Which Thai Consulates issue tourist visas despite a warning remark from Vientiane?
Which Thai Consulates don't care about how many tourist visas you have in your passport and won't deny your application for having a warning remark stamped in from Vientiane?
Answer summary
The query revolves around which Thai Consulates might overlook previous tourist visa warnings, particularly those stamped by Vientiane, which generally indicate a higher scrutiny for visa applicants. Community suggestions indicate that consulates in places like Ho Chi Minh City, Hanoi, and Yangon could be potential options, but success rates vary as many warn about the increasing difficulty in obtaining tourist visas due to past usage and remarks. Some users also suggest the strategic option of applying from the home country or considering new passports as a last resort.

Once you have the remark other Consulates in the region, in 90% the cases, will not issue you a new Tourist Visa. As other members suggested a new passport really is not a big help. I'll not give a guideline on how to beat the system, but it is basically still easy to stay up to 18 month without major hassle, after that the air get's thinner. Reflect your situation and make a proper plan.

It's gonna be a crap shoot, you can try HCMC, Hanoi or Yangon. Although there are reports that they are looking with a more critical eye at people with many tourist visas in their passports.
I'd say sooner or later you're going to have to face the fact that you can't live here on tourist visas as easy as you once could.

Did Vientiane issue you a new Tourist Visa along with the remarks?

@Matt ******
that means you're done in Vientiane and Savannakhet as far as tourist visas are concerned.

Yes, they issued the visa with a stamp that says "Remark: the holder of this passport used a tourist visa several times which may result in refusal of visa in future"James ********
