The community clarified that a non-immigrant visa should be booked, and also noted essential rules like the requirement for the account to be in the applicant's name and restrictions regarding previous ED visas.

Yep you need Non-Immigrant as the choice, BUT heed Ron's warnings about having a previous ED visa from anywhere in the last 12 months and that they need an account in their own name

remember when you apply for a 7 day extension it cancels all the days you have remaining and starts from the day you apply for it. That's why @El***
said apply for it as late as possible to get as much out of it as you can

@Bob *********
as late as possible but not go into overstay is the best bet to get those 7 days.. unfortunately.Bob **********
OP@Tod ********
Thanks all good now but the extension of 7 days don’t know how soon I can apply as I want to book flightsRon *******
And if she's had an ED visa from ANYWHERE in the last 12 months, she cannot get an ED visa from Vientiane.

maybe, they will issue a 7 day extension denied stamp to give her a week to get outta thailand BUT sometimes they don't. Only the immigraiton office will answer that questionRon *******

One thing. She has to have the account in her name. If it's you making the account, it will be rejected.
