What is the best way to travel from Pattaya to Savannakhet for a Non-O visa based on marriage?
Hi, i want to go from Pattaya to Savannahket this month for my Non O based on marriage. How am I best to travel there?
Answer summary
The best way to travel from Pattaya to Savannakhet for obtaining a Non-O visa is to take a bus to Mukdahan, then another bus to Savannakhet. It is recommended to reach Mukdahan a day early, stay overnight, and go to immigration in Savannakhet the next day to collect the visa after 2 PM. Other travel options include overnight buses, driving with stops at various locations, or flying from Bangkok or Utapao to reach the destination. Necessary paperwork includes your passport, marriage certificate, spouse's ID and blue book, along with copies of these documents.

OPThat's what I ment sorry. She's nipping my head here lol might be easier to go get a divorce haha
Ted *******
well i am no expert in that specific issue but if flying internally you only need to show id card not passport but i am not sure if immigration will ask fpr both at the border if you went the ubon - mkdhan route

OPShe said airport will ask for her ID Card too but that's in her married name

why can't your wife just go on her old passport?Jimmy **********
OPScrap that idea they would have my passport lol.

OPCan I stay overnight in Thailand? Reason I ask is my wife's passport is still in her family name rather than her married name. So would mean me going over the border with paperwork then back over to Thailand to wait till next day then obviously back over again to collect.
