ORIGINAL POSTER

Hello, the time has come for me to cancel my non ED and get a non B. The cancelling is all clear now, but im.wondering where would be a better place to apply for the non B, Vientiane or Savannakhet. My documents will be ready around nov 20th, so i'd like to ask for some advice on where should i apply. Also, to know if the embassies there are ok with a copy/printed scan of the wp3 or they need it to be the original one.

Best regards, and thanks

For Vientiane you still need an appointment. If you have all the correct documents to apply for the Non Immigrant B visa, both consulates are easy.

For your non-b, ask your employer. It requires a letter from your employer made out directly to the specific consulate.
