If I'm going to Laos, especially if it's to apply for a DTV visa, can I just go by bus? To get a visa on entry, they say one needs to have a return ticket already booked, and the same goes for the Thai embassy in Laos when applying for DTV.

My question: can this return ticket simply be a return bus ticket? Or does it necessarily have to be a plane ticket? And if so, please explain why. I need answers from people who have a clear answer from someone who knows, not someone who's just guessing and think they know.

Thanks!

I am planning travel to Bangkok 26th or 30th April from Vietnam and Still Visa on arrival right for Thailand? I am holding Indian Passport. Thank you so much

Hi everyone.

I applied for the tourist visa on Friday evening, and my flight is on 21st. In case I don't get it on time, can I get the visa on arrival instead, stay for 2 weeks and then exit and re-enter with the tourist one I'm yet to receive?

Thank you in advance and have a lovely day ahead! 🌸

I am traveling to Thailand on the 25/4/25 to 25/5/25 so 30 days in total,I'm a UK citizen, do I need a visa? , some say I do and some say I don't ? Who's right? . Thank you for any advice.

Hi all. Anyone been to Laos recently? My last visit was pre covid, so wondering how things work currently.

According to my (Danish) ministry of foreign affairs, it should still be possible to obtain a visa on arrival aside from the evisa option

Would prefer the former, so would love to hear any recent experience.

Cheers!

Hi guys now they have stopped a 60 day visa on arrival, can you still apply on line as before?

Hi can anyone recommend a good visa agent in Pattaya? I would like to extend my visa on arrival.

In the near future I would like to aquire a visa for long term stay aswell, so a trustworthy agent would be perfect.

A friend from the USA is planning his retirement in Thailand. His plan is to enter the Kingdom and then apply for a Retirement visa type O. He asked me if he gets a 30 day visa on arrival or is it 60 days on arrival. I wasn't sure. Does anyone here know which on he would get?

Anybody knows if it’s possible to enter on a normal 30 or 60 day visa on arrival instead of using the DTV? Becaue my passport expires in just a bit less than six months.

Hello, I have a DTV visa that I need to get stamped outside of Thailand.

So I'm going to Ranong in 3 days to do this, but I'm hearing two conflicting options.

One comes from a local who offers his services for 2,600 baht with the speedboat that departs from Ranong Pier, including the Myanmar visa fee.

The other version says there's no visa on arrival, and that I have to apply for an e-visa online, which takes a maximum of 3 days to receive by email.

Which version is correct, please?

Thank you for your answers.
