Hi all, I want to confirm if I'm right to advise a Danish friend of mine

He arrived with tourist visa 60 days and already did a 30 day extension.

Now he want to stay another 1 to 2 months.

He was advised to go to the Thai consulate in Vientiane to get a new visa, but I think he will be okay with just a border run and get stamped in on a 60 days visa exception.

Am I right?

I heard about this new thing about have to stay out some days, will this apply in this case?

Hello! I'm going to Vientiane tomorrow, but forgot to book an appontment... And the closest dates available only in about 2 weeks from now. Is it a problem?🥲 Or are there some "helpers" that can let me in without the booking? Thanks for any info! My flight is tomorrow early morning 😓

I want to apply for DTV visa how to do? Who can help?

Question: about the Thai Consulate in Vientiane , Laos.

Has anyone had problems there processing a follower/dependents' (for children or spouse) visa on their volunteer visa application?

My friends are heading there but were told that there might be a problem with this particular embassy which doesn't approve or provide the service for family/follower visas?

Thai Consulate Vientiane. I know I need to book an appointment ahead of visiting.

I am waiting on the arrival of a new passport. It should arrive before Songkran, but it may be delayed by the holidays.

Question: Can I make the consulate appointment with my *old* passport number and use the email confirmation plus the old, canceled passport to enter the Thai Consulate and then apply for a visa in my new passport?

From my understanding, your passport number must match the email confirmation. If I provide all of this evidence, will common sense prevail?

Thanks in advance for your help.

I'm seeing conflicting info on fb and google...does the Thai consulate in Vientiane still operate on next day collection for visas? ( ie. apply Mon morning, collect Tues afternoon)

I’m looking at heading to Vientiane to get a tourist visa from the Thai consulate there. Just to make sure: this type of visa is for a 60 day period of stay max and can be renewed once, isn’t it ?

ATTENTION ALL MEMBERS

LAND BORDERS WITH LAO OPEN

The land borders with Lao opened on Monday for entry from Thailand (they've been open to get out of Lao into thailand for a while now)

The two thai consulates in Lao (Vientiane & Savannakhet) are open and running (they actually always were, what closed was the border not the consulate :P )

The consulate is in Vientiane and it requires you book an online appointment to get in the gate to apply for a visa

this is their website,

This is the link to make an appointment

IF you make an appointment and then miss it you're blocked from the system for a month (I think it's a month but it could be just 10 days :P ) what it means though is you can't use that consulate until you're unlocked and can book another appointment :/

The other thai consulate is in Savannakhet (across the river from Mukdahan)

They are walk up service, this is their website

NOTE: The thai consulate in Vientiane does NOT issue year-long, multi-entry Non-Immigrant visas of any type. Just 90 day single entry.

It's the thai consulate in Savannakhet that used to issue the year-long, multi-entry Non-O's for marriage to a thai and raising half thai children.

It does not list that they offer the year-multi Non-O on the Savannakhet thai consulate website, you write year/multiple on the application form and you give them 5000baht. <- That's how it worked before and hopefully how it will continue to work.

At this time no one knows if they will continue to do it as no one has visa run to Savannakhet for one and reported back in yet.

Here is the entry process to Lao

Good afternoon, hoping for a little bit of advice regarding booking an appointment at the Thai consulate at Vientiane. I'm looking to book an appointment for the back end of August ( Edu visa ) when i go onto the website to book I can only see options available for Tourist, Transit, Non B and further options for Laos residents. Any ideas on what i do? Cheers

Has any one been to the Vientiane Laos Thai consulate since they made the change to online bookings?

Do you know if its necessary to get there early to get a lower que number or if they just call the numbers now from the online booking? Thanks!
