwork..quite cheap and they know what you need..maybe check your address is correct on form

Just to add to Tod's comprehensive list. All things copied relating to your wife need to be signed by her. And yes Monday is busy, as you get there Sunday, arrive at consulate before 7.30, opens at 9.30am. And as you are staying Wednesday not rush and queue Tues 1pm, wait until everyone has got theirs and pick up before 4pm. And get form before you queue print at the hotel or somewhere on the Sunday or pick up the shop opposite early. Form needs to be 1 sheet though printed front and back (duplex).

Go early, big queues lately!

Just so you know. Mondays are MAD HOUSE days there because it's the day the visa run companies from Bangkok and Pattaya show up there with their customers..

Seeing as you're already going to be there on Sunday get to the consulate EARLY or you're gonna be at the end of the line believe me

You do NOT need anything from the kids (seeing as you can't get a year-long, multi-entry Non-O visa because you have kids) nor do you need anything other than your thai wife's house book listing as far as house condo papers

Let's go over what you need to get a year-long multi-entry Non-O visa based on marriage to a thai

you need the original rose border marriage certificate (they want to see it)

You need copies of

the front&back of the marriage certificate

the front&back of your thai wife's i/d card

her thai house book listing

the data page of your passport

the lao visa and entry stamp

A filled out application with two passport sized photos on it and 5000baht

okay, take a deep breath.

half of what you have listed you don't need

there is NO advantage giving them too much crap
