Hello Everyone👋

I'm gonna be going to Laos to apply for my Student Visa, due to the situation in Myanmar. My university have agreed to provide me with all the necessary documents and visa letter.

I managed to secure a booking on May 17.

My only concern now is, how is the situation over on Laos? Would it be a smooth process or should I try to get an "A" word to speed up the process? ( i don't know if we are allowed to say the word on this group )

Any words of advice are welcomed. 😁😁

Hi all..

I have a query.. kindly clarify this...

May i know how much possible to apply non b visa in Laos for indian nationality?

If possible means how many days take to get visa???

Thanks in advance

Given the new rules i've been reading about, that you must cancel work permit AND work visa THEN leave the country on the same day, does anyone have any experience doing this from Chiang Mai and reaching a land border on the same day?

Mai Sai would be the closest border -- actually 5 hours by bus from CM... Does anyone know when the border closes?

Another option would be Vientiane... It might be possible to fly to Udon Thani and make it over the border there in a single day... Does anyone know when the VTE border closes?

>> it would be preferable to go to the burmese border to avoid paying for a 1 month Laos visa. If going to Laos, may as well stay and request a 60 day tourist visa, as opposed to a 30-day visa exempt (although I hear you have to get an appointment these days!!)

>> alternatively, does anyone know if the authorities will charge a 500 baht overstay if you leave the country the day after you cancel the visa?

THANKS ALL FOR YOUR ADVICES

I have a visa but if it needs renewing and i try in laos but get refused an extension will i be refused re-entry? Thanks

Posting for a friend.

What is involved to get a 3 month tourist visa in Savannakhet/ Laos?

Hey guys,

I came to Thailand on a 30 day visa exempt and then extended for another 30 days. I have to leave by the 20th of this month and want to apply for a SETV to come straight back.

My question is, which is the best country to go to, to do this? Cambodia, Malaysia, I have no idea. I will go wherever has the easiest and fastest process.

I have both Australian and U.K. passport.

Thanks 😊
